Why have separate Character and Cast sections?[edit]

Hi. The article originally had a single section for "Characters and Cast" that listed information in the following manner: (a) the name of the character, (b) the actor that played the role, in parentheses, then (c) a description/discussion of the character (like so: Juno (Katrina Halili) - a rival of Sabina).

However, this unified "Characters and Cast" section has been revised (twice as of this writing), being split into two sections -- a separate "Characters" section, and a "Cast" listing -- each time without explanation. I'd like to know why is such a divided presentation of the info preferable to the original combined format?

I don't see any advantages with having separate sections for Characters and Cast. First, it splits closely related information. If I wanted to know who portrayed Juno, I would have to search in one place; and then, if I wanted to know who Juno is, I'd have to look in another. However, for TV series, "Who is Juno?" almost always connects the Character/role to the Actor, so I believe it's just intuitive to put the answer(s) in one place/section.

Secondly, having separate Cast and Character sections actually duplicates the list of characters: one to list the actors, and again for the character descriptions. Aside from containing redundancy, this lengthens the article -- particularly for listings of a large number of characters (which is the case with Majika).

For insight, looking at how other articles on TV series handle Characters/Cast, so far the ones I've seen all combine Characters and Cast into one section: Lost, C.S.I., Buffy the Vampire Slayer, 24 to name a few. I don't see why the same shouldn't be applied to Majika.

May I have other Wikipedians' thoughts on this? Thanks. --Mercurio 16:26, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Majika is one of my personal favorite shows on GMA mostly because angel locsin is in it and the fantasy format is so amusing in a way so ........

Can I edit with my personal observations and revelations from the show? Because the article seems rather boring EVEN with the addition of the story, so it helps if I edit the profiles... May I? Heran et Sang'gres 12:43, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

=[edit]

The Majika web site says that Eloida's real child is Argo and not Juno. This means the wiki must be updated. See http://www.igma.tv/showcast.php?showid=174

Cleanup please. This one gets too much opinionated, as if a child was writing this article.61.9.117.213 17:57, 29 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Copyediting needed[edit]

The episodes section needs copyediting for format and wording. RJFJR (talk) 03:41, 1 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
