Edited out Endora Lenox as Ethan's niece. Ethan is a half-sibling to Fox, Fancy and their unnamed sister through their mother Ivy but the unnamed son of Eve, Fox, Fancy and the unnamed sister are Endora's siblings through their father Julian. Endora and Ethan are not related. Endora's father once thought Ethan was his son so you might be able to make an argument that they are sort of step-siblings but they certainly aren't uncle and niece. user: ksofen666

[edit] Dates

Per the Manual of Style, dates should never be written in the 5/6/07 style and always, if they contain both a month and a day, as May 6, 2007. Users who are logged in will then be able to see the date in their preferred style, as May 6, 6 May, or whatever else. The use of 5/6/07 can also lead to confusion as to whether or not May 6 or June 5 was intended.

the info was fixed so I don't think the page needs to be deleted anymore... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lisah13 (talk • contribs) 06:07, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Family

Why, exactly, do family members need an explanation of their relationship in parentheses next to their name, like "Sam Bennett (father)"? He's listed in the "parents" section, so it's obvious that he's Ethan's father, and the same goes for the rest of the relationships. Aside from explanations in the "other relatives" section, the stuff in parentheses, except for (adopted) and (biological), and maybe (deceased), just clutter up the infobox. — Spanish lullaby (talk) 03:43, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Because that's how all the other pages do it. You can't assume anything. Sam is a woman and a man's name. These indicators are part of all the other soap articles, why should the Ethan page be different? As for the other relationships, you can't assume, you have to spell it out especially when HALF relations are involved. You may know but others don't. We've added this information in all the infoboxes as it was previously in the lists. It's never been an issue, this is the first time I've seen anyone complain about something as consistent as the infobox. KellyAna (talk) 04:48, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Gwen/Ethan/Theresa

Did Ethan remarried Gwen?--M42380 (talk) 23:10, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Gwen revealed in January that, because she never told Ethan that she was pregnant with and gave birth to their son, their divorce was null and void, so they're still legally married. — Spanish lullaby (talk) 23:38, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
