[edit] POV
Please keep to factual details, dont put "some believe that..." or "however, some reckon...", just keep the facts, dont assume anything. Also, don't add your own POV, dont call a character "cute" or "girlish" based on your own personal likes of the character, keep it encyclopedic.TR (talk) 16:16, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
- I would consider "cute" to be an objective characteristic, not necessarily subjectively appealing. Kittens are cute, whether or not you like kittens. Belle pullman (talk) 00:16, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

- Cute is a pretty objective definition, and directly relates to the portrayal of kitten characters. And I'd have said my domain was full of roller skating trains more than cute kittens, but I am trying to up the feline content! :) Belle pullman (talk) 22:16, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Page created
Please pardon me if I have been overly forward in just starting this page. My motivation is that each of these Cats characters is of interest and referenced elsewhere, however individually there is not an awful lot of information on each character. Therefore it seems logical to me that rather than have 15-20 odd stub pages with a paragraph or two each, combining all this information in one article is more efficient, and also makes for easier comparison between the roles and the productions.
Cats is becoming very popular as a regional/amateur production, meaning there are a lot of people being cast in these roles and searching for information about them. It would be inappropriate to clutter up the main Cats article with this information, I hope this is a better place for it.
I have just put in the basic outline for most characters, obviously there is still a lot to be done as far as cast information, role requirements, and references are concerned. I have copied across information from those who have their individual pages, as I think it would be appropriate to merge them into this one article.
I hope others will help with this page - I really should be writing an essay! Belle pullman (talk) 15:05, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] ALL the Jellicles?
When I started this page, the intent was to make a place for information about the smaller roles in Cats. Larger roles, such as Munkustrap or Bombalurina, have separate pages already... however there's not always much information on these characters, despite their being principals in the show. So, should we include every cat named in "The Naming of Cats" on this page? It would seem to make more sense in the scope of the article beyond the musical. Bombalurina (cat) for example, contains little more information than Electra (cat). Onstage Bombalurina is one of the most featured and memorable, Electra the least, but does that reflect on their importance here? Belle pullman (talk) 11:44, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
