[edit] Senior partner

Is Eames or Goren the Senior partner? Her bio says she is.

[edit] Eames/Goren

Eames is the senior partner technically, but when they're investigating, Goren usually seems to be the one who leads the way...

Even if Eames is the senior partner, when Eames was on leave and Goren was partnered with Bishop, Goren would've been the senior partner there, no? I wouldn't have thought of Bishop as the senior detective. 71.230.26.182 03:27, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Recuring characters means recuring

Will people please stop adding people who have only appeard in one episodes. DanDud88 16 May 2007

It says "major, notable, and recurring," not simply "recurring." I don't know why this is difficult to understand --Craverguy 19:16, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Where does it say that? IT says Recurring Characters Then below it lists The Medical Examiners ect. DanDud88 16 June 2007.

At the very start of the article, it says: "This is a list of major, notable, and recurring characters appearing in the American television police procedural and legal drama Law & Order and its franchise." --Craverguy 23:07, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Happy now, iv edit it so Notable apperences has its own section. DnDud88 17 May 2007

[edit] Adding new characters

Is it all right to update the list with the new cast changes coming up in the fall?

[edit] Notable appearances

Is there any rhyme or reason to the order of the listings under this section outside of separating by the main show name? It's really quite difficult to follow as it is. If there is no objection, I might attempt to alphabetize the names by surname. Wildhartlivie 13:38, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Olivia Benson status

Why is she assigned as a "Junior Detective"? I realize that usually in the L&O universe, it's a junior and senior team. We know Elliot's been in SVU for 12+ years. But if Fin was promoted to Senior Detective status, surely Olivia's earned it by now...--24.168.214.199 (talk) 03:08, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
