Talk:Civil Wars (The Legend of Korra)

Scope
This article should cover both parts of the episode. It is Wiki policy to have only one article for a two part episode, like Exodus, The Trip or Graduation Day. The article should be moved to Civil Wars and then incorporate the information of both parts. -- SchrutedIt08 (talk) 07:23, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Could you link to this policy? Apart from the titles, there's little to distinguish these two episodes from any other two consecutive episodes. Also, they are reviewed separately, so have separate notability.  Sandstein   08:05, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Link here. "Multipart episodes should have only one article. Thus, if two episodes have the same title, with the exception of (Part I) and (Part II) as a suffix, both links should point to the same episode." -- SchrutedIt08 (talk) 08:13, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Hm, that's some Wikiproject page, not a policy or guideline. I think that wouldn't work well here. You'd need to stuff content from both episodes into each section - double synopsis, double ratings, double reviews. That's confusing to a reader. It's easier to continue to develop each episode in a separate article.  Sandstein   08:40, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't see any real issue with having a single article for both parts. There are plenty of these cases and these seem to manage quite well. It's just a matter of using section headings where necessary. I can actually see some benefit being able to compare ratings and production information for the two parts in the same article. -- Aussie Legend  ( ✉ ) 09:37, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm in agreement with AussieLegend. Aside from the fact that it is the recommended (i.e. preferred) method of dealing with such things (I actually can't find a two-part episode that actually uses two articles instead of just linking to one), I really don't think anyone is going to be confused.  All the articles I've ever encountered that comprise both parts of a two-parter were perfectly understandable.  You look at something like Strawberries and Cream or Brave New World, and it's clear and concise and it will be exactly the same thing here as long as section headings and proper grammar and what not are used.  Having all the information together in one place will allow readers to more easily compare and contrast the two parts, which I think is beneficial.  Stretching it across two articles is a waste of space to my mind.  It requires more maintenance for editors and additional browsing for readers. -- SchrutedIt08 (talk) 11:21, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
