 : I agree with having separate pages, at the very least for collections (and will probably create ''[[Thunderbirds Complete Collection]]'' if this passes). [[User:Cookieboy 2005|Cookieboy 2005]] [[User talk:Cookieboy 2005|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 21:01, 9 June 2023 (UTC)
+:: This is definetly an area where I feel the wiki's lacking and something I'd like to see in some form or another. However, I'm not convinced that each individual release should receive its own page: I feel that a subpage for each thing with at least one home video release would suffice and allow us greater depth to talk about differences between releases while still giving space for going more in depth on the quirks of each individual release. I also think that redirects should be created at <tt><nowiki>[[Story Title (home video)]]</nowiki></tt>, or similar, such as [[The Daleks (home video)]], as this is very helpful for linking: you can link to this instead of a regular story page and use the [[T:PIPE|pipe trick]] when linking to a page about home video releases would be more appropriate.
+:: I feel that, if ''[[The Collection]]'' boxsets get their own pages, regular 'New Who' series boxsets ought to as well, but, again, I think that separate pages are overkill. Surely a <tt>/Home video</tt> subpage of the relevant series page would suffice? Redirects could probably exist from names like [[The Collection Season 12]], but I don't see why a subpage wouldn't work. I feel that boxsets collecting stories that aren't from 1 series, such as ''[[Lost in Time (DVD box set)|Lost in Time]]'' and ''[[The Davros Collection]]'', should still receive pages and be {{tlx|main}}ed from the relevant subpages.
