:We do have a policy at [[Tardis:Format for television stories]] which specifies that the plot should be done episode-by-episode, which makes sense as you can include the cliffhangers there and it'd be the closest possible match to the action as it unfolded on-screen. — [[User:Rob T Firefly|Rob T Firefly]] - '''[[User talk:Rob T Firefly|Δ]][[Special:Contributions/Rob T Firefly|∇]]''' - 21:08, October 11, 2011 (UTC) | |||

I am the principle editor of the Colony In Space page. I have opted to write the plot summary as a single essay, not breaking it down episode-by-episode. Consequently, on more than one occasion I have added a description of the cliffhangers at the end, only to have this cliffhanger list removed by other users. Am I running against established Wikia policy?
It seems up to the discretion of the writer whether to summarize the plot as a single essay or in episodic format. If they opt for the former, it would be useful to include a list of the cliffhangers. If policy doesn't allow for this, can/should it be changed?
