Forum:DVD releases - own articles?
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
Story releases, box sets, new series, and so on. Should each DVD release have its own article? There is much potential information that could be contained on those pages which perhaps might not be relevant on the story pages.
So what are people's thoughts?

- I think the boxed sets with multiple serials should get their own pages, but the DVDs for single serials should just be put in the serial's article. -Azes13 13:34, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I see this is the current policy (and the reasons for it are sound).
When classic series season boxsets are eventually released, things are going to get a bit complicated, if they're not already complicated enough with the recently announced Davros boxset, the re-releases of certain stories (the "o-ring" slipcovers), and two-story boxsets. Going by boxsets, we'll end up with duplication of information. My idea is to simply to have pages for each season on DVD. For example, Season 12 on DVD could contain a list of the stories in that season and details of their individual releases and what boxsets they are on, plus details of the season boxset (which it's eventually out).
I have some more questions about the DVD releases:
- Some of the DVD sections in story pages have titles of special features linked to their own pages, like making-of documentaries, but I have yet to see any actual pages for these. Should I create pages or just remove the links?
- Could a link be added to the relevant DVD release page on the Restoration Team website?
That's about it, I think.
