Seeingas The End of Time is now difinately a two-parter story, I was wondering if we should start to merge the other two-parters like Human Nature/The Family of Blood. They are the same stories and more or less share the same trivia and casts, they are considered the same stories by RTD and DWM so I don't see why we can't merge them. For now the pages can just be called The Sontaran Stratagem/The Poison Sky as both titles are valid for now. Maybe the second title could be bracketed. The opening article can say 'The Impossible Planet and The Satan Pit are two episodes making a two-part story of Series 2.' Or something like that. For now I think Utopia should probably keeps it's own page. For now. Thoughts? Taccer 07 22:35, November 19, 2009 (UTC)

I have thought this a good idea for a while. just as long as the second episode re-directs to the new title. --Stardizzy2 01:38, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
I prefer the current system in which they are kept separate. Doug86 10:35, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
I prefer the current system I think merging them would be a mistake. Plus it would take forever to edit due to the pages being so long and it wouil dbe slow on old computers. --Catkind121 13:18, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
I also prefer the current system, which keeps the information separate.
Much like the Stargate Wiki doesn't combine its multi-parters, I don't think in this instance we should merge these TV stories 2 parters. --Tangerineduel 15:01, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
We should keep the pages separate. They have different names, they are different episodes. Merging them wouldn't really be helpful. -<Azes13 18:21, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
