Politely, do you think the wiki is best served by developing procedure for non-covered series based on ''a series that is likely to become covered as soon as the forums are open again'' and our desire to apply it to ''a series that almost everyone here thinks should be covered on this wiki''? Or should we just take the bitter pill that this particular page is less complete until the inclusion debate clearly renders it valid and we then come back to this issue?

::(Well, Najawin said the same thing as I did, but I'd already typed this out, and I thought of a neat metaphor, so.) | |||
:: @Epsilon: well, there's the thing: ''Brenda and Effie'' is entirely the wrong case on the basis of which to rework the default format of [[:Category:Real world series with DWU connections|Category:Real world series with DWU connections]], since, precisely due to the ''extremely plentiful'' relations it has to already-valid DWU works, we here are all counting on it being validated in the near future. ''Star Trek'' is a much more accurate example of the kind of pages we should ''expect'' to exist in this category of pages. | |||
:: Proposing we change the default procedure for pages like this because of ''Brenda & Effie''{{'}}s idiosyncrasies is not unlike proposing that swans all change their beauty standards to accommodate the Ugly Duckling. The solution here is to recognise that the Ugly Duckling ain't a swan, even if we might temporarily be forced to keep it in the same pond as the swans for lack of a better solution.
