I agree, it is subthread, one that I didn't think would go on this long, and again, I'm not seriously pushing for this. It was meant to be simply an extension of the idea of labeling episodes and other entries which were nothing more than descriptions of fictional events (i.e. plot re-caps). But again, I'm not really trying to push it as any global policy. I apologize for taking up space with this.

P.S. I apologize for taking up space with this apology as well! P.S.S. I apologize for that last apology too! .... and so on! ;-)

I disagree, but this whole subthread is a digression from the main point. You're suggesting that Wikipedia have a global guideline or policy of putting a parenthetical comment in the titles of articles about fictional things (In addition to Timwi's objection, the presence of a parenthetical phrase in a title would then have two completely different possible meanings which is IMO a bad idea) but the original subject was Wikiprojects that decide to disregard global Wikipedia policies in favor of their own "local" ones. If this suggestion were to be adopted as policy, what would we do about WikiProject Wormhole X-treme when it decides that _their_ policy is never to use parentheses in the titles of articles relating to that show? _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@Wikipedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
