Those presenting "detailed articles" or "good general overviews" as mutually incompatible are presenting a false dichotomy. There's no reason we can't have *both* an episode list and a more detailed article for each episode. We do have lists of minor planets (for loading, broken into chunks of 10000) which just list the name, number, provisional designation, discoverer and discovery date, additionally some (though not yet all) minor planets have more detailed articles that fall under the list, for those who want to know more. There's no reason to pick one or the other when we can do both and not neglect a significant component of our readers.
Unless disk space suddenly got way more expensive?
