Update: the discussion has now evolved: '''[[Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (television)#RfC Episode Article Naming conventions]]''' - a debate over the use of disambiguation titles for episode articles of a TV show when no disambiguation is needed. Also, when disambig titles are used for episode articles should they be (ShowName) or (ShowName episode). All are invited to join the discussion and give their input. -- [[User:Ned Scott|Ned Scott]] 02:23, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
== Episode naming and dates. ==
I can think of only one series this applies to, and that is Battlestar Galactica, however, there may be more. Can anyone point me in the direction of a convention for naming episodes when two or more series have the same title, but were made at different times? Currently, for example, we have [[Take the Celestra (Battlestar Galactica)]] and [[Act of Contrition (Battlestar Galactica)]], both using the usual naming convention, except that the former is from the original 1978 series and the latter from the 2004 remake. Only [[The Hand of God (Battlestar Galactica)]] is disambiguated any further because that episode title occurs in both versions.
My own personal suggestion, as a starting point for discussion, is for the above examples to become, respectively, [[Take the Celestra (Battlestar Galactica 1978)]] and [[Act of Contrition (Battlestar Galactica 2004)]]. Note that I am not a big fan of making double parenthethis in article names, which is why I did not put them around the years, but if this is an issue, perhaps a hyphen instead? --[[User:BlueSquadronRaven|<font color="blue">'''BlueSquadron'''</font><font color="black">'''Raven'''</font>]] 22:20, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
