(II)

I removed (II) from the issue titles. I assume the II represents Volume, but that is not needed. StarIV 20:35, 23 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Volume 2?

Is it actually volume 2 of Buffy on Dark Horse or is it rather a new series altogether, as "SEASON EIGHT" is written as part of the title on the left margin...~Zythe^{Talk to me!} 20:17, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is this article really necessary?

Do we truly need an article about a single storyarc in a recently debuted comics series, when we have no idea as yet how much of an impact this storyline will make on the Buffyverse or on the comics world? It seems extraneous, especially since there is already an article for the series as a whole. - Pennyforth 20:00, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see your point that there is some overlap. However having the separate articles allows "The Long Way Home" article to focus on the writing and plot synopses of this particular story arc, and the "Season 8" article to focus on the gradual development of the series as a whole which can look to the future and ongoing developments. This is jusy my opinion, but it maybe that merging could result in weakening the encyclopedia because many people would write synopses for each issue on that page. I agree we don't "truly need" the article, but then there are not many articles on Wikipedia that we "truly need". I prefer to ask the questions, "Does having this article weaken the integrity of Wikipedia? Are there people that will find the article? useful" In my opinion having this article may prove useful to hundreds (if not more) of readers who wish to follow the continuation of the notable Buffy series in more detail. -- Buffyverse 23:04, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
