Plot synopses

Plot synopses this long should be in the sections on the individual episodes, not here.--WickerGuy (talk) 02:29, 27 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Merger of episodes to list

edit

A large amount of episodes exist, but it would be good to have them merged into this article. They are contain the same information previously provided in the articles themselves. They also appear to go against policy WP:DIRECTORY/WP:PLOT as well. FockeWulf FW 190 (talk) 17:13, 26 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

  • I respectfully disagree. Most of the episodes are well known enough (especially the Harlan Ellison episodes) to rate full-fledged articles of their own. If this was a barely-remembered bland show, I would agree, but within SF television, the program is a classic and, imho, rates individual articles. Thanks.

    • I agree with Sir Rhosis. Having the full plot summary, actors, directors, years, etc. is applicable for a show like this where each episode was entirely self-contained--unlike continuing episodes of a series with a linear plot, such as a sitcom. Recommend going back and re-establishing pages for each episode to its fullest and eliminating re-directs. Andreldritch (talk) 03:48, 14 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
I'll restore pages back to articles in the next few days if no one raises any objections to it.FockeWulf FW 190 (talk) 22:43, 16 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
  • I also agree with Sir Rhosis. The original Outer Limits is a TV series of some historical significance. Please restore the articles you have eliminated through redirecting. These articles represent a large amount of work by many editors going back over 10 years. Slowmover (talk) 07:56, 25 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
Reverted all redirect edits and restored articles to easy accessibility. Philip Cross (talk) 17:53, 26 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
