Forum:Episode title change

Hi everyone. I have a question which I would like to pose to all of you.

Back in the early 60's, each episode was given it's own title, instead of just being called 'Part One' or 'Part Two' of an overall title. Now, this has been repeated during the last few years, with episodes like Aliens of London / World War Three and Bad Wolf / The Parting of the Ways.

I think we should merge the pages for both episodes together, into an overall title, as has been done with the Hartnell stories. However, there are reasons both for and against this move.

REASONS FOR:
 * matches up with the Hartnell stories
 * more politically correct
 * they are produced as one story, not as two

REASONS AGAINST:
 * the BBC lists them as separate (on DVDs etc.)
 * the Tardis Index File lists them as separate
 * some people might be confused

I was thinking maybe something like choosing an overall title, and merging both pages into that, and then noting that this encompasses both episodes.

For example, Aliens of London would be for both Aliens of London and World War Three, and would make note of that on the page. And therefore World War Three would redirect to Aliens of London.
