Linking of episode titles

The way many episode titles are currently linked misleadingly implies that the link target is an article about that episode, rather than the title being an allegorical reference. The links could be moved to a separate column. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-08-11 23:22Z

Well, I do have sypnoses for every episode in the first season stamped out, but I refrained from adding episode articles. However, if it's felt appropriate to include them, I'll reroute the links to articles on the episodes instead with the Biblical allegories linked in them. --Bacteria 02:31, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Personally, I don't care too much, but if you do create an article for each episode be prepared to meet resistance :) Alternatives to per-episode articles are a new column "Biblical allegory" or just mention it at the end of each synposis, like this: "(Biblical allegory: An eye for an eye)". —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-08-13 09:28Z

Two years later...

Since this article appears to be fairly dormant, I've removed the unneccesary links in the episode titles. It's generally poor practice to link in this manner, as it leads to a false impression that the reader is going to an article about the episode. -- TRTX ^{T / C} 15:39, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
