Forum:Interludes

So maybe it is hiatus madness, or just me being bored and finding something tiny to talk about, but, we have never really had a consistent way of handling the interludes (the pages between the official end of an act and the start of the next) when it comes to the act pages. I wasn't around during the earlier days but the interludes then matched up to the map page e.g. The HS 2148 (one page interlude) between Acts 1 and 2 was included on the Act 2 page (prologue), the HS 2659 (one page interlude) between Acts 2 and 3 was included on the Act 3 page (prologue), and the HS 3842 (near 50 page interlude) between Acts 4 and 5 was included on the Act 4 page (epilogue).

With the lack of map updates until recently we have been shoving them in what we determine to be the best fit, of course now the map is updated and contradicts us, so we need to decide what to do. I say "when in doubt, follow MSPA", which while it seems obvious, going ahead and doing it without discussion could cause confusion and reverts by others. Also never mind the fact that moving the interludes around mean we also have to update the start and the end of acts on numerous pages, as well as update the start/end dates, as well as the number of pages for each act, which leaves plenty of room for errors, especially if people don't know what you are doing.

So yeah, that is basically it, the interludes that might need to be moved are: - The Light6 (talk) 02:58, April 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * The HS 6185 (10 page interlude) between A6A1 and A6I1, it is currently included as a prologue to A6I1 though the map places it as an epilogue to A6A1 (point of note: the interlude doesn't include the intermission instruction in the forwarding command).
 * Now this one is confusing, the HS 6291 (near 30 page interlude) between A6I1 and A6A2, we currently include it as part of A6A2 however the map puts the HS 6319 (last page of the interlude) as the start of the act, meaning the interlude is actually split up between A6I1 and A6A2, which doesn't make much sense, also the interlude doesn't include the intermission tag in the forwarding command (point of note: given the way the EoA6I1 Flash is portrayed, that page could be argued to simultaneously be part of A6I1 and A6A2, confusing the matter further).
 * A simple one again, the HS 6717 (3 page interlude) between A6I2 and A6A3, we have it as part of A6A3, the map places it in the intermission, confused by the lack of the intermission tag in the forwarding command.
 * A HS 7340 (single page interlude) between A6A4 and A6I4, we include it as part of the intermission, the map includes it as part of the act.
 * And that is all, except for the pages we are currently saying are part of A6A6, when Hussie does update the map again he could very well contradict us here but for the moment it is inconclusive.
