Don't write a page for special guests ''unless'' the guest becomes more regular on the show (e.g. [[Macaulay Culkin]]) or the guest does not have a relevant Wikipedia page (e.g. [[Len Kabasinksi]]).
Don't write a page for special guests ''unless'' the guest becomes more regular on the show (e.g. [[Macaulay Culkin]]) or the guest does not have a relevant Wikipedia page (e.g. [[Len Kabasinksi]]).
Multi-part episodes do not need a separate page ''unless'' the videos are separate episodes in the chronology.
* [[Jack and Jill]] is two videos, but both make up Episode 21 of [[Half in the Bag]]. Therefore, both descriptions and thumbnails are referenced in the same page.
* [[The Friday the 13th Series (Part 1)]] and [[The Friday the 13th Series (Part 2)]] are separated by [[Pee-Wee's Big Adventure]], so those make up episodes 114, 116, and 115 of [[re:View|re:View]] respectively.
Do not make a page for an excerpt of an episode. Instead, make it a heading under the original video.
* Example: [[Oppenheimer and The Hollywood Implosion#Christopher Nolan’s 12 Angry Men]]

If something is notable in the episode or you thought "Hey, I noticed that", it's a remark. You can add a separate "Trivia" section for things that seem inconsequential but noteworthy. This is roughly equivalent to the "Remarks" sections on HRWiki.

If discussions in this episode come up again on future episodes, mark them here. It may be overkill to provide this every single time a Previously On is used. Consider whether a call forward is really necessary to point out before adding this heading.
