Making a new page for the sequel: American Mc Gees Alice

This is a pretty strait-forward proposal I'm throwing out there. The sequel to American Mc Gee's Alice (Alice: Madness Returns) came out this passing Tuesday and it's probably worthwhile to either make an entirely new page or at least create different folders for the two games.

Right now a couple random tropes for the sequel are on the page, but for the most part it isn't very clear that they are tropes for the sequel unless they're labeled as such. Doing a split of some kind couldn't hurt.

Go ahead and make it

In my experience, there are two options for something like this:

1. Soft split the page into two foldered sections, one for the first game and one for the second game.

2. Hard split Madness Returns onto its own page, moving all relevant tropes with it.

Personally, I'd go with a soft split, unless one or both of the games are so Trope Overdosed that the page's character count gets too large.

I actually prefer hard splits for sequels because it's really hard to talk about them without spoliering the original game. It also makes for a cleaner delineation of what tropes are in what game without having to specify on every example.

This.

You can go ahead and split it. However, you should put it at Amercian Mc Gees Alice or whatever the sequels name is and custom title it. Just entering the name won't make the tags work. I'm going to correct the tag.

Okay, somebody fixed the tag before or right after me. Good job whoever.

You may also want to move the pages to VideoGames.American Mc Gees Alice and VideoGame.American Mc Gees Alice Madness Returns.

^ The second game is just called Alice Madness Returns. No American Mc Gee's in it.

I'm working on this now. I've split Madness Returns into its own page on the Video Games namespace - just need to do some formatting (and need help with ptitle formatting).

New page is on Alice Madness Returns - anyone want to flip over the original to the Video Games namespace?

Bump. Anyone doing anything here, or is it done?

The first game needed to be namespaced - I've done that and redirected the old page. The sequel page looks done. It's probably safe to lock this.
