How do we deal with Single Work pages that become Series?

Like these pages, which are named for the first work, and talk primarily about it, along with having no formal series name and act like series pages by talking about their sequels.

The Enchantment Emporium and Tantabus Mark II

Do we spawn off more pages for each new volume / part, or are we fine with this and just be like other pages, where, The Wild Ways would just redirect to The Enchantment Emporium?

Should we folderize tropes by the volume as well, like a series page would? The Palaververse for example.

Depends on how long the trope list for individual books/installments are, IMO. If a new one came out and you have three tropes to add, and the whole series page has only 60, then I prefer them all to remain on the one series page instead of hard split into (near) stubs.

Some pages folderize individual works, some don't, and I'm fine with either. The former is usually done with works that are more standalone. Which way tropes are sorted will affect how the page gets split if the too-long warning pops up, e.g. (and note the numerous alt titles at the bottom).

Neither of those pages is long enough to worry about yet.

If you've got a truly Long Runner series, of "The Continuing Adventures" variety - I'm thinking Amelia Peabody, Mary Russell, or Lord Peter Wimsey here - you could also use the Recap/ subpage structure if the main page is getting too long.
