Two identical pages

I don't see the point of this page, since there is Official Literature page. How about moving the necessary information to Official Literature and deleting this page?--Higan 17:36, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Their purposes do indeed seem to overlap entirely.Flan27 17:56, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Yeah. So what, dear admins? If it's okay, I'm going to implement this.--Higan 13:22, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Not quite. One details ZUN's authorship in writing, while the other deals only with print works. - Kiefmaster99 16:30, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
As I can see, it's only Inaba of the Moon and Inaba of the Earth where "ZUN is credited as "原案" (the base of setting and character design) instead of "原作" (scenario)" (anyway ZUN is featured as writer in the infobox). We can easily point it out in brackets near the title, for example. My idea is that it would be convenient to have all the official literature on one page, without that dubious division.--Higan 16:52, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
If other page deals only with print works, so it should be called Official Print Works. Literature means everything that is written with words. Music CD stories are also the part of official literature. Anyway I don’t see the point on having two separate pages, while you can explain the stuff using only one page. --Coyc 17:29, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
The "Print Works" on the main page currently directs to Official Literature. I don't care what it's called, but a distinction needs to be made between Print Works (books) and other categories (music albums and games). - Kiefmaster99 21:29, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
What does this distinction have to do with the two pages? Once again, books (Curiosities of Lotus Asia, Symposium of Post-mysticism, etc) are included in both pages. The only difference is that Fiction by ZUN contains Music CD stories, and Official Literature doesn't. As it is now, it appears as if CD stories aren't official literature, though they are. Of course you can distinguish non-manga print works, but I just don't see the point in that, if you can have everything in one page, in different sections. --Higan 22:33, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
And, I just suggest you this: there is a "Fiction" section in Official Literature. Why not move the necessary materials from Fiction by ZUN there?--Higan 22:33, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
The Music CD stories are in fact the sticking point for me. As they are part of the music albums, they don't belong in the Print Works designation, for the same reason I wouldn't include music comments from other works. Simple as that. - Kiefmaster99 20:29, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
I agree about music comments, but I think that music CD stories belong to Print Works as much as they belong to Music - why, they are literature, and they are printed on paper.--Higan 21:44, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
So what do you think? Aren't our arguments enough to make it clear, that this page is useless and must be merged with Official Literature? --Higan 18:45, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
"On paper" is a poor criteria to judge by for music albums (lyrics, etc). I still think that the music CD albums should by omitted, but at this point, I no longer see the purpose of this page. - Kiefmaster99 19:46, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
