Re: Experiment 000 (Cyber)

Re your message: I have been removing the references to the Stitch! anime on List of experiments from Lilo & Stitch because, in my opinion, Stitch! is really a different continuity than the original movies and television show. While they share the same characters, the continuity is quite different and intermingling of the list in both can be quite confusing. Instead, I recommend creating a new article that is similar to the existing list, but instead covers the Stitch! experiments. For example, take List of experiments from Stitch! and turn it into a full list instead of a redirect. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 03:24, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Re your message: Misplaced Pages works on the consensus of the editors of the article. I'm quite well aware that Stitch! is an official show. I never denied that. What I'm saying is that the continuities are different and should be handled differently, not forced together and cause confusion for the reader. It is like how we have different articles for Lilo & Stitch: The Series and Stitch!. You don't see the two merged together, do you? There are separate episode lists for each show.
The situation reminds me a lot of the Transformers. Do you see how the different continuities are handled regarding character lists? For example there are List of The Transformers characters, List of Transformers: Robots in Disguise characters, List of Transformers: Armada characters, etc. There isn't one massive list where all of the continuities are merged into one.
Going back to the original issue... the use of a separate list would mean that each experiment can be explained properly without having to explain away any continuity issues. Like how some experiments look, behave, have different history between the two series. Or how some experiments, like 000 appear in one series, but do not in another. Or more practically speaking, how do you explain to the reader all of the references to Lilo in List of experiments from Lilo & Stitch when she doesn't appear in Stitch!? You can't without a lot of explanation in a single article, but you can easily do so if there were separate articles. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 15:44, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
