Talk:List of The Beverly Hillbillies episodes

Splitting the article

StewieBaby05 has tried splitting this article into individual seasons but hasn't provided any rationale for doing so. The splits have been reverted until he can gain consensus to do so. There really is little point in splitting the article at this point. The season articles aren't being created with anything more than the content from here, nor has there been proper attribution here or at the articles that he's created. Those articles all require tagging with {{CWW}}. Length alone is not justification for a split. The guideline we use for splitting an article, Wikipedia:Article size refers to readable prose size, not file size. Strictly speaking, according to the definition of readable prose, List of The Beverly Hillbillies episodes only contains 285 bytes of readable prose. Using a very loose definition of readable prose, there is less than 28KB of readable prose in the article. This is well within WP:SIZERULE's recommendation that length alone does not justify splitting when the length of an article is <40KB. Splitting the article with so little content forces readers to look in multiple places for minimal content, which doesn't hep readers at all. --AussieLegend (✉) 11:13, 26 October 2013 (UTC)
