Episode descriptors are part of the title; separate them with a colon and space; e.g. "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock". For multiple descriptors, use a colon and space for each break. | | | | Corey |

Consistency is the goal and. as far as the colon or hyphen issue, the generally accepted practice has been the use of the colon. |

But why is that an episode? For that matter why are the Star Trek films episodes? Because they are considered installments in a serialized story, each with its own title. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.

How many episodes of "Evangelion: 1.11" and "Evangelion: 2.22" do we have? It's episodes of Evangelion actually with different versions of each. There are 3 mail episodes/films so far: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo and 4.0 is set for 2015 last I heard. Each of the first three also have update / Driector cuts (the x.YY versions). The series of files is actually called "Rebuild of Evangelion" since it's a rebuild/re-imaging of the original TV series. | | | | Last edited: by tkinnen |

Evangelion: 2.22: You can (not) advance
Evangelion: 1.11 - You are (not) alone You forgot to mention the clearly visible punctuation mark at the end of the titles. You're trying to trick the users, aren't you? Correct are: Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone. Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance. Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo. | | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played. [Ken Cole, DVD Profiler Architect] |
