Blog:Formatting of page titles for media that went downhill/improved

Something that I have came across in pages that are about media that went downhill/improved on reception wikis is that they often title the pages "[media title] (season/year-season/year)" and "[media title](season/year-present)" respectively. However, there are some articles that are titled "[media title] (pre-season/year)" and "[media title](season/year-present)" respectively. Note that this does not apply to pages about a "middle" era (ex. The Simpsons (seasons 11-31)) as there is no confliction of them.

Basically, I thought that something should be done about this - maybe a formatting rule could be created.

As for my suggestion, I initially supported the pre and post titles (over the "[media title] (season/year-season/year)" and present titles), however I then changed my mind, and then decided that a mix - specifically, pre and present titles would be the better format. My reasons why are here:
 * 1) Pre titles are better because I find it unnecessary to put the season/year in the title that is the first one; specifically, I find it more simple to just title the SML page for example on BSEW "SML (pre-2017)" rather than "SML (2007-2016)."
 * 2) Present titles are better because I find it odd to use a post title, as a correct usage of a post title would use the year before it went downhill in its title rather than the year it went downhill, which may also confuse readers; in fact, some users even use the title wrong, as they use "post-[the year it went downhill]" rather than "post-[the year before it went downhill]." Post means after, not since, so this is wrong.

I would propose that some kind of rule be made about this; I was going to make a RFC, but I'm not sure if it would be relevant enough for one. Also note that I'm aware I'm not an admin, I'm just proposing this.
