Best of Both Worlds - Is this legitimate? Regardless, it doesn't make any sense.

Keep. It's a Star Trek: Next Generation episode. There is precedent for the eps having their own page. See
Encounter at Farpoint. Admittedly, it needs work, though.

Keep. I'll add some to it when I have time... in an attempt to make it a better article. Perhaps best put on cleanup, instead of here.

I would suggest moving episodes of any given TV show to an article that reflects the show in the title of the article... ex "Star Trek TNG: Best of Both Worlds" A lot of TV show episodes are rather common phrases that could merit their own articles, it's important to keep fact separate from fiction.

Delete: insignficant. Random episodes of TV shows get their own pages? So what if it's been done before; no need to repeat the mistake.

Keep. Probably the most significant and popular ST:TNG episode.
Mrwojo 21:00, 21 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Keep. It was voted the most popular TNG episode.

Keep, it's a particularly notable episode, but I agree with Alexwcovington that the title is bad. A common enough phrase that doesn't mention Star Trek at all will not do. Move content and turn into redirect?

I think this page should be kept, but I agree that naming should be consistent for all articles on television series episodes. This is an actual saying and the naming of this article could lead to confusion. --

Even though the capitalisation on the saying is different, I would still advocate moving the article. What happens when the title of a Star Trek episode is the same as another article on wikipedia? I kinda feel that wherever one would move that article to should be where the standard is set before all these articles get written. Naming conventions exist to stop confusion from happening in the first place --
Graham :) 20:33, 22 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Move to a more relevant name, as Alexwcovington suggested. --

I think the way it is currently (@ 'Best of Both Worlds' with a clear note at the top linking to the phrase) is just fine. --

Huh. And now I see that already has its own page. I'll be merging them now. - Montrealais
