I have protected both articles due to a small edit war that had been going on previously, and to ensure no spoilers or links are added until a decision has been made.

:Perhaps I ''am'' overestimating the plot development. I will therefore leave this to people with experience in the game, as I obviously do not have a firm grasp of the situation. Considering what you said about not withholding information from our readers (with which I absolutely agree), the line you put in earlier that I removed sounds fine to me. Sorry for making a mess.

::[[User:Eganio|Eganio]] contacted me for my opinion on this dicussion. As I have already stated, I believe that the Michelle article should be redirected to Karen. There is a spoiler warning on the front page, which warns all users that there are likely to be spoilers on articles. I think there should be '''no''' reference to the Karen character. If you are going to separate the pages on the basis of the spoiler, why are you then re-adding the spoiler? Even the word secret is a spoiler and should, really, be removed, if this is to remain separate. Otherwise, just redirect to Karen. As a compromise, why not add a list of the missions she is in under a header. This would allow readers to actually read-up on the missions before getting there, whilst not having no idea about the spoiler. Thoughts?

:::I have to strongly disagree with your contention that we should simply redirect Michelle Stone to Karen. Because Michelle is a separate, distinct [[Girlfriends in GTA IV|girlfriend]] earlier in the story, there ''should'' be some information regarding her dating proclivities, as I see it. How is someone supposed to find out about her preferences as "Michelle" if there is no article for that persona? If there is the option of prematurely learning her secret identity, there should ''also'' be the option of ''not'' doing so. What does everyone think?
