*However, if we put them in the SAME era, we'd have a terrible job have to clarify everything in every article - there are so many things that have no place in GTA V | *However, if we put them in the SAME era, we'd have a terrible job have to clarify everything in every article - there are so many things that have no place in GTA V | ||
I understand and appreciate the concern of all involved, but I have to make a decision here and say that GTA V is a new era. The point is to make the wiki logical and accessible. Saying that GTA V was part of the IV era (even though it's very different) makes no sense. If you want to pair up the IV and V eras, that's very easy to do - you just say "In the GTA IV and V Eras". Separating them if they were in the same Era would be a much bigger problem.

:When I first saw this article (before this discussion started), I had the same reaction. However, I thought about it, and decided that this article is a good chance to explain the justification for considering GTA V as part a new GTA V Era, and also mention that it not definite just yet. Therefore, I think that the redirect should be reverted. I agree that until we know for certain, that the historical significance of numbered GTA games is justification for assuming that the same will be true for GTA V. | |||
:As for the rest of the wiki, I don't think we should be using GTA V Era everywhere. When GTA IV was released, we had articles like [[Liberty City in GTA IV]] and [[Wanted Level in GTA IV]], and didn't append "Era" to those titles until the release (or at least announcement) of subsequent games. That actually makes things simpler (less to type), and makes more sense for now.
