A multi-episode file is a file with at least 2 episodes. Those are troublesome as AniDB can only associate 1 Episode to 1 File atm. Add the episodes like described in the [[Content:Episodes|How to add new episodes]]-guideline, but with with the following episode titles. | |||

There are 2 cases we have to consider for this. In both people of course still have to add [[Files:Generic_files|generic files]] to their lists. That workaround can't be avoided. | |||
In both | |||
==Case 1 - The release is done completely in multi-episode files== | |||
If a group releases all episodes in multi-episode files (e.g. [http://anidb.info/a330 Future Boy Conan]), these files should be added to specials O (Other Episodes) | |||
*Episode[s] X-Y", where X and Y can, if necessary, be followed by a letter (a,b,c,...) to indicate partial/split episodes. | |||
This question can be answered pretty fast by checking their Japanese homepages. | {{h4|Examples}} | ||
:<b>contains episode 1,2 and 3</b><tt> | |||
:* O1: Episodes 1-3</tt> | |||
:*<b>file 1 contains episode 1 and parts of episode 2. file 2 contains the second part of episode 2</b><tt> | |||
:* O1: Episodes 1-2a | |||
:* O2: Episode 2b</tt> | |||
==Case 2 - Only a few files are done in multi-episode files== | |||
* If a group releases just ''some'' files that contain multiple episodes (e.g. the multi-episodes in [http://anidb.info/a56 Prince of Tennis]). These files should be added to the first episode they contain and a [[Content:Filecomments|filecomment]] in this form should be added: | |||
:<tt>Joint episodes xx-yy</tt> | |||
==Additional note to reduce confusion== | |||
