Merge into Repent's Page[edit]
I believe that this page should become one with Repent's page.
This map is just a CTF version of Repentagram, but oddly it's been separated into it's own page while other maps with mode variations like Paradox Park and Xen Dance are together with each other.
Other than the x2 / Repentaflag in the name, I don't think it's any more special than any other map variation, which is why I think these two map pages should be combined. — Unsigned comment by MTD
- The primary reason the two articles are separate as of now is because the formal map names are different no matter how you mix and match the internal and external titles. Regardless, I think there's more merit to the argument for splitting the Xen Dance and Paradox Park articles into separate articles for each game mode version rather than merge Repent and Repentagram. Unlike the simple ports of the Half-Life deathmatch maps to Opposing Force or the slightly trimmed versions of HL1's deathmatch maps on the PS2 port, Repentagram x2, the CTF version of Xen Dance, and the Command Point version of Paradox Park pose completely distinct gameplay experiences compared to their original deathmatch incarnations.
- A similar discussion that was had a while ago which hasn't been put into action yet is related to the map Lockdown. Its article currently holds the information for both the original HL2DM incarnation and the Survivor version. As is evident in just how extraneous the Survivor information is appended to the article, it would be better if the two topics were split (albeit in this case relegating the Survivor version as a sub-page of the main Lockdown article). Going back to Opposing Force, the CTF and CP variations of the base deathmatch maps don't have a lot of unique information to cover on their own, but it would be cleaner and more consistent to split up their articles nonetheless, likely something along the lines of Xen Dance (CTF) and Paradox Park - The Command Point Issue.
