Hi WKPQ,

is it possible that most of the over 1,000 comments got lost when you moved the Update pages to subpages of Asphalt 8: Airborne? I just followed a link to a comment about 2 instead of 3 Finish Line Boxes, but the (new) Fast Lane Update page only has 52 comments.

There are other reasons why I (personally) am against subpages:
 * E-Mail notifications show text like: "People are talking about Asphalt 8: Airborne/..." with long (and cut) text that lacks the most important part.
 * Page titles become long and difficult to read. The most important part comes at the end.
 * Search results are very difficult to read.
 * Category indices become useless. For example, all Asphalt 8 updates are sorted under A.
 * Subpages in the main (article) namespace are against common Wikipedia practice (we do not have to cling to their rules, but on their site, subfolders in article namespace are disabled for the above-mentioned reasons).

I didn't object when you moved the update pages because I wanted to wait and watch how it turned out. But to me, the update subpages only have disadvantages and I strongly recommend moving them back to their own pages. I would even give all Championship and R&D articles their own pages instead of subfolders. To my mind, clear page name and categorization rules will work a lot better than subfolders.
