Forum:Volume number of side stories

As you know, currently, kokoro connect's original light novel have 11 books published with 8 of them named like xxx random and other 3 named as xxx time which consist of side stories. That three volumes are given as Volume 5, 8, 11 in this wiki now, and the original Japanese publication of these novels does not provide volume number to them.

However, from my knowledge, its oversea licensed release, including both Traditional Chinese edition and Simplified Chinese edition, they both write volume number on book's cover and they count volumes differently, by assigning kokoro connect clip time as the volume 4.5 (SC/TC edition link). As it seems to be impossible for two rivaling publishing company that they seems to be even translate the series name and name of each volume as different as possible to communicate with each other to use same way to count volume number, I could only think of the possibility that they are instructed by original Japanese license holder to do so, which mean that this way of novel ordering is probably appointed. So, do you fuys think that the way of novel ordering in this wiki should be changed accordingly with this information?c933103 (talk) 20:09, December 1, 2013 (UTC)

I personally think it doesn't matter what the oversea versions do. The official Japanese versions doesn't have any volume numbers  so they really shouldn't be there in the first place. Plus it will be awkward to end the series with a volume 8.5. Skullheart (talk) 11:33, December 2, 2013 (UTC)
