I'm pretty sure we had a discussion about this already in the community, but I think it's been a while (November I believe) so I don't know if that was before and after this news got out.

My POV is that they're siblings, even if they're only half-siblings. It's never been about how they were raised with different fathers (because neither one of the fathers was around) and it's not about how they are different BECAUSE they have a father. No, the show focusses about the things they have in common and the bond they have because they're siblings. I don't think there is a need, for us as the wiki, to go ahead and make that part more important then it is. If they have a different father, then the only thing I think should be done about this on the wikia, is maybe add it too the trivia in their page Bellamy and Octavia. I don't even think it's ought to be mentioned in their pages. I wouldn't want to see 'They're only half-siblings' on Octavia's page. Acceptable to me are 'They're siblings' or 'Bellamy is Octavia's older brother, he is roughly 6 years older then she is' and continue down the line of them being siblings.

Idk why this is so important to me. Perhaps because i'm an only child, but I feel like I have close friends who are just like sisters. To me, siblings can go beyond blood and so if the show represents no stress or highlight of the fact that they're not 100% related by blood then idk why we would, you see?
