Naming: Chapter:
 * It seems are current convention is to put "(Novel)" behind every novel-related page regardless of whether there is a competing TV series page (e.g. Glass, Luke, Day 21, the Colony, etc. don't have non-"(Novel)" pages). Following that convention: "Characters (Novel)", "Locations (Novel)", and "Timeline (Novel)".
 * I'm honestly not a huge fan of that. I would prefer "Novel Characters", "Novel Locations", and "Novel Timeline". However, I understand if the majority wants to have all pages consistently named with "(Novel)" ending.
 * While I prefer the term "book series" to "novel series", either works. I'm okay with "The 100 (Novel Series)" or "The 100 Novel Series" (or replace novel with book). As a side note, on the novel pages, it claims the series name to be "The Hundred" – for consistency, we should decide on the preferred series name & use it everywhere.
 * Yes, the idea is to have a "Chapters" or "Chapters Summary" subpage for each book, with main link from #Plot section.
 * I've never been fully on-board with episodes having both Summary and Plot sections. Especially when the Summary isn't actually a summary, it's the press release. My opinion is, if we want to include the official press release (or jacket description), the section should be named as such. A summary should summarize the entire episode (or novel), not be the company's teaser. That said, I do see the value of short summaries (e.g. the summaries wikipedia puts in their episode guide), so readers can quickly get episode overviews without reading the detailed plot sections.
 * However a chapter doesn't equal an episode scene – each chapter includes multiple scenes and will potentially need multiple paragraphs. For an effective chapter guide, we would have to have a header for each chapter (so people can use the TOC to skip to specific chapter), with 1-4 paragraphs each. So for first book, 36 headers with 36-144 paragraphs total. That would be an extremely lengthy plot section (even when hidden in scroller) and overwhelm the TOC. I think it should go onto separate page.

You summarized my main purpose in this discussion pretty well: "help the book fans contribute without jumping through technical\policy hops". I don't believe pages will immediately be filled, but there should be a place for this information. When a book fan comes by, they're not going to go to the discussion boards to justify creating new pages. If there isn't a place to add info, a new user is more likely to leave.
