There are many Story Arcs in Epithet Erased. These names were "Museum Arc" (for EP 1-4) and "Western Arc" (for EP 5-7) And as such those are the names this wiki uses to differentiate the two halves of Season 1.
Future Plans
Although with the Season 1 adaptions (EP 1-4 Novelization & EP 5-7 Novelization) of these arcs there will be two pieces of media sharing a story. So once official names for the adaptions are released that will be the Arc Titles. It should also be noted that Season 2 will use the Prison of Plastic story as well, once Season 2 is confirmed to be happening an Arc page will be made.
Why we need Story Arcs
Story Arcs allow for easily referring to a specific story instead of saying something like, Epithet Erased Ep 1-4/EP 1-4 Novelization. Instead we can just say "Museum Arc". And once the name for the Novelization is announced a page will be created with the correct Arc name.
When & How to use Arc Names
You should use the Arc name whenever you are referring to a specific story, and that it is true in both versions of the Arc.
Currently you should when referring to the following two arcs do it like so,
