Let's face it, except for season 1, where there were actually differences between the EF and Storybrooke counterparts, they are the same character. I have even heard David refer to Mary Margaret as Snow in Storybrooke (on rare occasion).

I think it would also help with some of the points of characters, where we debate whether to add one side or the other. For example, Lily was added as a LWM character, and only in the past couple of episodes have we confirmed that she does, indeed, have an EF counterpart, similar to how Emma is technically an EF character. with one page, as we find out additional information, we can update the appropriate section of the page (before the curse, during first curse, after first curse broken, etc.)

One thing that would be nice is if the picture on the character page actually showed BOTH the EF and Storybrooke depictions. Of course, some allowances would need to be made for the few cases where we not only have both sides of the character, but also multiple actors due to showing different ages (Snow, Cora, Emma, Lily, Baelfire). Regarding your "multiple images" point, I've seen quite a few Wikis using tabs in characters' infoboxes in order to show different appearances (sometimes not even age, even for things like different outfits). Just an idea.
