How should a inconsistency in similar sequences be handled?

[Žiga Pirc]

Hello, 

there is a sequence https://oeis.org/A218381. Since last month there are now also https://oeis.org/A395626 and union of the two https://oeis.org/A394904. When I created the last one I didn't realize that I had included 0, while there isn't a 0 in https://oeis.org/A218381. I think it makes more sense to include 0 (0+0 is a perfect square after all), but I figured it would be good to ask here. Should be A218381 changed to include 0 or should 0 be removed from the other two?

We long ago gave up on the idea of complete consistency.  It is provably impossible to achieve.

So our policy is to correct actual errors, but otherwise we are tolerant of individual differences in style.  Don't start making changes without permission.

Best regards
