Is she, for example, like Scaroth: one person spread across time, but with her minds linked? Or are all the Claras duplicates of some original Clara that have been seeded throughout history so that they may encounter the Doctor?

The point is, we don't know. And until we know, I feel like we should keep them as separate articles.

I agree. We have a show where, in addition to your situation, Jenna could be playing identical ancestors and descendants or temporally displaced triplets or gangers or tesselectas or what have you. Aside from personality traits, each of the Claras appear to be individuals with no knowledge of the other versions of her. They're individuals. This is even different from The Doctor, where we have separate pages for each of his individual incarnations, but at least they all know they are the same person and retain memories of past selves.
