Has anyone been to the Homestar Runner page on Wikipedia lately? (I usually don't because of the Wiki, but I was bored, and...) And the HR characters page (yes, singular page)? Strong Bad has his own Wikipedia page, but not Homestar. They all seem to "lack citations", "need cleanup", and, the last time I visited that page, was full of section stub markers. Anyone up to the task of fixing our favorite Internet cartoon's page on the Free Encyclopedia?

Might wanna fix your link to Wikipedia for SB, it should be this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strong_Bad) instead of this (http://en.wikipedia.org/Strong_Bad)

I was just thinking the same thing a few days ago. The thought of trying to clean up those pages is pretty overwhelming though. Compressing the entire Homestar Runner body of work into a just a one or two articles is such an enormous, ridiculous task. I mean, we've devoted two and a half thousand articles to it, and there's still work to be done. I really wish somebody would fix it up though, somebody other than me.

Somehow I still laugh when I see this page.

That's weird that :sb: has a Wikipedia page, but Homestar doesn't. Maybe has to do with this page.

I'm not sure what the point of that would be. WP can't hope to have the level of detail the wiki has, so why try?

Because without Wikipedia, there would be no Homestar Runner Wiki. I think we should pay our respects and give them one last drop of our love. Devote a project on the main wiki to it, and I'm sure at least some users will be interested.
