	:::::Actually, my point stands. With the exception of [[Strong Bad Email Statistics\|the page mentioned above]], most updates are as simple as adding the new toon's name to the "Appearances" list. A small sentence or two can be added to a main paragraph if needed, but when it ''is'' needed, no one forgets. If the item/character/place played a significant role in the new toon (examples include the [[Horrible Painting]] and [[The S is for Sucks]]), no one forgets to update it. All people need to remember is to update the smaller, less important lists. Especially places. Everyone [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Marzipan%27s_House&diff=447922&oldid=445215 forgets to add to when Marzipan's house makes another appearance]. That needs fixing somehow...

	:::::I seem to have gone off on a tangent. But it's okay, because it's an important (if separate) issue. Irredisregardless, the point remains that, if we fix that problem, this template would be useless. Even given that problem, it'd be no better to add <code><nowiki>*Email [[fake email name]]</nowiki></code> than <code><nowiki>{{update}}</nowiki></code>. That's my point. The vast majority of updates are either done right away (new, important info: [[Horrible Painting]]'s reappearance), or are so simple the template would be a waste of time (appearances lists: [[Marzipan's House]]). Hence, why the template is unneeded: our articles are not particularly time-sensitive, and if they go for a few whiles without the update, it doesn't significantly change the information. And if someone does notice something missing, it's more likely they'll just add the info themselves instead of a template. --[[User:DorianGray\|DorianGray]] 04:03, 4 February 2008 (UTC)		:::::I seem to have gone off on a tangent.
