[edit] Unique?

I have to say that Fantasy Football is neither unique to HR or notable enough to warrant a page. -128.103.10.200 21:45, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

But, it has two references and the minimum for a page like this is two. So No delete.-Record307 ^Talk/_Contribs 21:50, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Well, I'll just check the inclusion guidelines here like any good editor always should... Ok, got it. For an article relating to a possible running gag (such as this one) to be included, the running gag in question "needs at least three to four appearances in Homestar Runner toons or emails and must be significant in some way to the Homestar Runner world in contrast to the real world." So far, this running gag has only two appearances which are totally unrelated to each other. I say delete. – The Chort 21:51, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Delete. (I'd add my comments, but The Chort pretty much said it all) —Guard Duck ^talk 21:57, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Concur, DELETE. If anything a redirect to Sports#Football. wbwolf (t | ed) 22:31, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

I think it's unique enough to warrant its own page, since it's Fantasy Football, not Football. We kept C'mon! It's FOG!, so why not this? — MichaelXX2 22:39, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

C'mon! It's FOG! (or even Air Cardgage for that matter) were kept they both played a notable role in at least one toon and they are unique to the Homestar Runner Universe. However, fantasy football was mentioned in passing twice and is not unique to the H*R. We don't have a page on basketball, right? (Nor do we need one, that's what Sports covers). wbwolf (t | ed) 22:44, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

It hasn't been mentioned in unusual contexts and it's not unique to the H*R universe. Delete Loafing 00:08, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Why aren't we considering redirecting it to Sports#Fantasy Football? — Defender1031*Talk 00:30, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Because wbwolf made that subsection since this discussion started. That's what'll happen if this page isn't kept. -128.103.10.200 00:49, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

If this information is already on Sports, then this article is obsolete. Redirect it to Sports#Fantasy Football. – The Chort 18:46, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Fantasy football is a well-known game, and the two appearances of it are in no way a reference to the other. This page should be redirected to the Sports article. Homestar-Winner (talk) 19:04, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

You know, I'm surprised nobody pointed this out already... but it's not Fantasy Football mentioned in from work... it's Fantasy Foosball. Different game. (And a fantasy version of it... uh, probably doesn't exist.) So that kinda drops this down to *one* appearance. Delete or Redirect. -YK 20:39, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Oh. Delete it. — MichaelXX2 20:46, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
