Has The Wiki Helped?

"Has the wiki helped you in any way?"

In the commentary for "animal", Mike says "[Strong Bad] says 'segmented eyes', but he actually has compound eyes. Read that on the wiki."

Yes, that's true. Surely that's not the only case, though. In fact, the wiki would be a wonderful resource for them if they needed to look something up for continuity or consistency, similar to the way J.K. Rowling admitted visiting fan sites when she couldn't remember the exact details of one of her previous books and needed to look it up real quick. — It's dot com

Assuming the response Matt gave on mibluvr13's user page is authentic, it appears that TBC do in fact use our Wiki often, in much the same way Rowling uses fan sites. Heimstern Läufer 06:56, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

Why were A Jumping Jack Contest and Marshmallow's Last Stand removed from the site?

In a interview Matt says "Those will be back on someday. We can’t disclose why they're off, it’s a personal reason. If all goes well, they’ll be back on the site; we’d like to have everything we’ve ever done on the site, and it sucks we had to take them of. They’ll be back on someday." (trogga)

Well, that's more of an explanation, not an answer to the question. Whatever the true reason is, it's gotta be something out of their control. — It's dot com

Perhaps the guy who helped them make them in the first place, (I think there was somebody different in the credits) didn't want them displayed anymore? I dunno, 'tis a curiosity. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 23:49, 5 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Upgrade Sub-page?

I'm surprised this little sub-page has grown so quickly. Should we make this into some kind of HRWiki official type page, open it up to whatever questions, and build a big database of unknowns we'd like answers to, in case any of us get the chance to ask TBC any of them? I mean, some of them even THEY probably don't know the answer to, such as the 'Feed The Childrens' one, but some of them aren't too bad. In any case, I'm gonna reformat it in a few days, and depending on how big it gets, into different catagories. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 23:34, 5 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Decline: Truly, I think its a worthwile and useful page, but it just isn't content fit for an article. — Lapper (talk) 14:38, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Haha, don't worry, this isn't STUFF. I just felt like throwing it out there during the inital rush of questions. They're coming pretty slow now, I think this sub-page will work just fine. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 00:17, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

I don't see why it couldn't be a page in the HRWiki namespace. You'd have to do away with the notable/other label, since that's pretty subjective. — It's dot com 00:28, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

You really think so? It's true, you would need some reformating, but you gotta admit, some of them are a bit... stupid. We'd probably need some kinda rating system of sorts. Nothing as complex as STUFF of course, but something organized. Any ideas? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 07:02, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

Why not use the HRWiki:Featured Article Selection format? --Sam Goldfish 22:41, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Hmmm... Okay, I'm gonna get on this. First we need to decide on a page though. HRWiki:Questions perhaps? ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 22:48, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Da Vinci's Notebook

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but hasn't the question of how TBC met Da Vinci's Notebook been answered in the DVD commentary to Ballad Of The Sneak? 86.141.237.65 00:19, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Quite correct, I'm updating to denote. Thanks. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 00:19, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Screenshot

This page needs an applicable screenshot. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 22:55, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Rating System

Since this is no longer under my subpage control, this page also needs a less biased rating system. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 22:55, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Category

This page also needs a category of some kind. --DorianGray

Why not make a category for WikiProjects? —BazookaJoe 23:37, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Question

Who did H*R get raised by? In other words, who were/are H*R's parents?SPONGE 001 01:18, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

See Don Chapman and Harriet Chapman. They're the closest thing to parents you'll ever see on the site. Also see the five things never to email Strong Bad about. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 01:20, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks.SPONGE 001 01:32, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
