Revision as of 23:23, 4 September 2009

It has been suggested that the content of the page this talk page accompanies should not be a separate article on the wiki.

  • Please discuss below whether the content of the page should have its own article. Remember to consider ways the content could be brought up to the wiki's standards before making this determination.

If it is decided that the content should not have its own article, then the following additional issues need to be addressed:

  • Whether to merge the content with another page or remove it entirely.
  • Whether to redirect the leftover page or delete it outright.
 


Nails?

They're just nails. Nothing special. Besides, how would we mention them in inside references? A nail appears in this toon? free 20:31, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

This is the sort of article which would have been deleted quickly in accordance with HRWiki:Spoons in the past. However, a discussion is currently (or rather, used to be) taking place on its talk page over whether this project page actually describes a useful guideline. Instead, we should use the inclusion guidelines, which says that very generic items (such as nails) need "at least five to ten appearances and must be of at least moderate importance to the toon (i.e. not just in the background and never mentioned) in half of its appearances." Apart from "munch" and maybe Strong Mad's record, nails are used in pretty ordinary ways on the website. I'm not precisely sure what our currently policy is, but the way I see it, articles on this wiki need to be either interesting or useful to the project, and I'm not sure if documenting every appearance of boring old nails is either of those. Delete. – The Chort 12:58, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
I don't think constantly talking throughout a toon about galvanized nails or nailing a single piece of macaroni to a paper towel tube could be considered ordinary at all. Heimstern Läufer 13:13, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
I'm with Heimstern Läufer. Talking through an entire toon about galvanized nails, or anything like that isn't plain or ordinary at all. I'd say it's worth keeping here. Not only that, but there could be alot more future sightings referring to nails. Keep. That'sBupkis! 13:27, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
All of the uses are fairly interesting in that regard. — Defender1031*Talk 17:11, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
