Ding! Homestar Runner (body of work) is a featured article, which means it showcases an important part of the Homestar Runner body of work and/or highlights the fine work of this wiki. We also might just think it's cool. If you see a way this page can be updated or improved without compromising previous work, feel free to contribute.

Wikipedia

It doesn't make a lot of sense to make this anything other than a redirect page to the Wikipedia entry. All the pages within the Homestar Runner Wiki universe sort of "assume" you have been briefed on the basics of what Homestar Runner is, and it seems that if you haven't been, then the Wikipedia entry is exactly the aerial view you are looking for...

I do not think so. If we are the second site google have to offer when searching for Homestar Runner, poeple who are new to this world would like to know more. Think of this. A guy likes wikis and is a member in one, but doesnt know what Homestar is. He gets a link to some SBEmail via mail and enjoys it. forget about is for a few days and than want to see it again. He searches Google for it and found us just under the main site. "Wow! A wiki about this great site! Maybe I sould start reading it so I can fund out all those Easter Eggs" And so on. E.L.

I don't disagree that this wiki is the most useful resource. That's why I've been focusing on broadening the cooperation and trust between Wikipedia and The Homestar Runner Wiki, and if you want to see some of the general strategy ideas, see this discussion attached to a template which I created as an experiment to prominently point readers towards the HRWiki as a trusted Interwiki Sister Projects. What I'd like to see is a natural forwarding to occur from the Wikipedia into the Homestar Runner Wiki, and if this is done properly there won't be a concern. The first step is for the two projects to trust and build on each other. Plain ol' duplication helps no one... (acct creation seems to be broken, so I'm just my IP address, sorry)


How popular is Homestar runner?

well?

Evidently, popular enough to be known in Macedonia! As a school teacher, I have an annoying habit of turning my students' questions back to them; perhaps you could undertake a project to find out just how popular H*R is? —AbdiViklas 06:05, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

How did you know i was Macedonian?

By checking out your user page! —AbdiViklas 04:20, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

For the best way to see how popular is a site, the most reliable source on the internet is Alexa who provide statistics on websites such as traffic, page views and more. This graph, starting from the end of 2001 show the popularity rank for www.homestarrunner.com. As you can see, Homestar reached his peek on the middle of 2003 (About the time Pulse Interview took place, showing the site to alot of people for the first time). Then it declined and peeked again on February 6 (I recall this was the exact time, because Peasant's Quest Movie Trailer was released and the site crashed). Now the popularity of the site is on a slow decline, but who knows how and when it will peek again? Elcool (talk)(contribs) 14:43, 19 November 2005 (UTC)

Since when is TGS Bland and Monotonous?

"Another popular feature on the website is Strong Bad's crudely drawn comic series Teen Girl Squad. The comic parodies four archetypical high-school clichés; in their quest to become unique and popular, they are bland and monotonous. This is evident in the girls' nondescript names: Cheerleader, So and So, What's Her Face, and The Ugly One. "
