:::The arbiter of what is reported is '''consensus'''. Your opinion has been noted.

Once you have the magic 3, then it's "is it something no one would look for?" "is it something notable on another page?" and the like. We have ample citations - at this point I suspect we should be debating its notability. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 09:08, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

blood

I think that a better title for this page would be "blood", because right now it says how some characters bleed in homestarrunner.com, but then some instances are listed which aren't characters bleeding, but just plain blood. - link_icon.gifThe Joe(Talk) 20:03, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, no one's responded, so I guess I'll try being bold for once by moving it and fixing all the links.

Why?

Homestar Runner contains depictions of blood every once in a blue moon, who cares? This article defines pointless. Delete? Darth Katana X (discussionitem_icon.gif user.gif mail_icon.gif) 07:01, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Since it happens so rarely, that's what makes it so interesting. --DorianGray
But what's the point, really? To have more featured article candidates when the Wiki is scraping the bottom of the barrel? Certainly not every pattern in Homestar Runner needs to be reported. There are worthwile ones and worthless ones, and this one fits in the latter. Darth Katana X (discussionitem_icon.gif user.gif mail_icon.gif) 07:08, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
