Keep?

I'm not really against this page's existence, but I don't support it either. It doesn't seem to match the stuff we usually document on this wiki. I thought a discussion should be started before the page is improved or deleted. Should we have pages for animation sprites? If so, should any other characters be documented this way?

I think we should have more animation sprite and method pages. I also think we should include a section on this page for Homestar's eyes. Pac2005 (Talk | contribs) 20:31, 16 March 2019 (UTC) (left unsigned)
