Delete

This should all be covered in Trogdor, as maybe one or two sentences. Loafing 21:59, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Why would you delete this page? It's a word running gag, right. It should stay. User talk:Sam the Man Sam the Man
It should absolutely be merged with Trogdor, I think. The only reason that could prevent this is if TBC used it in reference to other characters. I searched, and I couldn't find anything, although for some reason we use this to refer to Stinkoman in our Stinkoman 20X6 walkthroughs for level 2 and level 4. Trey56 22:06, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
It's an activity running gag. I put it up for deletion because I thought it should really be covered on Trogdor's page. But now I think the article deserves a chance. It needs a major re-write and a different definition of burnination, though. Loafing 22:08, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

What's In A Word?

If the article doesn't get deleted: OK, currently, this article claims that burnination is the equivalent of breathing fire. I always thought it's burning something. Like countrysides and peasants. This needs to be fixed. Loafing 21:59, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Burninate  :

v. To incinerate something at random without warning, usually by Trogdor. Commonly affiliated with pesants and the country side in general. The_3000th_Flare 20:20, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

I think the article should not be merged with Trogdor. Also I think the article is already fine now. It has all the cleaning it needs.
I would say Trogdor and Burninating should not be merged Sam the Man (Talk | contribs) 15:49, 28 March 2007 (left unsigned)
I, personally, don't care if it's merged or not, but either way the article still needs a lot of cleanup. Is there more that can be said about the topic? And are the appearances just for the word "burninating"? Seems like it should be used more, and how's that different from searching the wiki for that word? So I think more should be added/fixed. --Stux 22:55, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Here's my thought. If "burninating" occurs in the H*R body of work solely in reference to Trogdor, then it belongs solely in that article, and does not deserve its own. However, with sufficient sightings of "burnination" outside Trogdor-related works, it could be viewed as a generic running gag and have an article. As that is seemingly not the case, I choose you, deleted. Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 03:48, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
