Deletion

Most of these phrases are barely ever used. Holy Crap is'nt seen much more, and I believe it's mentioned a lot on Crap. Bluebry 22:45, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

I could give this page a chance. It would need to be fixed up quite a bit though. — It's dot com 23:12, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
I dunno, I'm afraid this page will be the subject of much snowballing and revert wars. Just what is a "Catchphrase" is really a matter of opinion. Thunderbird 00:35, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
I agree with Dot com. The way the appearances are listed needs to be fixed up, but it does seem like a good page. — talk Bubsty edits 00:46, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

I'll get right to work!!!!!! Lopp3

I'm inclined to go with Thunderbird. How many times does something need to constitute it being a catch phrase? And what seperates something from being a catch prase/slogan/motto, etc.? Catch phrases can be interpreted in many different ways. - Super Sam 09:55, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
Catch phrases are something that is said repeatatly until it became popular. The problem with most of the phrases here (exept "holy crap") is that they became popular without being repeated. This page is full with point of views and will casue much arguments over what, and what not should be included. I say delete. Elcool (talk)(contribs) 10:23, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

[Delete] None of the characters actually have consistent catch phrases throughout the series. These quotes appeared once, maybe twice. — Lapper (talk) 13:13, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

[Possibly keep] I agree with Dot com. This article might be worth keeping if it's cleaned up a bit. some of the things on here just aren't catch phrases. But I don't think it's true at all to say that none of the characters have catch phrases. Heimstern Läufer 19:06, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
I'm workin on it as hard as I can, but I'm working on the big project of Strong Bad's Technology as well. Soooo...give me a little bit of time, as SB's technology has a lot of formatting to be done. Lopp3 (Who can't figure out how the **** to work his sig.)
[Keep] I think that this page needs a major cleanup than a delortion. But otherwise, I think that the information seen here is pretty useful and relevant. So yeah. teeeffoh! 00:10, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
[Possibly Keep] This page has potential. I wish I had the talent to make it better. Perhaps if it was deleted and restarted from scratch? — Bassbone (TALK Strong Mad Has a Posse CONT) 03:47, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm trying to get an image, but I can't get an SWF file saved on my computer. Still need time and help. · · T2|Things 23:06, 13 April 2006 (UTC)

Bubs

He said "Tht'll be five dollars" in pom pom - that's not "numerous occassions". Anyone know of others? Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 15:05, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Sample of Style and Store Thank You Messages. Hey, if this page is going to be kept, we should replace "numerous occassions" with ALL the "occassions". Otherwise, it seems like we're not trying. It's like we're saying "Yeah, he probably said 'Holy Crap' a couple of times but we can't be bothered to tell you when he said it. Now go away." – The Chort 15:11, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

appearances list

I was thinking of re-arranging the appearances list so that it looked something like this:

Appearances

Homestar Runner

  • Seriously - (list of all appearances)
  • Some other catch phrase - (list of all appearances)

Strong Bad

  • Holy Crap - (list of all appearances)
  • Some other catch phrase - (list of all appearances)
Naturally, the (list of all appearances)'s will be replaced with a list of all appearances, and the "some other catch phrase" will be replaced by a different catch phrase, if there are any.
Is this fine with everybody? — talk Bubsty edits 01:14, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Good with me, and it's my article. Time for a revamp. · · T2|Things
Well, it has been done. Needs A LOT of work and a picture, but I think it may survive now. · · T2|Things


I think we no longer need the to be deleted tab. It just need cleanup now. · · T2|Things
