Editing Talk:Children

==Please Help==
This is such a large topic I am surprised no one has created it yet. Please contribute. --{{User:Slipstream/sig}} 05:46, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

== Necessary? ==

I really doubt that this page is necessary. the user above claims that this topic is so big, so why didn't somebody create it? Children is not really a real topic, IMO. --{{User:Techgeekmbg/sig}} 06:01, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

With so many references, doesn't it qualify as a running gag yet? There are less notable articles on this wiki that are allowed to exist, I am not being biased because I just created it, I just don't see how it's not a real topic.--{{User:Slipstream/sig}} 06:10, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
:Why don't don't you think this isn't necessary Techgeekmbg. I think it's fine. If you think this should be merged into [[Parents]], that's not a likely  going to happen. [[PBS]], is possibly a choice. {{User:Sam the Man/sig}}  14:25, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
I don't really think it's fair to merge into PBS, it's not made completely for children, it's just a public channel--{{User:Slipstream/sig}} 01:36, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
:Children are referenced pretty rarely. And when they are, you don't "see them", they're just mentioned. I don't think we need this.[[User:Timic83|Timic83]] 05:36, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
::This is a stub, there are more references out there, and even still, we have 6 references already, and you see the [[The Sad Kids]] and [[Nibbles]] and surely there are more, how are they not referenced often?--{{User:Slipstream/sig}} 11:10, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
::There are a number of item pages in the wiki (for example [[Boats]]) where the reference is infrequent or rare.  If the Children page is deleted (treating it as an item), then the other items that are infrequently mentioned or notice should also be revaluated.  This would be a case of list creep.

:::So...is this going to be resolved any time soon, since nobody is saying anything...--{{User:Slipstream/sig}} 13:35, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
::::6 is more than 3, i remember learning that in school. '''keep''' {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 03:42, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

well, maybe some of the appearences listed don't have very strong connections to actual chldren (i.e., the original book,) but children are a part of the website, and therefore it should stay.  --[[User:Acam30|Acam30]] 19:33, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
:Yeah, I say keep it.[[User:Timic83|Timic83]] 22:02, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

OH!!! I just had an idea: '''MERGE CHILDREN WITH [[BABIES]].''' Good idea or bad idea? [[User:Haldo|Haldo]] 21:17, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

This page is extremely unnecessary. When I was trying to come up with a suitable rewrite for the introduction, it occurred to me that there isn't anything special about any of the mentions of children on H*R. They never appear in unusual contexts. That differs from something like [[Eggs]], where eggs often show up in weird or memorable places. {{User:Homestar Coder/sig}} 22:28, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
:well... the van is odd, but other than that, it's just generic... not sure... '''neutral''' {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 22:31, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
:[[:Image:childrend.png|Well, almost never]]. But I still agree. Not notable! Ding! --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 22:33, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

-::This does not run nor is it a gag. Several times characters will blink at regular intervals (Homestar, Marzipan, Strong Sad) and yet that is not even a page. I do , however see reason to merge it with babies (see above). This is much more reoccuring theme. Oh, and I'm going to go make blinking now, and see if it workds. If not, that proves my point.--[[User:Jellote|Jellote]] 01:24, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
-:::Don't do that, it's called gaming the system, and it's considred obnoxious. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:25, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

-== Stub? ==
-I attempted to remove the stub listing which was promptly reverted. I understand now it's not about length, it's about what could be added. However, if that were the case, you could theoretically put that stub warning on any list that seems incomplete, and what makes a list seem incomplete over any other list? Thanks in advance for the hearty discussion to follow! {{User:Timmodonuts/sig}} 17:41, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
