Talk:Dennis

From Homestar Runner Wiki

Current revision as of 14:49, 30 May 2015

Dennis is a featured article, which means it showcases an important part of the Homestar Runner body of work and/or highlights the fine work of this wiki. We also might just think it's cool. If you see a way this page can be updated or improved without compromising previous work, feel free to contribute.

[edit] Deletion

This article underwent a vote for deletion on April 2, 2006. The decision was keep. — Lapper (talk) 04:57, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

So far, we have only two appearences, but, I think it's obvious to know when Dennis is being used. I just don't think this article is useful. Bluebry 15:32, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

One instance is a remark, two is an inside reference, three at the least deserves a page, in my opinion. Unless anybody can come up with more than (1) instance (Fanstuff doesn't really count), then I think this is a candidate for a speedy deletion. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 15:36, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

EDIT; [Keep]: With addition of the second instance, and blurb about Dennis The Menace, I don't think it's hurting anyone. ⇔Thunderbird⇔ 00:14, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Even if we don't, this is a name that has appeared twice. I mean, if Homestar calls a guy named Mike twice, would that be an inside reference? That could just say "Homestar also called Mike in name." and vice versa on "name". I mean, we don't need a "Mike" page then, right? Bluebry 15:39, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[Keep] Actually, I added much more appearances to the article. I'm now with keep. Bluebry 15:53, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[Delete] There's not enough material here to merit a page. Essentially 2 references, which just seem to coincidentally use the same name. Username-talk 16:01, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I guess, you're right, but, what about the Dennis the Menace references? Bluebry 16:03, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[Delete] Dennis the Menace references don't really have anything to do with the "dennis" from Thy Dungeonman. This article probably needs to be deleted. — Lapper (talk) 17:30, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[Keep] Come on, keep. Jerome has had fewer appearances than this and it has a page. 65.6.51.210 17:27, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[Keep] I agree, I think that this is a worthy article. This is similar to, but not as popular as, Jerome and Douglas. ♥ _tee^eff_oh! 18:33, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[Delete] I was thinking of creating this page, but I felt it didn't have enough appearances to merit its own article. So, delete. — Has Matt? (talk) 19:01, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[Keep] The North-South-Dennis thing is an Inside Joke. I added this page to the category. Keep. —BazookaJoe 19:41, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[Keep] Jerome is fine with 2. As TBC have mentioned Dennis the Menace in their commentaries a few times, this makes sense. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  00:18, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Denny's Menu

Shouldn't "Denny's Menu" be a "Dennis" reference? ~—Supuhstar*

No. It's more likely a reference to the real-life restaraunt Denny's. DrPepper42 13:44, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] TV Times Toon Menu

Should the TV Times Toon Menu be an appearance? The Dennis Glitch... --ONESTOP 12:39, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

I was just going to post on that.--68.194.164.53 22:06, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dennis Franz?

Should we consider Dennis references to be somewhat a reference to Franz? Or should we consider Franz on the message board as a Dennis appearance? --71.157.162.191 14:13, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

There are a lot of Dennis Franz references on Thoraxcorp, under Leg Delabor's personal page OPEN YOUR EYES! (8/9/00). Two links labeled as Thoraxcorp.com go to here and here. Archived, the sites are here and here, respectively. I think Dennis Franz is a Dennis appearance.

Small edit: the first link refers to the actor Franz and the second to a scientist dude. Not the same guy!

[edit] Peasant's Quest?

Where, exactly, does Dennis appear in Peasant's Quest?

Type "dennis" at any point for a unique response. --Jay (Talk) 21:43, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

I tried, It just gives me the standard error message.

Actually, never mind. You're right. I was thinking of Dan. Don't know why PQ was connected with Dennis. --Jay (Talk) 16:52, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] More Dennis

In the Bubslegum Comics, which I can only imagine is a DVD extra (since I seen it on YouTube) has a mention of Dennis. Basically, one kid says to the guy in a trenchcoat and says "Dennis?" then in the next frame, he says to his friend "I just saw dennis!" and the fortune says "Dennis Franz is wearing a trenchcoat". Just thought I'd add this. --Still Homsar 21:20, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

And guess what? It's already listed on the page. — Defender1031*Talk 21:34, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

[edit] The Dennis sign

I spent a few minutes trying to find that sign on Google Maps. There are probably a few of the same sign, but the clearest one I could find was here, in the Belleplain State Forest in New Jersey. You can't actually read the Dennis but I'm pretty sure that's it.

I found this page about the same road via reverse image search, so I think it's a safe bet that that's the right sign. Though probably better suited for Weekly Fanstuff or Weekly Fanstuff 2005 than here. DEI DAT VM^┌_{datvm center}\^{super contra}_┘ 14:49, 30 May 2015 (UTC)
