It seems to me like this page is all about when a character walks on the screen and other characters' conversations end. I just think this page has no value, no offense to its editor. Bluebry 15:20, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Seems like an ok page to me. Let's see how much it gwors first. Elcool (talk)(contribs) 15:27, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
The name is confusing, I thought it was about conversations that are actually interrupted by something, and my first thought was "delete this now..." but actually reading it reveals it's actually about times where we only catch the tail-end of a conversation. I vote build it up a bit, and move it to a better name. Maybe Half-missed conversations? --phlip TC 17:17, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
I dunno, it seems like a collection of conversation ending lines to me. I mean, a character walks into a place where two other characters are conversing. Do we need to write down those lines on two pages (the toon page and a serperate page)? I don't think so. We really don't need to catalogue every conversation ender.

I think this is an interesting topic, personally. It could use some serious work, though. — Image:kskunk_fstandby.gif KieferSkunk (talk) — 23:46, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

If any of you guys have the DVD collection, TBC did comment on this subject in crying. So maybe it is okay to keep it. -CoachD

I think if we actually got some interrupted conversations, like in bottom 10 when SB is about to say what number 1 is and then gets interrupted by Homestar, then we could actually get this article rolling. Otherwise, we should clean it up and move it to a different name. · · T2|Things 16:46, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

I think this page is fairly interesting, at least compared to some I've seen lately. Only, as it stands, the current picture has nothing to do with the article. -YKHi. I'm Ayjo! 01:42, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

I say change the focus solely to conversations where we missed the beginning and/or context, and then rename it. - Joshua 02:22, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
I completely agree. This page is a bit too specific; a more open sort of page name (and content) would help greatly. I think the page has massive potential; it just needs to change its goal around a bit. — Seriously (Talk) 22:47, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

The scope of the page

The heading implies that it only refers to conversations that the watcher only hears the last part of, but then describes truly interrupted conversations that don't fit the pattern. Which is it? I think it should be restricted only to the former, as the latter doesn't strike me as particularly running-gag-ish. --Jay v.2024 (Auld lang syne) 20:20, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes, that's how it should be. Things like "Yeah, you stay over there!" are exactly what we're looking for, but Homestar interrupting Strong Bad's bottom 10 aren't. I'm going to go ahead and do a little cleanup here. Heimstern Läufer 20:25, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
Yeah. A page about nonsensical conversation that we hear the tail end of is marginally useful; a page listing every dang time somebody gets interrupted isn't. —AbdiViklas 21:15, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
