Revision as of 21:33, 7 September 2009

It has been suggested that the content of the page this talk page accompanies should not be a separate article on the wiki.

  • Please discuss below whether the content of the page should have its own article. Remember to consider ways the content could be brought up to the wiki's standards before making this determination.

If it is decided that the content should not have its own article, then the following additional issues need to be addressed:

  • Whether to merge the content with another page or remove it entirely.
  • Whether to redirect the leftover page or delete it outright.
 


Keep?

"Rando" looks too generic to me. There's only one clear reference. Besides, even if "Rando" is a MST3K reference, that's still only two. We don't make pages for everything that has been mentioned twice, do we? --Jay (Talk) 22:03, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

No, and TBC have a knack for taking a few letters out of words to make ones that are about the same, so "rando" probably isn't a reference. If there is any support to keep this page, then we also need to clean it up. The page (no offense, creator) looks just awful. DevonM(talk·cont-ribs) 22:09, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Unless there are more refs, this page isn't really a keeper. Heimstern Läufer 22:10, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Doing a quick search in the Wiki, there is one other tenuous ref (the pronunciation of "mut-ant" from space program), plus a couple mentions of influence in interviews. I also agree that the bit about rando is weak. As much as I love MST3k, I think this page needs to be deleted. wbwolf (t | ed) 23:18, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

This is way too little references to meet the page standard for a real-life show page. Delete. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 15:25, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

I agree. Leave the content of this page on the Real World References of the toons it was in. Something like this would have to be mentioned quite a few more times to warrant its own page. -Brightstar Shiner 16:42, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
Not enough. Currently, the rando issue is one of our many unanswered questions for the Chaps. Until then, delete. – The Chort 21:54, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
Not notable. -DAGRON 23:52, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
It's now deleted. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 21:21, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Another person created the page, with a second clear reference. I don't think it's enough for a page, unless we think "rando" is a deliberate reference. Anyway, I wanted to run it through another discussion before deleting it. — It's dot com 20:03, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Still not enough, in my opinion. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 20:37, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
Oh, i don't know. I think that with three references, it's solid enough for a keep. The questionable "rando" reference is good enough for a mention on Random Toon, so why not here? — Defender1031✡Talk 20:40, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
I'm not really sure. If the consensus on The NeverEnding Story is to delete it, than this should probably be deleted too. free 21:07, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
The problem with never ending story is that the later occurrences are specifically referring to the first use, whereas here, we have 3 separate occurrences referring to the same source. — Defender1031✡Talk 21:13, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
TCMF: This article should be judged on its own merits, not those of another article. (And besides that article shouldn't be deleted anyway.) — It's dot com 21:25, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
I'm still against it... and how long has that MST3K reference been on the Random Toon page?! --Jay (Talk) 21:33, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
