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.
 

Corpy NT6

Now that the Corpy NT6 has appeared, this page is kinda obsolete. Should it be merged with Corpy NT6? — Has Matt? (talk) 22:51, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

Methinks so. Bluebry 22:56, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
How do you know the Office Computer and the Corpy NT6 is the same computer? The Office Computer exploded in Biz Cas Fri 3 and was never seen again (the computer seen in Decemberween Short Shorts could have been the Corpy since we didn't see a view of it from the front). -Jeppo (TLC) 17:49, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
Yes, true. We never saw Corpy from the side and we never saw Office Compy-san from the front. Except for the puppet version, which shouldn't count, being an alternate universe and all. I think we can just add a line of "This computer may or may not be the Corpy." --DorianGray 18:08, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
Which one of these is not like the other one?
No merge. They appear to be different computers. From decompiling the Flash file for the four non-puppet appearances of Strong Bad's work computers, they are all the same except for the one in from work. TBC went out of their way to create a new computer from the side as well as from the front, so I think it's clear that they're intended to be different.
Now that we know that they're different computers, I think they should have separate articles, since Tangerine Dreams and The Cheat's iMac (2006) have separate articles. Trey56 07:45, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
There's also the point that the pre-from work office computer's monitor is not practical, which is not obvious until you decompile the Flash file as you did, so the scale was fixed in from work where it was featured more prominently. I, for one, do believe that the computer featured in those other 'toons is the Corpy. --Jay (Talk) 08:01, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
PS. I forgot to put in bold. Merge 'em. ;) --Jay (Talk) 08:04, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
Oh, you do have a good point there — perhaps it's not as open-and-shut as I'd thought. Trey56 08:03, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
