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.
 


This is not especially notable. It's a painting that has appeared once. As a one-off joke, I don't think it deserves a page of its own. Delete. - Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 04:10, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

I don't think it'd even be a very good redirect to Hanging Objects. --DorianGray 04:11, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
I agree. Delete Loafing 04:14, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm now confused. How is Wetski notable and Velvet Painting not? Especially since Strong Bad directly refers to the painting in the toon. wbwolf (t | ed) 04:34, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
Well, we have Hanging Objects where we note all these items. This article essentially duplicates that. Now, if it were seen often and used as, say, a running gag, then it might merit an article of its own rather than an entry on the page of hanging objects. On the other hand, the Wet-Ski isn't really notable on a catch-all page, but it deserves noting, so it has an article. If there were a lot of closely-related items like the Wet-Ski which all had one or two appearances each, then I'd support deleting the Wet-Ski article in favor of including it on a new page detailing all those items. Does that make sense? - Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 14:56, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
He does refer to it. And it does play and important role. It's not like it was just a background item. Keep. Though, I had a feeling that this was going to be questionable.
It's not in doubt that it's referred to, or that it plays an important role. It's a picture listed on Hanging Objects, and the article essentially 1) describes the painting and 2) makes a supposition about the scene depicted. None of that is really necessary, as we can see the picture just fine and already know all that. - Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 15:01, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
