User:Rogue Leader/Lamest Edit Wars and Senseless Mud Slingings
From Homestar Runner Wiki
Occasionally, we at our fair wiki lose our minds and go into senseless (and often stupid) edit wars. Here, I am compiling these for our entertainment.
Contents |
Toons
- theme song. Is "gip" a misspelling of "gyp", or just a variant? Is it really a epithet for gypsies, or does it have some other etymology? These questions and more, and occasionally an answer or two.
Games
Characters
- Arrow'd Guy. Ah, the Arrow'd Guy. Few people have caused so many insults. From telling us to get a life, or that we are behind the times, Arrow'd Guy/Man with the Huge Mouth continues to entertain and offend us for so long.
- Visor Robot. Should the article have the descriptive-but-fan-created name "Visor Robot" or the inaccurate-and-non-canon-but-official name "Fhqwhgads Robot"? Many suggestions (and insults) are thrown around.
Secret Pages
- If I Ran the Camera. Quite possibly the biggest edit war this wiki has seen. Not only do we kill each other over a wee little link. Examples of mud slinging include "Shows how much you know" and "Rabid, zealous, Homestar Fans". Reminded me of a Kindergarden class...
Misfits
- Guestbooks. From senseless mud slingings to just plain name calling, This has it all. It has transcended all boundaries of foolishness and began to set a league of its own. Truly, this has gone from being a debate to a major headache for most wiki users.
Stuff
- keep cool. Mycroft.holmes, apparently feeling quite strongly about the outcome of this particular fun fact, created a series of sockpuppets to sway the balance of the almost dead-even vote.
