Why do we need this page? We have the the site updates pages and every email have it's date in the actual page. E.L. Cool 13:55, 7 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I would also like to question the need for this page. -- Tom 21:05, 7 Jul 2005 (UTC)
I'm up for deletion. —FireBird|Talk 21:44, 7 Jul 2005 (UTC)
I stuck a deletion template on. It's kind of cute, but far from necessary/useful... Homestar Coderhomestar-coder-sig.gif 22:12, 7 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I think it should stay. Looking around, I see that we have:

Strong Bad Email By Length
Strong Bad Email By Name
Strong Bad Email By Place
Strong Bad Email Intros
Strong Bad Email Page Titles
Strong Bad Email Raps
Strong Bad Email Release Dates
Strong Bad Email Statistics

Which is to say, whenever you have a large amount of data, there are several valid ways of organizing it. I like these pages because you never know when you're going to need to isolate a particular bit of info. As a knowledge base, if someone has done the research and compiled a list, it's handier to keep it than throw it away. For example, this particular page is useful when discussing the question: "The Paper is scheduled to be replaced in sbemail #173; given the rate emails have been released since montage, when will this occur?" (answer: about February 2007). Or: "How many emails to date (whose dates are known) were not released on Monday?" (answer: 18). — It's dot com 22:15, 7 Jul 2005 (UTC)

You make a good case. Mostly I put "deletion" template on it to open up more discussion (so people can realize it's in danger of deletion). I'm still undecided about whether it should stay. Homestar Coderhomestar-coder-sig.gif 22:16, 7 Jul 2005 (UTC)

And it's useful to talk about "the lost email" #22. I mean, would people back then figure little animal was email #22? -Gordon 584
