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.
 

I believe we discussed not to make a page about this...anyway, I don't think its necessary to have a walkthrough for SBCG4AP, even if its a direct copy of the Telltale WT. Although, we could just link to the TTG walkthrough for the sake of not wasting a page. DevonM(talk·cont-ribs) 02:52, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Well what about a more complete walkthrough? One that explains EVERYTHING to do in the game? Including the secret hidden stuff not included in TellTales walkthrough... --TheDenzelTheDenzelsiglogo.gif 03:41, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
That is a bit more than a mighty undertaking. - Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 04:13, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
Well isn't that what this wiki does? You documented everything in Peasant's Quest.... why should this be any different, if not more important? --TheDenzelTheDenzelsiglogo.gif 04:14, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
We do not reinvent wheels, though, and this article duplicates effort by a company which benifits TBC, and so this article can be seen as a conflict of interest. The walkthrough exists. Just as the toons exist online already, and there is no need nor desire to mirror them here, the walkthrough can also be linked to, and none will be the wiser. We do no service to TBC by duplicating their efforts. To get to the achievement suggested, we need to move through that, and I'm not sure it's in our best interest. I'd like to see us document the various obscure references, but as a walkthrough might be too much. - Qermaq - (T/C) Image:Qermaqsigpic.png 04:23, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
Well then why not use this page, or something similar to point out secrets, and transcribe the various events that happen in the game. --TheDenzelTheDenzelsiglogo.gif 04:48, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
