[edit] Delorted maybe?

all the info on this page seems to be already decribed in the virus making this page kinda useless

I tend to agree; I don't really think this page is necessary. If anyone disagrees, I'd be glad to discuss this, though. Oh, and sign your posts. Heimstern Läufer 23:01, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

That email is not even listed for appearances though... I think it should stay, simply because... ~Linuxerist L / T 23:36, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

That's not a compelling enough argument for me. The only new info I see is the description of the shotgun, which would be a good RLR on the virus page. If we see the shotgun a few more times, maybe then it'll merit a page. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  23:40, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

So should we delete it? --Jangles5150 (words+helps) 15:37, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

I don't think we should. According to HRWiki:Deletion Policy, items need only one appearance, as long as they play an important role in the plot. I'd say that destroying Strong Bad's computer and forcing him to get a new one would be important enough to merit a page. — Has Matt? (talk) 16:07, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Guns

This needs to be deleted and moved to the Guns page.--EcotwashereJar/Talk 17:10, 12 May 2023 (UTC)

I disagree, pretty much entirely because of that second paragraph. The tidbit about the pellets spreading out feels like too trivial a nitpick to be noted on Guns, but I think it's interesting enough to be noted somewhere, and this page conveniently groups it together with everything else we know about the gun — what model it is, what it was used for, and why — which is significantly more information than we have about, say, Bubs's Flamethrowers (which is why I turned that page into a redirect). To echo Has Matt's point, an H*R-specific item only needs one important appearance to qualify for an article, so I think this qualifies. Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 07:27, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

I agree with Gfd and Has Matt, the guideline in question has since been moved to HRWiki:Inclusion guidelines and it is covered in item #3. Given how crucial to the plot this gun was in virus, I think it fits. --Stux 11:30, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
