Am I safe to claim it here? Since this page (was) empty? That Game Dude 386 23:52, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

If you are in the middle of working on it, put
{{inprogress|That game dude386}}
on the transcript section in the article itself. If you are not actively working on it, you can't claim it.  Green Helmet 00:03, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
I know, but, as there was a half-finished part, I thought someone was working on it and forgot to put on the tag. Thank you. I'll fix this forrgotten TGS! I promise!!!!That Game Dude 386 00:41, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
Looks like you accidentally removed the {{Teen Girl Squad}} and {{SPCG4AP}} templates. I'd fix that but I don't want to create an edit conflict for you while your working on the page, just noting it so someone remembers to put them back.  Green Helmet 00:43, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
What?!? Gah!!! Sorry, I was too premature in removing the stub. Fix it; I don't want my claim to destoy the links: I can't write the WHOLE article alone! Look at the last TGS transcript!That Game Dude 386 00:59, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Don't panic. Just add the following lines right at the very bottom of the page:

{{stub}}
 {{Teen Girl Squad}}
 {{SBCG4AP}}

The first one marks the page as incomplete, letting other editors and casual visitors know that we're aware the page needs more work. The last two add those fancy boxes that make it easier to navigate to other TGS or game related pages at the bottom. (I'm still avoiding adding these back because I don't want to edit conflict your work — but don't worry, if you run into trouble, it'll be fixed soon enough).  Green Helmet 01:10, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

I gotta split now, so have at it! The tag's down until Wendsday, then, as long as no one else claims it, it'll go back on. See ya! That Game Dude 386 01:29, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Greenhelmet, you're using the wrong template; you want:
{{pageinprogress}}
Your current one does nothing. That Game Dude 386 18:03, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
Oh, I didn't know about {{pageinprogress}}... but really as long as other people realize I'm editing the page, it gets the job done.  Green Helmet 18:11, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
Sadly, this is not true; as they only know you're editing a section (read the text completely). People will only REALLY stop editing with pageinprogress, otherwise, you're editing air. (P.S. Hurry up, willya? I'm hot on the trail of a good screenshot!)That Game Dude 386 18:21, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
Case in point: You read the template, and you knew that I meant the entire page even though I used the wrong template, and so you didn't edit the page. So it worked. :)
I'm done with my shuffling stuff, and I've added the summary and the transcripts of what SB says at the end, so I took of the cleanup tag, I think it's looking good. Thanks for the great work you did on the page That game dude!  Green Helmet 18:29, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
I only knew that that's what you meant because of this talk, but thanks for the compliment. That Game Dude 386 18:37, 28 September 2008 (UTC), signin' out!
Also, your item list is not in order. Please restore the order that I had, except move the Tablet and Chisle to the top, the Wheel below the Machine gun, and the Dog under the Cat. Thanks That Game Dude 386 18:33, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
Why? I think alphabetical order makes more sense here.  Green Helmet 18:37, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
Because this is my article (mainly), and because that's not alphabetical, ( C is after D?), and because the last one was done in order! That Game Dude 386 18:55, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
I made a mistake with Charles Darwin. Perhaps it would be better to put them in the order they are in the game though. Gimme a sec and I'll do that. By the way, I think you're missing out on the spirit of a wiki by being so possessive about your work here. I'm sorry to tell you, but this isn't your article. That's not how this wiki works.  Green Helmet 19:08, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
That was a joke! Sorry! Geez, so defensive! Anyways, sorry for the confusion, and thanks for reformatting. In the future, though, let's do this over e-mail, as this took a lot of space! That Game Dude 386 19:13, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Help, please!

This article is too big for me to do alone accurately! I need help, or this will never be successful! I need help!!! That Game Dude 386 22:03, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

I am now no longer fixing this article alone. Until I get some help, I will NEVER edit here again, so please contribute here!That Game Dude 386 01:44, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
Okay! Thanks to you guys, we're almost done! We just need an accuracy check, fill in the blank spots, and put some Fun Facts, and we can call it a true hrwiki article (and I still claim credit for this article). That Game Dude 386 14:26, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
And... DONE'D!!! It's over!!! It's finished! Now, we just need to check the spelling and accuracy, then we done! That Game Dude386-out. That Game Dude 386 16:46, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

6000 points

Should it be mentioned here which deaths to use where, in order to get the full 6000 points? NoMayonnaise

Yes, I should think so. If this page doesn't already have a summary section like the last one, it should get one. --DorianGray 22:42, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
I never studied that area, so I don't know what it could be. You're more than welcome to put it up here, if you know it. If not, it's just another reason why this article needs cleanup. That Game Dude 386 16:42, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
By the way, Dorian Gray (no pun intended), the deaths this time are already categorized into major and minor deaths, so we only need an explanation & point transcripts, instead of the summary. That Game Dude 386 16:45, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
We should be consistent between both articles (and future sbcg4ap tgs's).  Green Helmet 19:18, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Images

Can we get someone to put an image/s up? I can't screenshoot at ALL, and this article looks... bare-bones. If someone could find/make a CGS screenshot, put it up on the wiki, and link to it here, I'd put it up immeadiaty (as soon as I see it). Thanks, That Game Dude 386 16:52, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Image uploaded and in the article. OptimisticFool 18:54, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
U rool! That Game Dude 386 18:56, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Suggested Improvements

(1) Currently the page says that if no girls die, it's -20 points. But I got this result when I gave a girl the ribbon during Scene 3, with no other girls dying along the way. (2) There's a Results category missing.. what about when there are less than four deaths, and one/some of those deaths are major? (3) How about using the Tablet/Chisel after the other is used on a different girl? (4) I think some things need to be indented for readability. OptimisticFool 18:53, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

1: Note this as "-20 points: If no girls or only 1 girl dies a minor death.
2: Try it out; mark it. 'Tis the way of HR Wiki.
3: "If used alone" is the exact same.
4:Edit the article if you must, but mark it as minor.
There you are, Viklaus. That Game Dude 386 19:02, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
OF: I think some of your comments were made prior to some recent additions to the article (1) looks like the article is inaccurate in that case — the cases of 1,2,3 and 4 major deaths I am certain are correct though (2) This is there now, (3) Tablet/Chisel now have independent sections, I think it's clear now (what happens is exactly what is on the transcript), (4) Yeah, same is true of the Homestar Ruiner one come to think of it. I think doing it the way the responses are done might help.  Green Helmet 19:16, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
