For information on why this page was created please see [[Talk:Characters#The Guys You Don't See Anymore|talk]] and [[Talk:Unnamed Girl|this talk]] (This page is far from complete, don't delete it just yet)[[User:E.L. Cool|E.L. Cool]] 16:25, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Why exactly do we need this? We have a [[:Category:Rejected Characters|category for aborted characters]]. --<span style="color: #adff2f">[[User:Trogga|TROGGA!]]</span> 00:16, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I like to see all these charaters in one page. Right now they all have short stub pages so I thought it would me nice to marge then all together. [[User:E.L. Cool|E.L. Cool]] 04:13, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)

This IS '''kinda''' a useful page, like if people want to see some old characters, that are no longer/make few appearnces on the site? HrWiki is definetely a useful place, and the more articles, the better! Just don't keep the useless and blank pages. I think this article is just fine, and I really don't see why it needs to be deleted. Aw, crap. I forgot what I was gonna say now. Oh well. -[[User:Darklinkskywalker|Darklinkskywalker]]

He's right. With this, we'll be able to delete the individual pages, and the bandwidth will never be exceeded again! P.S. - You forgot [[Trivia Time]]. --[[User:Technochocolate|Technochocolate]] 03:30, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

:That's not what bandwidth is. Bandwidth is the amount of information transmitted from the server, not the amount of information stored on the server. <small><tt>[[User:Homestar Coder|<span style="color:#8B0000;">Aurora the Homestar Coder</span>]]</tt></small> 03:31, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Ya, this is a nice page that will give an idea about what H*R used to be like. I say keep it.-Jeffrey

Homeschool may not make a bunch of appearances, but every loyal fan to the site knows him. And keep the Unguiriantes, or whatever. I can't spell them. they were almost in a major toon, and I like them.

I don't see why you want to delete it so bad. It's way easier than visiting each article seperately, and since they all have about three sentences each it seems like common sense to keep this and delete the seperate atricles. [[User:82.43.178.225|82.43.178.225]] 15:08, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== Are we settled? ==

It seems that most people want to save this page, as I do. Do we agree to keep this page and get rid of the stubs? I would myself, but I don't know what I can and can't do very much. [[User:Ju Ju Master|Ju Ju Master]] 13:47, 5 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:I guess we r, cause the page is UNSTUBB'D! {{User:Bubsty/sig}}

== What? ==
What does "nintendo-style" mean for the Unguraits? {{User:Salty/sig}} 04:00, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

::They look more like [[Wikipedia:List of Star Wars races#Jawa|Jawas]] to me. --[[User:Sam Goldfish|Sam Goldfish]] 20:03, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
:::I think they look a little bit like the [[Wikipedia:Mario|Mario series]] bandits.{{User:16 BIT MARIO1/sig}} 22:56, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

==Trivia Time==

"An early version of the quiz had Trivia Time as an answer."

Really? I didn't notice a meantion of it on [[Homestar Quiz]]. Could we either expand on this, or get rid of it? {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 06:20, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

== front page. nice. ==

:''As with all famous cartoon character ensembles, Homestar Runner went through its fair share of character line-up changes early on, before the final group of twelve main characters was chosen.''

Twelve main characters? LOL, somebody should tke Leonardo Da Vinci's ''Last Supper'' painting and replace all the apostles with Homestar Runner characters. --{{User:Nerd42/sig}} 12:39, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

::Nah, it reminds me of the top twelve in American Idol. {{User: Seriously/sig}} 12:52, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

== Thought Balloon ==
Is there any significance to the thought balloon on Homeschool Winner's shirt?  Interestingly, both quotation marks (see his eyes) and thought balloons are ways to indicate that a character is speaking. [[User:Trey56|Trey56]] 20:43, 11 Aug 2005 (UTC)


==Old Talk Pages==
Hey guys I put the old talk pages for these characters up for deletion and moved their contents here. -- [[User:TheRealZajac|The Real Zajac]] 16:21, 24 Feb 2006 (PST)
===Homeschool Winner===
* A character that looks like Homeschool Winner is among the sketches in the booklet that comes in the Strong Bad Sings CD. He's on the far right of the last page.

* HOMESCHOOL WINNER'S MENTIONED IN THE STRONG BAD EMAIL DVD! Sorry, I'm just really excited. In the bonus feature where the Chapman brothers are playing with the voices, and Mike breaks the [[Bubs]] "voice tube", Matt says: "Great, we'll have to kill Bubs off. Just like Homeschool Winner."

[[User:Homsar999|Homsar999]] 0:25, 13 Nov 2004 (CST)

I heard that Homeschool Winner was the original prototype for [[Homsar]].  As Homsar gained in popularity, they didn't need to use Homeschool Winner anywhere.

Homsar? Really? They look nothing alike! That's cool, where did you hear that? I'm probobly going to dress up as him for a halloween costume party. [[User:Stongbah]]

They look alike to me; same color scheme, are both Homestar-like characters, and were both named after attempts to say "Homestar." --[[User:Trogga|TROGGA!]] 03:00, 8 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Yeah, but besides that, there really wasn't any connection. It would be cool if there was, though.--[[User:Jnelson09|Jnelson09]] 23:43, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Maybe the fact that characters either only mentioned (Senor and Mr. Bland) or expected not to be used (Trogador) have been given some screen time, The Brothers Chap may be considering some of their old ideas.  Given the personality line for Homeschool Winner, he - if used - could take the place of Strong Bad's original role as the villain.  Either that or be a ''worthy'' rival for Strong Bad.  Horray for Overbite Homestar . . . er, Homeschool Winner.  [[User:Zhaleskra|Zhaleskra]]

===The Unguraits===
Hey, does anyone think the unguraits will ever be used? TBC did come close with the blue laser thing.

===Dijjery-Doo===
====Re-Introduction of Mr. Doo====
I think Dijery should be The Cheat's long lost brother/cousin.
:Should be?  I'm not following.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]]  --  [[User:Tom|Tom]] 14:36, 26 Mar 2005 (MST)
I think he's saying we should call him [[The Cheat's Cousin]]. - [[User:Technochocolate|T.C.]]

===Trivia Time===
I like the one on the upper left--[[User:Tiggera|Tiggera]] 17:41, 21 Sep 2004 (MST)

I like the one in the centre to the right. [[User: Poopsmith Z|Poopsmith Z]]

I Like the Center right too {{User:Homsar7/sig}}

-he is no longer rejected: actually used in thiss weeks sbemail [[User:72.28.140.169|72.28.140.169]] 21:24, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
:Not so. The cookie jar was used, as it has been several times before. Trivia Time was meant to be an actual dog, though. The idea of him being an actual dog has long been rejected. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 21:27, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

====Lil Brudder?====

The lowest one on the far right looks like a [[Li'l Brudder]] with no legs.

Don't you mean "with no leg"?
:I think it looks like [[Sherlock]] mixed with a dog. --[[User:Technochocolate|Technochocolate]] 19:55, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== Why Come Only One Girl? ==

Shouldn't the characters featured in that be included here? --[[User:Ragey|Ragey]] 11:40, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
:I'd add them, but I don't have pictures of them. {{User:Shwoo/sig}} 11:42, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

== Homeschool Winner Page ==

I think Homeschool Winner should have a page. He's had 4 appearences so far! [[User:71.212.88.85|71.212.88.85]] 03:55, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Trivia Time cookie jar shpuld also hav un pagu. someone whos not [[User:71.212.88.85|71.212.88.85]] 03:56, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

:I wouldn't really call it 4 appearances. He was on an old card, he was in Dancin' Bubs, he was referred to here and in Sample Of Style. Not enough to merit an article. Trivia Time is similarly underrepresented, in my opinion, though you could raise a stronger argument there. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 04:15, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
::I think he deserves an article. He was in character cards and Dancin' Bubs, he was mentioned in Sample of style, and he was seen in last weeks sketchbook and in SBmail Buried. That's five mentions.--{{User:Kirbychu HR'D/sig}} 12:10, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
:::He at least needs a reference to his unprecedented popularity in fan fiction (because I have enough time to type both syllables) and that might be enough information to garner him a page --[[User:DarkAlex|DarkAlex]] 06:21, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

== Wind Waker? ==
It says in the article that The Hurricane was scrapped because of Wind Waker but the connection between the two, while intriguing, is not exactly clear. Can somebody with the info please clarify this?
:It's explained in the commentary for [[Why Come Only One Girl?]]. The Chaps were too distracted by the latest Zelda game to work on the character.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 06:04, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

==Espanol==
Oi, Strongbad was much more Hispanic in the days of olde. What happened? http://www.hrwiki.org/mirror/marshmallow2.swf -ChapstickFantastic
:Go directly to the forum. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 22:21, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

== Trivia Time: Independent dog? ==

Yeah, yeah, cheesy newspaper-like subject. Considering that we actually have a decent list of appearances, while the other rejected characters have barely, should we at least make him have is own separate article? I think he's starting to pop-up enough that he needs to have his own article. Also, it seems to be a notable part of the universe as it is. --[[Special:Contributions/75.28.91.38|75.28.91.38]] 23:32, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
:Agree.  At least, I think the cookie jar should have a separate page, which can be linked from the section about the actual dog on this page. -[[Special:Contributions/170.223.0.54|170.223.0.54]] 23:35, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
::After some research, I found that Trivia Time had an article until 12 August 2005, when it became a redirect to "Old Characters".  Unfortunately, I could not find the reasons for such a change.  If any sysops are reading this, could you please restore the Trivia Time Talk page? {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 23:49, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
:::Done. It appears there was little discussion on the matter, though. Earlier days when policies like that were less developed, I suppose. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:52, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
::::You mean there was '''no''' discussion. Should we start one? {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 00:19, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
