Talk:Cameos and Endorsements
From Homestar Runner Wiki
[edit] Category
I think this shouldn't be a page, but a category (possibly called [[Category:Endorsements]], since everything listed here is an endorsement of some kind). When I suggested the idea for this page, I was thinking of a combined page with all the transcripts, not a short list of separate pages. That's what categories are for.

- Welp, although my point of view is clearly biased (since I created the page) I should at least try my best in responding to your suggestion. First off, the Sam & Max stuff is strictly a cameo, and not an endorsement. I was hoping more entries and more detail could be added to the page (I'd imagine there should be more cameos). As for turning this page into a category, that's definitely an option, but please also note that there are pages like URLs that end in 2 that are also short lists but are not categories. I suspect there may even be instances of both: we have a list and category of the same topic. Anyway, that's what I had in mind when creating the page; sorry it was different from your suggestion Gfd, since I took your ideas into a different route. I'd once again would like to know other user's opinions on this matter and the other matter. --Stux 01:13, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
- (For the record, Sam & Max wasn't listed when I made that post.) You're right. I guess this page would be fine if more detail was added to it. I still support a category, following the example of Interviews and Public Appearances (which has a page and category). Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 05:34, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
- Cool beans! I did add that later while I was trying to find other Appearances. As per your suggestion I've created a category for cameos and endorsements as well! Also, Sam & Max seem to have multiple appearances and I'm not sure what the best way to proceed is: do we add individual entries to this page, the category, both? For now I just broadly liked to the franchise. --Stux 15:17, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
