[edit] The Cheat's Soldering Iron

The following discussion was moved here from Talk:The Cheat's Soldering Iron when it was decided to merge the content of that article with this one.

[edit] Needed?

Come on. It should be obvious that this page isn't needed. — Defender1031*Talk 13:51, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I think the mention in Coloring is enough. I mean, how do we even know it's a soldering iron, or TC's soldering iron for that matter?CoveredinSuudzu 14:50, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

You say it should be obvious that this page isn't needed, yet it's existed since January and no one's tagged it. Are you suggesting that the users of this wiki are stupid or incompetent? If an article's existed for that long, probably someone liked it at some point and you should exercise a bit more restraint in commenting about it.

As for the article: There's no need for the three occurences, as would be necessary for running gags. The item is distinctive, though it doesn't play a terribly important role in the email. So I'm pretty much ambivalent. Heimstern Läufer 14:53, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Heimstern, I'm not saying that at all, i'm saying that no one noticed it. This isn't the first time a useless minor and unneeded page has gone unnoticed for quite some time. — Defender1031*Talk 14:56, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Well, it is certainly implied in what you say. Please note that at least three active contributors to our wiki contributed to this article, even if only through minor edits. The creator of the article is an active contributor. And now you're calling it "useless"? Come now, there's no reason to say things like that about good faith contributions to our wiki. A simple "I think this is too minor for its own article" would suffice. Heimstern Läufer 15:00, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Merge

I propose that we merge this page with Laser Lemon; that page already discusses The Cheat's oscilloscope; this info would fit there nicely. Trey56 06:40, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

I like the way you think, Trey! Merge with Laser Lemon. – The Chort 15:50, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

• Whoa. I need to get back here more often. I created the original page of the soldering iron, and yes, I was an overzealous rookie scrounging around for irrelevant pages to create. But if I was here when this happened, I woulda voted merge as well... TheYellowDart—(t/c) 05:56, 13 July 2007 (UTC)
