Zeiss Agfa: /* Deletion */

== Jonny Quest ==

Right now, the page you made for [[Jonny Quest (TV series)]] is not up to the IMFDB standards and has been marked for deletion. Typically, traditional animated programs are not allowed pages on the site, and no screenshots of the series were provided on the page to show that the firearms featured are easily identifiable.

There are also a few things you need to remember to do when creating a page:

1. Categorize the page by Firearm, not by episode.

2. Add stock shots of weapons described

3. Make sure you refer to the [[Rules, Standards and Principles]] page to see there's anything else you've missed.

If changes are not done promptly to bring the page up to standards, then it will remain marked for deletion. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] 17:41, 24 June 2011 (CDT)

My apologies. This is the first time ever that I have created a page anywhere. Consider this a work in progress, and a learning process.

And unfortunately, I do not know how to capture and load screenshots. A lot of help will be needed to get any of those.

Sorry to inform you, but after looking at a few episodes, the firearms weren't drawn realistically enough to warrant a page. In the future, it's best to stay from animation. You may want to take a look at a few of the completed pages such as [[Burn Notice]] or [[Back to Bataan]] for examples. You can click the "Edit" button in the upper right to see how the page is properly coded. You can take a look at my own page for other examples and to see how I get screenshots from media. I don't want to discourage you, but it's best to try and do a simpler page before trying to something like a television series. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] 22:19, 24 June 2011 (CDT)

Ok. But after examining what was already in "Category: Animation", what I tried to do seemed acceptable. (You looked at the original 1964-65 series? The later "upgrades" and "reboots" of the franchise don't count.)

[[Image:ITLOFFiringPistol.jpg‎|thumb|right|300px|Actual firing pistol used in the film after it had been deactivated.]]
We see [[John Malkovich]]'s character constructing this two shot, reloadable clandestine handgun in the the film [[In The Line of Fire]]. The weapon is used to great effect several times throughout the film. The "Composite Pistol" is also seen used by Russel Crowe in the movie No Way Back. The weapon appears to take .38 Special rounds. The blank firing version was cut into three pieces due to some illegality issues after the movie In The Line of Fire.

'''The "Composite Pistol" has been used in the following:'''

===Film===

* [[John Malkovich]] as Mitch Leary in ''[[In The Line of Fire]]''

* [[Russell Crowe]] in ''[[No Way Back]]''

===Television===

* Episodes 17 ("''Tempus Fugit''") and 18 ("''Max''") of Season 4 of ''[[The X-Files]]''

Zeiss Agfa: /* Not to standard */

== Not to standard ==

I have to say, this page doesn't really stand scrutiny under the Rules and Standards. First off, the page is about a cartoon, which generally are not allowed. Even if it were to be allowed because of so-called 'highly realistic art' with 'recognizable guns', it would not be so without screencaps proving so.

Also, you don't make sections in the page by episode, you make them by firearm. I would think that was quite obvious by how all the other film/TV/game pages are set up. I only note all this because it is important, and this page might be considered for deletion by the Admins as it stands right now. [[User:StanTheMan|StanTheMan]] 16:34, 24 June 2011 (CDT)

This page is marked for deletion and a message for the user who created the page to bring it up to standards. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] 17:42, 24 June 2011 (CDT)

Problem is, I don't know yet how to load and capture screenshots. Never tried before. And this is also the first time I have ever created a page anywhere.
