Hello, '''Slum 5050'''. I'm not absolutely sure, but, as far, as I known, according the rules: | |||
"The page must have enough firearms to merit inclusion into the database, thus the page must have more than ONE real firearm in it to qualify. There are some important exceptions to this rule: | |||
1) the firearm is identifiable, well seen and important to the story. A film where 'some character' wields an 'unknown revolver' means nothing. | |||
2) it has enough screen time for any viewer to wonder what make or model it is. . | |||
3) it must drive the plot forward and not be an 'incidental' prop (like something hanging on the wall in the background). | |||
(a) If it is in the background, it must be 'interesting enough' to merit someone asking the question 'what is that?' Thus if it has enough screen time and it is identifiable, it qualifies. If it is a random 'set dressing' or a 'shape' held by a extra, then it does not qualify. | |||
4) the single firearm rule only applies if the firearm is real. If it is an obvious toy or airsoft gun, then it does not qualify. Having a lone character wave around an 'orange plug' airsoft toy does not merit a page. If the film is filled with various replica or high quality airsoft weapons than can fool the casual viewer, then it qualifies, if only to shine light upon the fact that the guns are fakes." | |||
Both pages contain a single firearm, but both a clearly IDed. As well, the gun wielding characters and actors are also IDed. This gun is seen firing onscreen. Not sure about ''[[Big Bounce, The (1969)]]'' (as it was created by another user, administrator [[Ben41]]), but the shotgun in the ''[[Highwaymen]]'' are seen many times throughout the movie and fired many times. So, it's real gun, so, I guess, that this pages are eligible. [[User:Pyramid Silent|Pyramid Silent]] ([[User talk:Pyramid Silent|talk]]) 16:11, 9 September 2020 (EDT) | |||

Quality of screenshots
Your screenshots for Trailer Park Boys appear to be of inferior quality. Can you please find better sources for these? It appeared that a previous user was able to and the ones you've uploaded also appear to be cropped weirdly. --Ben41 (talk) 01:58, 30 March 2014 (EDT)
Also, pepper spray doesn't qualify as an entry. --Ben41 (talk) 01:59, 30 March 2014 (EDT)

Hello, Slum 5050. I'm not absolutely sure, but, as far, as I known, according the rules:
"The page must have enough firearms to merit inclusion into the database, thus the page must have more than ONE real firearm in it to qualify. There are some important exceptions to this rule: 1) the firearm is identifiable, well seen and important to the story. A film where 'some character' wields an 'unknown revolver' means nothing. 2) it has enough screen time for any viewer to wonder what make or model it is. . 3) it must drive the plot forward and not be an 'incidental' prop (like something hanging on the wall in the background). (a) If it is in the background, it must be 'interesting enough' to merit someone asking the question 'what is that?' Thus if it has enough screen time and it is identifiable, it qualifies. If it is a random 'set dressing' or a 'shape' held by a extra, then it does not qualify. 4) the single firearm rule only applies if the firearm is real. If it is an obvious toy or airsoft gun, then it does not qualify. Having a lone character wave around an 'orange plug' airsoft toy does not merit a page. If the film is filled with various replica or high quality airsoft weapons than can fool the casual viewer, then it qualifies, if only to shine light upon the fact that the guns are fakes."
Both pages contain a single firearm, but both a clearly IDed. As well, the gun wielding characters and actors are also IDed. This gun is seen firing onscreen. Not sure about Big Bounce, The (1969) (as it was created by another user, administrator Ben41), but the shotgun in the Highwaymen are seen many times throughout the movie and fired many times. So, it's real gun, so, I guess, that this pages are eligible. Pyramid Silent (talk) 16:11, 9 September 2020 (EDT)
