:I was never told that the ''majority'' of the weapons had to be real, just that [[Rules, Standards and Principles#Standards#General Standards for pages#It must have more than one real firearm in it|at least two did]] (or in this case, 6; the M61 Vulcan, the RPG-7, the Walther P5, the Heckler & Koch SMG, and the AK-47s and M16A1s in the ED) and even then we have plenty of quality pages that only denote one real firearm and get passes due to being well built and informative (as opposed to the dozens of anime pages that still lack screenshots, section descriptions and links or even proper formatting). Plus many of the fictional ones here (namely the futuristic Kalashnikov and the semi-auto pistols) could be mistaken for real world designs pretty easily if the viewer isn't weapons-savvy.--[[User:PistolJunkie|PistolJunkie]] 00:32, 17 August 2011 (CDT) | :I was never told that the ''majority'' of the weapons had to be real, just that [[Rules, Standards and Principles#Standards#General Standards for pages#It must have more than one real firearm in it|at least two did]] (or in this case, 6; the M61 Vulcan, the RPG-7, the Walther P5, the Heckler & Koch SMG, and the AK-47s and M16A1s in the ED) and even then we have plenty of quality pages that only denote one real firearm and get passes due to being well built and informative (as opposed to the dozens of anime pages that still lack screenshots, section descriptions and links or even proper formatting).

::You're right. There are plenty of reasons why this page qualifies to be on IMFDB. Just the real guns listed alone qualifies it. And the rules state that there must be more than 2 real (or reality based) firearms to qualify, unless there is only one firearm and it is conspicuous in the story and pushes the story forward. It fulfills that minimum requirement and more. :) [[User:MoviePropMaster2008|MoviePropMaster2008]] 03:17, 17 August 2011 (CDT) | ::You're right.

:::Thank you. I don't make pages unless I'm sure they'll pass. There have been plenty that I've started building in .txt files on my computer, only to get to the end of whatever it is and see that it doesn't qualify and thus scrapped both the draft and the screencaps. I've had several that ''barely'' qualify, but none that flat out ''don't''. And to clarify, this is one show that I started into with the full expectation that I would not be able to make a page for it.--[[User:PistolJunkie|PistolJunkie]] 09:16, 17 August 2011 (CDT) | :::Thank you.

Why does this exist?
A majority of the weapons aren't real and we don't do that kind of stuff here. How did this even get pass? Excalibur01 23:08, 16 August 2011 (CDT)
- I was never told that the majority of the weapons had to be real, just that at least two did (or in this case, 6; the M61 Vulcan, the RPG-7, the Walther P5, the Heckler & Koch SMG, and the AK-47s and M16A1s in the ED) and even then we have plenty of quality pages that only denote one real firearm and get passes due to being well built and informative (as opposed to the dozens of anime pages that still lack screenshots, section descriptions and links or even proper formatting). Plus many of the fictional ones here (namely the futuristic Kalashnikov and the semi-auto pistols) could be mistaken for real world designs pretty easily if the viewer isn't weapons-savvy.--PistolJunkie 00:32, 17 August 2011 (CDT)

- Thank you. I don't make pages unless I'm sure they'll pass. There have been plenty that I've started building in .txt files on my computer, only to get to the end of whatever it is and see that it doesn't qualify and thus scrapped both the draft and the screencaps. I've had several that barely qualify, but none that flat out don't. And to clarify, this is one show that I started into with the full expectation that I would not be able to make a page for it. I mean, it's a Gundam show. In my mind that equals giant robots, angst and fake guns, not RPG-7s.--PistolJunkie 09:16, 17 August 2011 (CDT)
