Talk:Deserter (2002)

Are the screenshots of the Patton and Sherman tanks on the main page really necessary? I see no problem with mentioning what they are in passing if one appears in the background of a screenshot used to identify a firearm, but having a subsection with screenshots of the tanks just to say, "This is an M60 Patton battle tank", is out of IMFDB's scope, isn't it? That's more IMCDB's department and with the seemingly more widespread acceptance of having knives, bows, and whatnot on pages, it's starting to seem like IMFDB is taking a turn toward becoming the Internet Movie Props Database. :\ Spartan198 21:44, 9 April 2012 (CDT)

Not sure we have any more knives or bows than we used to (explosive bows are typically allowed, but that's about it). MPM has said it's ok for a page to have a "gun platforms" section at the bottom to identify military vehicles which carry weapons, though this isn't very common; see Red Dawn for an example of that.
