Not gonna happen. Wikipedia editors are rather elitist. They use notability when they want to get rid of many things, and if they still don't think it's worth it they'll ignore their own rules.
I still don't think we deserve a Wikipedia article anyways. |

I know, Mach. Thanks for all the effort you put/are putting effort into this article. I feel bad for everyone who had their work lost

| Me, on the AfD discussion wrote: | | Comment I think the article would be better suited regarding ScoreHero the company, not ScoreHero the website. At the very least that would prevent WP:WEB from applying. However, one of the moderators has just now (in IRC) said that there isn't much information about it public yet, so there wouldn't be much in the way of sources. Until there are sources about ScoreHero the company, I'm going to have to err on the side of delete. Andy Janata (talk) 05:42, 31 December 2007 (UTC) |
That about sums up my feelings on the matter.

I love Wikipedia, don't get me wrong, but the mods/admins on that site are pathetic. How geeky can they get, going around deleting perfectly good pages like the ScoreHero one for some stupid reason.....w/e, it was a cool page but it's not a big deal.

they really should have kept it. It had everything that they wanted, so why did they delete it?
idk, it's a decent article on a website. Youtube has one. Why can't we?
Oh well. |

Wiki Editor used "Mark For Deletion"!
Scorehero Wiki was defeated!
Wiki Editor gained 5,847 E-penis points!
Wiki Editor is now L8!
Wiki Editor is trying to learn 'Ego Stoke'. But Wiki Editor already knows 4 moves.
Delete a move to make room for 'Ego Stroke'?

OMGZ NO, IT GOES KETCHUP MUSTARD THEN SAUERKRAUT. GEEZ, IF YOU WANNA BE A WIKI EDITOR, AT LEAST HAVE A VALID ARGUMENT. YOU'VE BEEN BANNED FROM EDITING.

My favourite part is the big warning tag thing on top of the article advising the reader that:
| Quote: | | "The examples and perspective in this article or section may not represent a worldwide view of the subject." |
I'm very thankful for that part. Otherwise I might not have realized that the article was force-feeding me an unfairly biased, non-globalized view of hot dogs. My interpretation of the material could have caused me to become seriously skewed against hot dogs of other cultures and ethnicities.

| According to the podcast (which I listen to addictingly) SH is the biggest rhythm gaming site in the world, so why wouldn't it get its own Wiki? |

I don't see why Scorehero can't have its own wiki, the information contained on the site and the awesome score tracking system seems enough for it to be worthwhile. It's not like we're on some third-rate site with random useless information, SH is the largest unofficial GH and RB site out there.
On another note, I once changed all instances of "color" to "colour" on some page that would get 0 views per day most of the time and it was changed back in about a minute. WTF!? |

Does this call for the ScoreHero-Hot Dog wiki revolution? What's the point, the wiki editors will just delete it for notability

It's probably not a good idea to start this again so soon... especially since most users here don't even know that SH is also a company now.
