:{{c|oppose}} This is a stub. More so, this page is intended to be expanded on to include more than just the marketing poses of the game.

I could run over to [[Skins]] page and say that it "serves no notable purpose" for the very reason that it doesn't cover anything overly important (by the logic being applied here).

Weapon Associated - Gunboats

I'm thinking this should be removed for the Soldier. The weapon isn't actually in the shot. Otherwise, we could just add "Gunboats" to the other two Demoman shots below. Open to discussion StarYoshi 22:29, 26 November 2010 (UTC)

I agree. Unless there's any objections, I'm removing it. --Jetamo 10:17, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

Weapon Associations Revisisted

This is a question I'd like to present simply because I can't think of a really clear-cut answer. Some of these poses (e.g. many of the Soldier ones) are directly tied to a weapon, or have a weapon in the actual model/on the TF2 blog. However, some of these (like the Scout pose) were not directly aimed at marketing the Scattergun so much as the double-jump-crouch bug. I'm just thinking we need a sort of standard: 1) Do we include a weapon associated only if the weapon was a part of the actual pose? 1a) Should we only include weapons if the pose was made for the marketing of that weapon? (e.g. Scout pose) 2) If a pose is related to a weapon (e.g. Demoman poses for Victory/loss), should the weapon be added to the pose. 2a) If a pose is lacking a weapon, should the "Weapon Associated" column stay empty?

What do you guys think? StarYoshi 18:02, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

I'm suggesting this page for deletion.

I'm not certain why we have this page, but it serves no notable purpose. What say you? Is this page worth removing? Zoolooman 21:12, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

I'm a bit confused, I assumed it was referring to humiliation poses by the title. As is, it serves no purpose whatsoever.--Subtlefuge 21:13, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

Pictogram minus.png Oppose This page has potential in my opinion. I don't think deleting it is a good idea. -- OluapPlayer (t) Howdy, pardner! 21:26, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
I'm opposed to the deletion also, I don't believe the deletion reason has much merit in this instance. seb26 [talk] 21:27, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
Pictogram minus.png Oppose I oppose deletion. While trivial, these poses have been used to promote important parts of TF2's history. If anything, they should be reimplemented into the articles they promote (WAR! Update, post-war update, Demoman/Soldier/Heavy article, etc). Sorry, forgot my tildes. Sven 21:33, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
