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 [[User:StarYoshi|StarYoshi]] 22:29, 26 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?

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

:{{c|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. [[User:Sven|Sven]] 21:33, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

:{{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. We've been debating how far to go with it, but the people involved in it haven't really had time to do so. Furthermore, you've given no other reason for its deletion other than it "not serving any notable purpose." 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). I'd rather discuss what's "wrong" with the page so we can work to fix it before we nuke the page entirely. [[User:StarYoshi|StarYoshi]] 22:06, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
 
:{{c|oppose}} Doesn't merit a deletion. Like stated, it holds bits and pieces of TF2's history and the like. I didn't even know there was a demoman victory pose until I looked at this page, so you never know! --[[User:Vaught|<span style="text-shadow:pink 0px 0px 3px;"><font color=" #FFA6C9"><tt><big>'''Vaught'''</big></tt></font>]]</span> 22:16, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
