Talk:Poker Night at the Inventory
Deletion
Oppose This is related to TF2 for multiple reasons above and beyond other games that have had tie-ins in the past:
- It stars a character from TF2 in an active and integral role
- It provides several items for TF2 directly through gameplay

- Again, all of which are covered by other articles. There is a reason this article didn't exist until you made it. FlotsamX 23:14, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
- Once the game comes out on Monday there will be information unique to the game that won't fit on those articles. It deserves a stub as much as Source Filmmaker. --STUART 23:16, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
Considering how close the release is, and the fact that the items JUST got added to the game files, I'd say at least leave it here to be expanded on after release. --Wing Dairu 02:05, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
Support: I'd say link to the wikipedia article like in Hammer Editor. There's nothing we can say about it that wikipedia won't. For the items we just leave the nav in there. --CruelCow (talk) 23:33, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
Support It's been discussed already, Poker Night is to be a passing mention on the Heavy's page and the items currently have their own articles.
There's really no need to be creating a page when it's already been said that there won't be one. Unless the admins change their mind, I support deletion. Satorifan 04:23, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- Support No need for an article about a separate game. It's not a TF2 game. It is simply borrowing assets. Moussekateer 04:26, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
Support I don't see a point, we might as well create a page for L4D, worms and anyother game if we're going to have article for poker night Drakaenae 04:46, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
Neutral While I see your point no class was a main character in those games. --Jordan 06:24, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
Support I'm all for delete this, unless we find out it brings some more relevant information about TF2's world that can justify a specific article. Which, honestly, I highly doubt. Let's wait some days.--Kid Of The Century 08:12, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
- Support i don't think we need this. the folk over at the homestar runner wiki don't have an entry. so i don't quite think we need one either HyenaDip 17:52, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
Support With a link to the wikipedia, we dont need to make an article for this game. Sr Domi 23:13, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
Oppose I am in favor of having a Poker Night page in the wiki.
The page does not have to be all inclusive of every detail of the game, that is the ground of the TTG wiki. We can have general information regarding the game and why it is relevant to TF2. (Heavy Weapons Guy) I suggest this page should be, more or less, a landing page where the other wiki's characters can be linked to.
I do, however, agree with previous sentiments that Poker Night is not our game, so we should not parent the information. We should instead support the game, because there are some facts that we can not avoid:
- The Heavy Weapons Guy is a character from our game.
- The TF2 development team is also supportive of Poker Night.
- Homestarrunner and Sam & Max wikis both have pages regarding Poker Night. (This is not saying, "They are doing it we should too!" But rather stating that we could appear non-supportive of the game.)

Support Its a game thats not TF2, this is a TF2 wiki. It should not be here Natemckn 14:01, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
Support per CruelCow. --Leftism 14:05, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
A question on the characters
- uhh , i don't know if this would go right here to ask this but the other places specified don't seem to cover it; but what I'm asking is this, do the characters seem to anyone like they have their own poker play style? I find the Heavy to be like a "act first think later" kind of player, and Strongbad to be a "Wild Card" of sorts. I just want to know if anyone notices this in the game...?--Awesome Weegee 11:21, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
