Talk:Blue Oyster Bar

After read the history of this page, it is noted that various editors add people to be included that should really not be listed here. Sorry to spoil the fun guys Mark1800 04:08, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Deletion NOT, Merger YES
The first movie in the Police Academy series grossed $146 million worldwide and spawned six sequels. Sure, the humor is mostly low-brow but it's a notable film within it's genre (80's B movie about underdogs with some, dare I say, campy values) and the Blue Oyster Bar deserves at least a mention. I believe that the deletion of this article would be too harsh and that instead it should be merged with the Police Academy series. I admire Wikipedia for the pop culture minutia it delivers (look at the sitcom articles, and the vast amount of trivia they contain) and would hate to lose what I believe is a real frivolous :-) gem.

Agree. I totally agree with you, Lathrop1885. This article was nominated for prod and merge on the same day (today). The PROD tag could be removed, and then wait for MERGE consensus, or just leave both tags. The PROD tag may pique some interest and maybe some comments here. I propose that we wait a few days (but less than five days, when it gets deleted unless contested) and then merge into the movie article, depending on comments. And then redirect to the movie article. But I really don't think it's gonna be controversial. Or be bold and just go ahead and merge it. The merging can be reverted if someone really gets upset. However, I kinda like having The Blue Oyster Bar show up in the list of Fictional Bars and Inns. Gotta see if that can be done if it's a section in the movie article. Also gonna list this in the Project LGBT deletion list. — Becksguy 21:51, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Disagree The Police Academy (film series) article needs a massive overhaul, adding this to that mess will only make it worse. --Phirazo 00:02, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

AGree
Merge it with the movie page. It's harmless. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)

Merged
Since the majority of Wikipedians cast their votes for merger, the final count being 3:1, I merged the Blue Oyster Bar article with the Police Academy (film series) article. I hope it will have a warm welcome. Thank you all for  taking part in this short debate. Lathrop1885 11:29, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
