Talk:I am Error

Title
Shouldn't the "a" in "am" be capitalized? czar ♔  13:24, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
 * I was going to use that, but initially I saw a lot of non-capitalized "am" in articles so I changed it early on. - New Age Retro Hippie (talk) (contributions) 13:29, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
 * I think it makes the most sense as written. The original (English version) was in all caps, but in context it's a line where a third party tells Link his name. Grammatically such a sentence would follow the "Hello. I am John." pattern rather than the "I Am Legend" pattern used for media titles. -Thibbs (talk) 10:35, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

The first sentence of WP:NCCAPS and WP:NCVG's General point #2 both seem to suggest that "I Am Error" is not the correct title here. The original form of the sentence in the game uses all caps (i.e. "I AM ERROR") but since Wikipedia uses standard capitalization, I think "I am Error" makes more sense. In light of the recent page move I've invited User:Prosperity to join us here. -Thibbs (talk) 14:03, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Screenshot
I assume one would be justified? Tezero (talk) 17:27, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm not really 100% with you on that. I wouldn't go as far as to call it decorative, but at the same time I feel that the only really notable aspect of the article is the quote. In fact, we could arguably recreate the text as a free-use image, couldn't we? - New Age Retro Hippie (talk) (contributions) 02:19, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I think it would be acceptable from a legal standpoint, but I know that some Wikipedians adhere to a stricter standard than traditional fair use. I guess the argument for its inclusion would be if the screenshot image itself (or the font and textual layout or the sprite, or other visual aspects) shares associate memetic value with the text. A WP:GOOGLE (image) test does suggest that a visual component may be significant to a full understanding of the meme. Anyway I'm not going to push for it, but if a screenshot is included one day, I'd suggest modeling the NFUR on that of File:Aybabtu.png. -Thibbs (talk) 17:15, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
 * While there's some argument to be made there, I still feel that we'd need more worthwhile discussion of the visual scene from Zelda II before we include a screenshot. I suppose the idea of it being so heavily used is a pretty fair argument, since it doesn't do much harm at all to be used. Like I said though, I wouldn't fight for its removal if someone did add it. - New Age Retro Hippie (talk) (contributions) 09:36, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Although the quote is notable, it is notable because of its origin and how it is used. Is it a picket sign saying "I am error" or just appears in a random spot? Providing the original screenshot of the origin of the game is far more informative to the reader on why its notable in the first place by showing the nature of the text and where its being used.


 * It would be pointless to provide the an image of the text when they can read the article. Lucia Black (talk) 05:51, 9 May 2014 (UTC)


 * I support the motion to put an image in this article. Something like this, though obviously smaller. Dogman15  ( talk ) 12:20, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
