SiIvaGunner Wiki:Meme discussion/Log/20th: The numberphile
Wanna make proposal for this since I attempted to do category for him, however fell through cause forgot to ask / do discussion on the matter so thought would share my thoughts on the manner surrounding why he should have his own "Rips featuring" category
Basically boils down to how there is clearly enough rips that feature the character himself (29 according to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoiVQSDpaOMyeZuA19PQSIzua0FuJgp0R">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoiVQSDpaOMyeZuA19PQSIzua0FuJgp0R</a>) and the former sections about appearances of him on "Main Theme (Alternate) - e" being very large to where might be easier to just have it be a category. I intend this category to more function like what we have for things such as Mr Rental where it's the character and not just like "e" and "mega man", hence why rips like "Patient (Unused) (PAL Version) - Homestuck" won't be counted here.
He's already considered to be a character on the wiki, and in this specific case it seems like we already have a single list of rips referencing him that isn't duplicated anywhere
Do we normally have these categories for characters? We don't have one for the joke explainer even though she's inherently a love live reference
yeah not sure how exactly it works since characters like Mr Rental as i mention have one Category:Rips featuring Mr Rental
i think characters should have categorys imo but thats probably more of a moot thing
I feel like the usage of original characters in siiva lore videos is not really the same as the way memes are normally used in rips, so maybe it should be a distinct thing

The relationship between The Numberphile and e (eulers number) is very weird bc The Numberphile spawned as a joke character from e, but grew to become larger than the meme itself. If anything e is a "theme song" (for lack of better phrase) for The Numberphile similar to Noble Haltmann for Haltmann or Magalor's Shoppe for The Joke Explainer 7000
his relationship to Mega Man is not as closely tied as e so it can mostly remain a note on his page rather than something to take into account for categorization
I will
as long as the relationship between Mega Man and e (eulers number) is treated with nuance

I will vote because in a vacuum, The Numberphile is definitely worthy of a meme category. However, I think that we should consider consolidating all information into a single page (probably the "The Numberphile" character page) that goes over the history of both "e (Euler's number)" and how The Numberphile spawned from it, and how The Numberphile became a part of e intersects omega
they are all so closely related it would probably be easiest to have it all on one page
euler's number spawned a character based off the meme, who is now used often with the meme
Numberphile is kind of just the next evolution of the original e meme i dont really think they’re seperate
Ive put those down on the grand dad proposal for now but i think a followup proposal will be if we consider 7 GRAND DAD and Grand Dad to basically be the same thing really cuz some people call him 7 Grand Dad anyways
Like if say sonic the hedgehog was a meme on siiva would you count the game sonic the hedgehog as a seperate meme even tho the two go hand in hand
ing for now just so it doesn't have to be proposed again, in a vacuum a category for these appearances is warranted.
An eventual bulk category re-sorting/naming should happen in the future, distinctly sorting out and rectifying any issues on distinction between whether a category should be for a meme, character, or both.
