This isn't official merchandise; the publisher is Andrews McMeel Publishing, so I don't see why it deserves an article.-- Shew 22:30, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

Scratch that; the author is ArenaNet.-- Shew 22:30, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

On the other hand: Are we really going to document every bit of merchandise? --Naoroji User Naoroji Golem - Green.jpg 22:39, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
Any reason why not? Erasculio 22:43, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
Oh, okay, then we will, was just asking :). Lol. --Naoroji User Naoroji Golem - Green.jpg 22:46, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
I was asking, too. A calendar is something worth documenting, IMO, in order to allow people to actually know what they are going to get when they buy this one (when possible, I'll make a list with what pieces of concept art are displayed, what's the size of the calendar, and so on). In other hand, GW1W does not have a "T-Shirts" article, and it doesn't really need one, IMO. I'm wondering if it would be better to only document printed merchandise (the books, art prints and calendars) or to document everything but with almost all items being grouped in a "Merchandise" article, without individual articles for each object. Erasculio 22:55, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
(Edit conflict) Why don't we just have a page that includes all merchandise? I don't think we should have a page for each individual shirt if there are several different ones sold. Agreed, Erasculio.-- Shew 22:57, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
(Edit conflict) I agree with most of this, I think all the merchandise, (Bar the books ofc) to be moved into a article. One line articles are kind of pointless, and we're not going to get any images from it due to copyright. --Naut User Naut Dark Blue Monk.png 22:58, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
For the records, we are actually going to be able to show people which images the calendar has; all images in the calendar are old pieces of concept art which we already have on the wiki, so we may just make a list, telling people which image is shown in each month. It would have more information than the Amazon article and similar sources. Erasculio 23:11, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
I don't think it's necessary to show what images are in the calendar. I mean, I guess I could see where some people may want that info, though, so are you in support of keeping this article?-- Shew 23:18, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
I think we could add that information to the Merchandise article. Or maybe keep this one? I don't know, to say the truth, it doesn't make much of a difference to me. Erasculio 23:19, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
