Talk:Anti-aircraft gun

Delete
This is a fixed artillery unit and not an anti-aircraft gun. This page is thus incorrect and the weapon should be mentioned on the howitzer page.--Kingclyde 04:08, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * It is visually different than a howitzer and fixed gun, furthermore the gun is an anti-aircraft gun as evidenced by it shooting down the presidents VB-02 Vertibird during Arizona Killer. An artillery piece on a dam is entirely pointless, as the biggest threat is from the air. Mictlantecuhtli 04:23, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * They are all going to go on an artillery page. With a breakdown of each type. This may have been used in that instance but it is not an anti-aircraft weapon. A howitzer, properly aimed can do it as well. This is actually a fixed artillery gun. Anti-aircraft weapons utilize multi-barreled guns with small caliber rounds, not shells.--Kingclyde 04:35, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * The game clearly calls it an AA gun, and there is enough about each "artillery" weapon to warrant individual pages, well maybe not for the fixed gun though I worked a lot on those pages today, now all of a sudden they are a hot item and going to be condensed into one footnote page featuring all of them?

This more greatly resembles an anti air flak gun than a ground to ground weapon to me.-- 04:43, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * The game clearly calls it an AA gun, interact with the Hoover Dam gun control console (even if you don't have Arizona Killer). It says it is an AA (anti-aircraft) gun. Mictlantecuhtli 04:47, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * "Hot item"? So you think because "I" noticed something that I don't believe was correct, it is now a "Hot item"? And in my opinion, there isn't enough information to warrant a page of it's own and at the time I thought it was misnamed. There is no need to get upset that someone is questioning your edits. Again, this does not need a separate page. In the GECK it is called a turret and uses the same skin as the Nellis artillery. This should be listed as a variant stating it is used in this quest and that is it. And the "article condensation" as you call it, has always been around. Also on a final note, when someone puts up a delete tag as I did, the article creator should not take it down. I called the article into question, you removing it is bad form. Either myself or another editor can remove it. The article creator should never take it down. Just common sense. Thanks.--Kingclyde 05:00, July 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * I removed it because the game clearly calls it an AA gun and the developers meant it to be one as it shoots down an aircraft. I don't care what bits they recycled from other weapon models, the intent was an AA gun. I don't mind if you merge this and the fixed gun into the howitzer page or a general artillery page. Though I do think if an artillery page is made then Archimedes II, Highwater-Trousers and Bradley-Hercules should all go on it as well, since they are essentially artillery just of an orbital variety.
