Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Exploding barrel
This doesn't really seem like an encyclopedia topic, and it borders on original research. The article is about barrels that explode in video games and action movies; I can't think of anywhere to redirect it, but this doesn't seem like a notable and well-defined encyclopedic phenomenon.

- Delete — appears to be a joke contribution, particularly when you look at the earliest history which has since been "cleaned up". There's probably room for an article on explosions in computer games. But I don't believe this is it. — RJH 19:51, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

- Keep even more common than exploding sheep. Grue 11:23, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete it - and the sheep, too. How is this notable? Vsmith 23:46, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep, but merge into, say, level design or first-person shooter. This was one of the conceits in early first-person games that became characteristic of the whole genre, and that remain a strong influence on game design today. —Simon 02:10, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
