Delete: Penis/Vagina

OK, these pages have been around for a while, but the question should be asked again. Why does the wiki have penis and vagina concept pages? For one thing, they're not concepts. They are physical objects, and generally are found attached to people. Because, you know, they're genitalia. It's not like we have concept pages for hai--

Wait, there's a pubic hair concept, too? What the hell, people?

OK, it's not like there's a concept page for index fingers, or eyes. Heck, the Eye page is an object page.

If the Penis and Vagina pages are to remain concepts, they should be renamed as "Phallic Imagery" and "Yonic Imagery" for games that contain such.

I think when I created that page, somebody else was saying it and the mods (or @Marino) said "if it's in a game, go for it". Believe me, I've created worse pages. (I didn't know. I DIDN'T KNOW!)

I believe the term you're looking for is 'yonic'.

*Googles*

Yep, you're right.

You can add breasts to this list, which is also inexplicably a concept page.

All of this stuff should be added to the Nudity page.

EDIT: or the sexuilized woman, or sexualized men page.

Video Game protagonists has both penises and vaginas. /thread.

Seriously now, what do you have against sexual organs? Don't be so ashamed man let it loose.

@Hailinel: I think there is a big difference between "imagery" and the actual physical thing. For instance Dante Inferno's "Lust" level features a ton of phallic imagery but never any actual penises. Where as GTA IV straight up has a big old wang on display.

I have to agree with Hailinel on this one. It's strange enough for the pages to exist in the first place, and if they're to continue to exist they should at least be properly classified as objects rather than concepts.

I respectfully disagree, they shouldn't be deleted..

Then the Dante's Inferno imagery would be part of the concept page. If anything, GTAIV would be on a Penis object page (if such were to be allowed), or the nudity concept page.

And why not?

If someone would actually read what Hailinel said, it's not anything to do with it being genitalia. It's just that they are not concepts and shouldn't be categorized as such.

From a use standpoint, I could see myself being interesting in finding games that have shown a penis in game, or a vagina. Not so much for games that have shown an elbow. Having a penis in your game definitely has meaning beyond "it's a body part". 
How, exactly, that should be categorized I don't know. Should it be an object or concept? 
Phallic imagery and straight-up-dick are two different things in my eyes. Phallic imagery suggests to me dick stand-ins, whereas a straight-up-dick suggests to me a straight-up-dick. But hey, this isn't me giving an academic distinction, so go ahead and file dicks under the phallic imagery concept page. All I know is that having a penis/vagina in your game is significant. Look at the attention Heavy Rain was given for having a nude shower scene that showed pubic hair. 
 
I agree that it can't be taken too far, though. We don't need concept pages for, say, areola or taint. I think a more appropriate way to handle this is have a page for "Male nudity" and "female nudity" and have penis/vagina be aliases. "Phallic imagery" and "yonic imagery" are related but not quite the same idea.

Man y'all be findin tons of pages to delete lately!

I agree with @Hailinel , at the very least these should be reclassified away from concepts.

I agree with changing it to "phallic imagery" or "yonic imagery". Or possibly just "uncensored nudity in non-pornographic games".

If it's going to stay a concept, it should be nudity. Otherwise, classify it as an object.

No one is going to search "Yonic Imagery." No one knows what that means.

Then they can find out when they do a search for the vaginal imagery alias.

people should yonic is an awesome word

and searching for vaginal would lead to the same place anyway

I would. :(

I would not be sad to see these pages go.

Believe me, I've created worse pages. (I didn't know. I DIDN'T KNOW!)

Your dirty secret is out and if it wasn't a weeknight, I'd track down the game and add an in-depth summary.

@Ravenlight:

Well, at least I'm not the top editor on that page. How do you sleep at night?

The thing is you will delete these pages now but some twat is gonna come along and make new ones later. May as well live with them.

Then they'd just get deleted again. It's been that way when someone makes a page that's been deleted before. Saying "someone's just going to make them again" isn't a sufficient reason to leave them be if they shouldn't be there to begin with.

Hailinel, Wiki Cop, is correct. Delete it because it's a tangible thing. Tangible things are not concepts.

@Seedofpower said:

Not if you add "penis" and "vagina" as aliases to the respective pages.

Also, I've just noticed that the URL for this thread titles it "Delete Penisvagina". Indeed; we must delete this unholy vampiric beast.

Object, not concept.

Your gameplay can include penises, but your gameplay cannot be penises.

Let it be known. That on this day. The pinisvagina meetings were held and they lasted many nights.

@Hailinel: I'm all for deleting them. "Them" being the penis, vagina, and breasts pages. We have a nudity concept page that can cater to the first two (if not all 3), and a breast bounce concept page that is a valid concept.

I'm open to hearing an argument against this if there is one.

Agreed, definitely objects but not seeing much reason to retain the pages as concepts.

@Hamz: Honestly, I don't think they even warrant object pages. Technically, yes, they would be classified as objects, but are we going to have an object page for every body part, bone, organ, etc.? Seems useless and ripe for users to attach every possible humanoid character to everything.

@Marino: Nuke 'em.

I'm tired, what I meant to say was....I see validation in them being concepts but not objects. Sleepy Hamz is sleepy!

But if they're deleted I can't Dig Deeper into Vagina!

I never thought of that. THEY NEED TO STAY.

Hell no. You can delete Penis when you pry it from my cold, dead hands.

They're body parts. What sort of justification could there be for concept pages?

I was leaning toward the Phallic/Yoni Imagery suggestion highlighted in your original post.

@Hamz: My only concern with creating Phallic and Yonic Imagery pages is that it would naturally have a lot of overlap with the Nudity page. As an alternative, you could have a "Suggestive Imagery" page which would cover anything that resembles but is not actually genitalia.

So now that the page is deleted how am I supposed to figure out which games have penises and vaginas in them?

@Hailinel: @Hamz: I've deleted penis, vagina, breast, and pubic hair as concept pages.

I'd say the "imagery" idea for concept pages is valid though. It should refer to examples like the picture Hamz posted, that boss in Borderlands, those phallic enemies in R-Type, and not actual penises/vaginas.

Duder, Superman 64's gameplay is totally penises.
