Helvetica as a concept?

Someone created a concept page for the typeface Helvetica. This seems a little strange to me. Are fonts deserving of pages on the site?

huh...  thats weird.  i think it should get deleted

I also agree for a delete, but the main description did give me a small chuckle: " Arguably the most (in)famous sans-serif typeface of all time. Not even video games are safe."

Nah, needs to go, I reckon. Do you know how many fonts there are in the world? Me neither, but it'd turn Giant Bomb into "the world's largest editable typeface database (oh, and there's some guff about video games if that's your thing.)"

:( interesting idea, but no; it's far too arbitrary.

I'd rather see a list of games with Papyrus D:

Yeah, I think picking out specific fonts for concepts is really not in line with what concepts should be.

I like Typography but as a concept it might be best to take it out.

A description worthy of saving, but a concept worthy of deletion.  Which to choose?

I would also agree that it's a little too broad and opens a door for other fonts to be added.

Screw the haters! Helvetica 4 lyfe!

Time to add every type of font that ever was used in a game! Wikipoints time!

No Helvetica concept, but we need one for Comic Sans.

Woah woah guys! There seems to be much more to Helvetica than you might think!  There is even a full length documentary that talks about Fonts in our world and how much we see certain fonts.  Kind of a weird subject but pretty cool, you can check it out at http://www.helveticafilm.com/

As much as I've come to appreciate helvetica after watching the documentary about it, it does not deserve it's own concept page. Even if it is the best damn font ever made.

OP is right, this is dumb. Helvetica is fine as a running joke in terms of fonts, but it just leads to wiki clutter.

This is a concept that basically means "there's a typed something in a game" and needs to go. It only has 3 games anyways and surely no one will remember seeing Helvetica in games.

Agreed. Marked for deletion.
