Suggestion description
Post-apocalyptic fiction often includes examples of religious or political symbols in graffiti. There are ASCII symbols for various ideologies and religions. Why not combine the two concepts for Malton?

Spraypainting the following text (if you have tagging as a skill) will yield the following symbols:

• Someone has spraypainted a circle-a here. becomes Someone has spraypainted a large Ⓐ here.
• Someone has spraypainted a hammer and sickle here. becomes Someone has spraypainted a large ☭ here.
• Someone has spraypainted a crucifix here. becomes Someone has spraypainted a large † here.

Defiling this graffiti would result in Some has spraypainted a large symbol here, but it is obscured by smears of gore. It would be cleaned away normally.

Keep Votes

1. Keep - author vote. ----Anarchomutualist _says: ^{The state is war, ⓐnarchy is order.} 02:29, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
2. Weak keep. Some symbols can already be used. Alt+Numbers on the num pad will get you, in order: ☺☻♥♦♣♠•◘○◙♂♀♪♫☼►◄↕‼¶§▬↨↑↓→←∟↔▲▼ You can also copy and paste other symbols, assuming you find the symbol you wish to C+P. But if you rather type it all out, that's fine with me. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 02:33, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

   Here is an example using C+P: [1] --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 02:39, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

   It blends better, though, because it actually adds it to the building description rather than the graffiti italics.----Anarchomutualist _says: ^{The state is war, ⓐnarchy is order.} 02:41, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

3. Very Weak Keep - By the skin of it's teeth. --E Gadus 16:23, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
4. Weak Keep - Not entirely necessary. We might need a list of all the symbols we can use somewhere. --Espemon333 01:25, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Kill Votes

1. Kill - As the Hack. I think there are better ways of doing hat you're trying to achieve. Also your suggestion should really include an exhaustive list (and if that is exhaustive, then why bother?). 02:48, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
2. Kill - As Axe. -- Spiderzed▋ 13:36, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
3. Kill - Unnecessary. --VVV ^RPMBG 01:25, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
4. Kill - killkill --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 15:38, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
5. Kill - Meh. -- †  talk ? f.u. 14:42, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
