Past/Present Tense tends to depend on the writer I suppose. We don't really have much of a hard and fast guideline for that. Keep it consistent; don't switch between "is" and "was" in the profile. Consider using "is" for active characters maybe or perhaps "was" for those who are no longer being actively produced.

The Alex Danver's Alien Gun page got deleted by Mikex20 so I don't know what you did wrong exactly. But usually, it's a matter of simply creating a new page and adding images and text to it and detailing in the Categories List where it belongs. The same thing is with creating a team page.

Objects is a catchall term for physical items and Weapon is a bit more specific. We've been meaning to create an infobox template for these pages like for the Races/Teams but it's still a work in progress unfortunately.

We basically don't want a lot of miscellanous junk in the wiki; so we prefer that any object/weapon/vehicle be either unique or a signature part of the character itself like Dirty Harry's Magnum. A regular .38 pistol for example is not exactly something we think the wiki needs nor a regular police car page.

Otherwise, a signature weapon unique to a character is most definitely something that you can add to our wiki. Alex Danvers' Alien Gun though is a bit of a mouthful though ... and Alien Gun is a bit generic. Maybe list it under the name of the alien species whose gun it was? Like Chitauri Gun from the MCU?

Hellboy does have a link to the Samaritan in the Categories List on the bottom of his personal page. Otherwise, we like to try and keep the category lists free of as much clutter as we can. If an item does appear or is a major part of the plot of a movie or there a number of episodes in a TV series that are dedicated towards it then we feel it should be listed in the categories.

Otherwise, the Movie Pages have an Associated Pages Section where one can list everything in exhaustive detail that appears in the film even cameo appearances. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope is one of the best examples we got I think. And the specific TV episode page where these items/races/locations/etc. have appeared can have a similiar list too.

One shortcut trick that I've figured out is to create a category link at the bottom of a page that is missing it; say your Neely Capshaw profile page and type in Baywatch (Team). It'll create a red text link since it can't find one and if you click on the link; it'll ask you if you want to create the page. You can just type in a quickie description of what Baywatch is and save it like that. For more details, under the Toolbar "Add Features and Media" there is the Team Infobox Template which will provide you with a text box of detailed stuff you can fill out about Baywatch itself if you want. The Avengers is one of the best examples of the team pages that we have if you want an example to study.
