Yeah but, Billy literally survived being stabbed by an umbrella twice, stabbing stu altogether, and he even survived a bullet to the chest.

Briefly. Nothing like Michael Myers walking through bullets to the face.
Edit: Scream overdoes the scenes where the killers get back up a bit, but the killers are clearly meant to be mortal humans without superhuman abilities. It actually is possible for someone who's raging and high on adrenaline to keep going after being stabbed. It catches up to them afterwards, but adrenaline can do that. And in typical movie fashion, Scream handwaves it as the killers simply being crazy. But someone who's raging and perhaps high on certain drugs or in some kind of crazed fit can indeed do things you wouldn't normally be able to do. And apart from Jill all the killers who got back up were clearly in a mad frenzy when they did. Jill was quieter but still might have been.

Hey, I noticed that Tommy Jarvis from Friday the 13th has a page on the Wiki, so I was wondering, should Scream have pages for characters other than Ghostface, like Sidney Prescott in particular, and maybe Dewey Riley and Gale Weathers? I know most versus battle minded people are more interested in using Ghostface, but the same is true for Jason Voorhees and Tommy still has a page, so what do you think?

I was gonna work on a Sidney profile soon myself, and Dewey can probably get one too. Sidney easily scales to Ghostface, as she can fight on par with em throughout every film.
Gale hasn't fought Ghostface in a physical fight iirc, so she probably wouldn't scale/be worthy of indexing.

Mainly Sidney, since she consistently overwhelmed Charlie, almost overwhelmed Mickey to the point he needed to bring out a gun to end the fight, and then right afterwards fought Debbie evenly, and later fought almost evenly against Roman. Dewey did take two hits from Roman without truly going down. Gale also dodged an attack from Roman and sort of wrestled against him when he grabbed her from behind. Sidney is by far the easiest to measure. There's also Detective Mark Kincaid who wrestled Roman for more than ten seconds.

An official flash game just dropped. The Ghostface in it can get 4th Wall Awareness and 9-B with car, as one of the deaths is the player getting ran over.

Unless its like the batmobile or transporter car we shouldn't give profiles a car rating.

4th wall awareness sort of suits for a character who kills and has highly questionable sanity (Deadpool, Joker, Mask) but not that useful in battle. Regarding the car, the question is whether it's a frequent part of the killer's arsenal. I'd argue for example that armoured and weaponised cars are a frequent part of James Bond's arsenal (prior to Casino Royale and all the stuff after) with him having chases in gadget filled cars both in films and games, with games like Nightfire, From Russia With Love and Everything or Nothing having missions revolving around those cars.
Unless Ghostface in the flash game sort of resembles that, I agree that using the car is unreasonable. As I said earlier, a friend of mine drives a large truck to and for work every day. I'd only count it as a weapon in a profile if it was his go-to weapon. By that I mean, if someone attacks him and his immediate response is to retreat to his truck and try to run them over. Batman has been known to do pretty much exactly that with the Batmobile for example.
