Screencaps or detailed descriptions, because if the author found the time to write descriptions of how the weapons are used in the film/show/game but haven't added any screencaps yet, there's a pretty good chance they will, and I'd be willing to bet a lot of the pages on this site started this way.

I don't think we need any hard and fast rules on this issue, because it's easy to tell when someone's put absolutely no effort into a page and mark it for deletion. Imposing a screencap requirement to create a page and, by extension, deleting any page that lacks screencaps is a bit drastic in my opinion and would, I think, discourage people who might otherwise become valued contributors from contributing in the first place. For example, even though they both lack screencaps, there's clearly a huge difference between this and this in terms of effort put in.
