[edit] Films with no title

Films with no title (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Misleading name, not Films with no title, but Films that don't display their title in the opening credits. Reluctant nomination, because as far as pointless trivia lists go, this is one of the better ones. A summary of this style already exists at Opening credits#Recent trends, but this such a non-notable topic that to have a seperate article/list of films is excessive. The article was tagged as original research in March asking for "sourcing for the concept described in this article" but no sources have been added. Masaruemoto 01:27, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Weak Delete Although it is interesting, it has no sources. Every film on the list has a title, so the article title in completely inaccurate as the nom states. the_undertow talk 02:49, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Moderately weak delete There might be something in this article that belongs in Opening credits but this article is probably at the wrong title, and it isn't even sourced as a whole, so it may be OR of a sort. FrozenPurpleCube 03:17, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - Obvious OR. Without any reliable sources, it must go. -- Cielomobile talk / contribs 04:42, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete OR/cruft. Lankiveil 11:16, 16 May 2007 (UTC).
  • Weak Delete Interesting list, but make it a website and add an external link at some film-related article. JJL 11:56, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Interesting but is WP:OR as well as being a largely trivial subject. Arkyan • (talk) 14:35, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Fails WP:OR and WP:NOT#INDISCRIMINATE, not to mention WP:Whattheheckisthepoint? Djcastel 15:47, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep. Well written, and adds to the encyclopedia. The deletion of this article will be an indicator of our broken deletion rules. sigh.... Abeg92contribs 22:59, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete if for no other reason than the films have titles. Even overlooking that rather obvious flaw in the article's premise, if there are reliable sources regarding the trend in the motion picture industry to redesign the opening credits to omit mention of the title then an article on that topic would certainly be welcome. A list of films with their opening credits so structured is not. Otto4711 22:02, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as original research, and as an indiscriminate list of information. Acalamari 22:09, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Keep with rename It's actually rather interesting to see how many films don't give the title in the movie itself, but to say the films have no title is absurd.--66.127.52.209 20:11, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
