[edit] German names of English movies

German names of English movies (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

WP:NOT#IINFO, exactly the same reasons that Comic book names in Finnish was unanimously deleted last week. This article was prodded a few weeks ago but the creator removed the prod. Saikokira 00:16, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Let's also make an article for Russian names of English movies, and Spanish names of English movies, and Swahili names of English movies...or we could just delete this one. YechielMan 00:34, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • sad delete - i was just drinking last night with my buddies and was like, 'what is Blades of Glory in german?' this could have been useful. sadly, it is an arbitrary list, not fit for inclusion. the_undertow talk 00:39, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete WP:NOT a list of random translations of names.--Dacium 01:13, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per Dacium. Maxamegalon2000 05:06, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Strong Delete Per nomination, as well as uselessness of article. Besides, many movies have different names in foreign languages, and are not just direct translations. Jmlk17 05:24, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as per the above comments, WP is not an indiscriminate collection of lists. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jsc83 (talk • contribs) 11:09, 30 April 2007 (UTC).
    • Delete per nom. JodyB 11:53, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete for the same reasons. But maybe an article (not a list) about the names of English movies in foreign languages/countries could be made. Vinnivince 12:33, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as listcruft. - SpLoT // 12:52, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not sure how this could go down any other way than a delete, all it is is a page of name translations. Not encyclopedic material. Arkyan • (talk) 14:49, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Mild delete. I'm a big fan of movies, especially SF, but this is obscure. Bearian 19:09, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete in agreement with all other deletes. Acalamari 23:29, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete have to say I laughed out loud (for real!) at Undertow's comment, but I agree with him. WP:NOT#INDISCRIMINATE, I believe, is the key for this. Dåvid Fuchs (talk / frog blast the vent core!) 00:05, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment Ok, tell me this: Why is there no German translation for the name The Rocky Horror Picture Show? --Infrangible 01:17, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
