Featureless unencyclopedic list. WP:INDISCRIMINATE; WP:LISTCRUFT. -- wooden superman  08:58, 29 January 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep This generated from the category and should be kept per WP:CLN. The worst case is that we'd merge into Dirty Harry (film series) wher one would expect detailed cast/character info.  Note that Dirty Harry is recognised by the Library of Congress as "culturally, historically, and aesthetically significant" and so the suggestion that detailed information about it is not encyclopedic is clearly false.

 * Dirty Harry maybe "culturally, historically, and aesthetically significant", but this list is not. Presented in its current form it serves no encyclopedic purpose and provides no context for the appearances.  This context is provided at Dirty Harry (film series) (although as there's little crossover for more than three actors, I do question its necessity too), so there's no need for this article which is pretty much useless.  -- wooden  superman  15:11, 29 January 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:INDISCRIMINATE. All cast lists are present on each films respective articles anyhow. Ajf773 (talk) 17:30, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - I fail to see the point of this content fork. We have a cast list with context -- at the Dirty Harry article where such a list belongs. Of course, someone can try to convince me otherwise. Go ahead, make my day.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 23:30, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Make my day, punk (delete). This is just the casts of the five movies mashed together, something already (and IMO unnecessarily) done in the film series article. There is almost no overlap (besides Harry, only John Mitchum/Frank DiGiorgio and Harry Guardino/Al Bressler), making this pretty trivial. Clarityfiend (talk) 08:07, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - A rather useless FORK from the main article on the film series, as it has considerably less information than the list at Dirty Harry (film series). 64.183.45.226 (talk) 22:23, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete- pointless content fork that duplicates (badly) content already present in other articles. Reyk YO! 11:24, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
