List of actors who have played in trilogies

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Indiscriminate information; Any actor who has starred in a trilogy. Or any actor who has played the same role (however small) in a trilogy. Or any actor who has played the same character in four films in a series (ie Lethal Weapon), because four films are a trilogy if you don't count the fourth film. Or any actor who has starred in six films in a series (ie Rocky), because that's a trilogy if you ignore the last three films.

Anyway, the point is, appearing in more than two related films is not significant enough to justify a list of actors who have done so. Saikokira 01:02, 12 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete What does this list add to the encyclopedia? If being in a trilogy is somehow significant to the actor, great, mention it there.  What is notable about this circumstance? Shenme 01:12, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete I don't see why this list would really do any good. Each actor/actress should have a listing on their page of the movies they have been (or at least the most notable), which technically would incorporate this list on each of their pages separately.  -- s u m n j i m  talk with me·changes 14:55, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete as an indiscriminate collection of information. Under what circumstances would anyone need this information? -FisherQueen (Talk) 20:47, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete as it's an indiscriminate load of information. Acalamari 23:54, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Proposal: What if it were renamed to "List of actors who have played in serial films", or "List of actors who have played the same role in three or more films" to eliminate the ambiguity of what is or isn't a "trilogy"? Trilogies seem to be the most common example of this, which was the reason I named the page this originally.  But I could see how a list of actors who have played serial roles would be as useful, and less ambiguous than this.  Lurlock 03:50, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete indicriminate. How is this information useful in any way? Fishhead64 17:42, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Not useful to you. I've got at least 20 people who seem to be interested in it, according to the edit history.  Who are you to decide what is and isn't useful to other people?  A list of actors who perform serial roles is definitely of interest to enough people that I think it's worth keeping. Lurlock 22:20, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
