List of animated films considered the worst

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I have no idea why this is needed when we already have List of films considered the worst and animated films are eligible for inclusion there. Some of the entries here are unreferenced. Those that are validly referenced as "the worst" can be added to the other article. I see no point to having this as a separate article. It seems like an indiscriminate list despite having some inclusion criteria at the top. DanielRigal (talk) 19:05, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

 * I think this is one for which we'd want to see WP:LISTN satisfied; if what constitutes the worst animated films hasn't been separately discussed, as the nominator said there is no compelling reason to give these separate treatment from the overall "worst" films. postdlf (talk) 20:25, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete List seems only to exist so that the animation crufters can clog up their own article with their own hated films. Beyond a doubt subjective and basically sourced with the tired '(X Film) + "negative review"' lazy sourcing that doesn't help this article by any means.

 * Delete. I agree with Mrschimpf here. Elliot321 (talk) 21:30, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
 * I would suggest Redirecting this page to List of films considered the worst. Mewtwowimmer (talk) 21:33, 21 August 2017 (UTC)
 * List of films considered the worst contains precisely two animated films. It seems hard to justify a "list of" for the topic redirecting there. bd2412  T 03:28, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. All of the references are just bad reviews, which essentially makes this WP:OR. Clarityfiend (talk) 02:38, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete. Even if the synthesis were cleaned up, the article itself would be redundant to List of films considered the worst. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 10:06, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete I'm open to a good argument as to why this should have a separate article, but right now I can't see a reason to split animated movies from List of films considered the worst.LM2000 (talk) 15:31, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep: While, right now, this is an much redundant article, with most of the content copy-pasted from the "Critical reception" sections of the articles about those movies, themselves, that can be fixed: replace forty percent or so of the reviews (since professional reviews do still have a, but only, fairly visible influence on animated films and such) with sources from 'noteworthy' (by the guidelines) animation sites and otherwise relevant suchthings, make new quotes and citations from those sources together and, finally, with the movies listed in the article, should we have to make a full list, which also includes: The Christmas Tree, Sir Billi, Happily N'Ever After, Freddie as F.R.O.7, Bolívar, el Héroe and so forth.

 * But why would we do that? The questions are why would we list the worst animated films separately from a list of worst films overall, and how what films to include in the worst animated film list are picked. Can you show sources that discuss the worst animated films specifically, instead of just animated films that happen to be poorly reviewed? postdlf (talk) 18:06, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - No objective inclusion criteria. Carrite (talk) 16:09, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect and Delete this page to List of films considered the worst and it's also not very objective to build it up from bad reviews.--ClrView (talk) 08:48, 29 August 2017 (UTC)
