Pointless trivial list, see WP:NOT and WP:LISTCRUFT, prod removed, Delete-- Jaranda wat's sup 00:08, 12 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - Ghostbuster trivia. Wikipedia is not for a collection of trivia.  --Haemo 01:08, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. The two Ghostbusters franchises merely happened to have the same name and similar concepts (which led to a trademark/licensing dispute) -- one wasn't an adaptation of the other. --Metropolitan90 01:11, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete An encyclopedia is not the place for this type of comparison Corpx 02:20, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete What's next? List of differences between rabbits and comb jellies? The fact that both franchises have the same name doesn't make comparison of them any more natural or encyclopedic. Deranged bulbasaur 02:33, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. See the page is doomed for deletion, would it be possible to rename this article and write about the Legal battle between Filmation and Columbia? VoltronForce 02:57, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * That would be a notable topic to write about if it produced a substantial legal precedent or attracted media attention. One can't write about every corporate legal battle indiscriminately, because most large corporations are embroiled in at least 100 at any given time which will generally result in an anticlimactic settlement once the parties have surveyed each other's chances. I don't see why an article about that topic need involve this Afd or its subject, though. Deranged bulbasaur 03:13, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Would it be appropiate to point out the differences in the GB articles themselves? VoltronForce 05:56, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Only as the differences relate to the points of the lawsuit. &#9679;DanMS • Talk 05:21, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete. Maybe some information can be move to the article about the series. -- Magioladitis 06:38, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
