List of films about philosophers

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The list would probably be far to long. Also, a category called Category:Films about philosophers already exist. &mdash; Music1201  talk  23:43, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. I don't understand the nominator's suggestion that this list would be far too long. It seems to me that Hollywood produces fewer films about philosophers than it produces about, say, Marvel Comics characters. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 23:55, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. All evidence seems to point out that the article would have a similar length to the List of films about mathematicians. The list of films about philosophers would be an important new resource for readers of wikipedia. --Caracas1830 (talk) 04:42, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per above and WP:CLN/WP:NOTDUP.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 06:56, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Certainly not too long, and the existence of a category has no bearing. Seems a perfectly reasonable list. --Michig (talk) 07:07, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:LISTOUTCOMES pursuant to the guideline on categories, lists, and navigation templates with emphasis on WP:NOTDUP. Readable prose size is 378 B (65 words). Sam Sailor Talk! 11:51, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
