List of movies that begin with C (and other List pages created by Allareequal
Another useless list from the author of List of R rated movies. This message brought to you by the letter C and the number 86. --Xcali 16:15, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

It's not in the encyclopedia. --Allareequal 16:23, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC) 3,500 C movies won't fit on one page? That is a shame. --Allareequal 16:56, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC) Why do you care so much about my lists? --Allareequal 17:35, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC) Are you the only person that thinks so? Then why are people voting? --Allareequal 17:40, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC) Redirect is the best bet. --Allareequal 17:59, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC) List of movies that begin with C. --Allareequal 18:03, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC) People got to vote. --Allareequal 18:05, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. I think he's missing a few. A few thousand, that is. -- BD2412 talk 16:34, 2005 Jun 15 (UTC)
 * People can add on to the list. --Allareequal 16:36, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * The point is that the list will be unmanageable - Eberts' movie guide counted about 90,000 movies that have been made as of 2004; about 1/26 will start with "C", so that's almost 3,500 - too many to fit on a page. -- BD2412 talk 16:54, 2005 Jun 15 (UTC)
 * This user has also started other useless, misspelled, overly broad, and/or nonsensical lists such as List of Star Wars villians, List of children's movies, List of foods that contain rice, List of Tony Hawk Pro Skater video games (there are only four or five, gee whiz), &c. I vote a strong delete on all of them, and would somebody please explain to the user what Wikipedia Is Not? jglc | t | c 16:50, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * User has also created List of suspense movies, List of X-Men villains, List of movies with Ghost in the title, List of well known people with the last name Moon, List of fictional captains, List of Star Wars villains.jglc | t | c 17:26, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * User has created List of movies with the word Hero in it (amusingly enough, the only entry on the list is Hero), along with List of comedy movies and List of online auctions (because it was so important to have an entry listing eBay and Yahoo! Auctions). jglc | t | c 18:06, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * User just created List of movies with New York in the title and List of people named Ghost in video games. jglc | t | c 18:11, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of films: A-D Kappa 17:06, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete all articles created by Allareequal (as of now). -R. fiend 17:14, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Note: I'm also wondering if List of karate competitors can be deleted along the same arguments - too broad, a full listing of all persons who have competed in martial arts tournaments would be ridiculous. jglc | t | c 17:21, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Because they do not belong here, and yet you persist in creating redundant, overly specific (or overly broad), and nonsensical lists. jglc | t | c 17:38, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * People are voting to delete your lists. jglc | t | c 17:43, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete We care because this is an encyclopedia.  These lists are pretty much useless and so do not add to Wikipedia.  While Wikipedia is not paper, articles can not be too long, and 3500+ movies, (most of which will be unnotable,) will take up too much space. Sonic Mew 17:45, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * D is for Delete; that's good enough for me.  ral  315  17:58, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * For what? jglc | t | c 18:02, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * How about all of your nonencyclopaedic lists get deleted? jglc | t | c 18:04, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

You don't lay off do you? --Allareequal 18:12, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Not really, no. And yes, people got to to vote.  And we have voted delete! Sonic Mew 18:13, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)


 * You don't, I don't. jglc | t | c 18:12, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete Unencylopedic You (Talk) 18:14, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

Helping Wikipedia is not hurting and Helping is what I do. --Allareequal 18:15, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * This isn't helping! Try to understand that. Sonic Mew 18:16, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)
 * Someone give Allareequal a temperary block already before he ties up VfD for the next month. -R. fiend 18:20, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Redirect to List of films: A-D per Kappa. Mgm|(talk) 18:21, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

I'am not trying to tie up VFD. Jasong talked to me about what I'am interested in. --Allareequal 18:22, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: Yes, I had a little chat with Allareequal on his User Talk, and he just recently made a positive contribution to Enter the Matrix. He also created On The Contrary, which seems to be a valid entry, if very stubby. It seems that he is not ill-intentioned, simply a misguided new Wikipedian, and we may have helped fix this... let's wait and see. jglc | t | c 18:24, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * As long as he stops making utterly stupid list pages it's fine with me. -R. fiend 18:27, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * No problems. Raul654 dropped him a line and helped clean up the nonsensical lists, and I'll try to keep helping him out whenever I can. jglc | t | c 18:31, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Thank you very much Jasong. I hope you will see that I can contribute good information to Wikipedia. I'am very sorry for tieing up vfd. If i can do anything whatsoever to help out please let me know. Thanks again. --Allareequal 18:25, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Stupid list pages? Stupid is not a real word unless you mean it as a slur but anyway I'am not here to make enimies. I'am trying my best. --Allareequal 18:29, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: Good work jglc and Raul654. I think a few other editors could afford to reread Please do not bite the newcomers. DS1953 19:37, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, good job. Still delete. --Scimitar 23:28, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete unmaintainable list. JamesBurns 23:40, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Redirect as there's already a list of movies page... and also, I concur with DS1953, we were all newcomers once... I think you guys were a tad harsh. Sasquatch&#08242;&#08596;Talk&#08596;Contributions 00:07, Jun 16, 2005 (UTC)
 * While some of us may have been slightly harsh I would like to point out that while, yes, we all were new users once, I sincerely doubt any of the above voters ever behaved like this, particularly after being told numerous times that such behavior was disruptive and not appreciated. He continued to make lists only slightly more viable than List of movies with the words "good", "bad", and "ugly" in the title on one extreme, and List of movies about stuff on the other, as well as making substubs that didn't even contain the most basic information an article requires. Most had to be salvaged by some of us who cleaned them up to make them even minimally viable. I can't speak for the user's intent, not knowing what it is, but keep in mind intent is the difference between murder and manslaughter. It doesn't get you off the hook entirely. -R. fiend 02:48, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete the movies starting with C and other lists that have no encyclopedic value. List of online auctions looks useful, the others not. Pavel Vozenilek 23:36, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Jonathunder 15:56, 2005 Jun 19 (UTC)
