List of taglines in the Alien franchise

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. In the Alien franchise, there is one famous tagline, "In space, no one can hear you scream." This does not mean that the other taglines in the franchise are worth noting, especially to the point of creating a stand-alone list. List of taglines in the Jaws franchise was deleted, and List of taglines in the Predator franchise looks to be heading the same way. Erik (talk &#124; contrib) (ping me) 18:52, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Merge back into Alien (franchise). GoldenRing (talk) 09:53, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't think any of this should be merged. The famous tagline is already identified at Alien (film), and the rest are indiscriminate. We should especially avoid covering promotional materials unless there is "context with explanations references to independent sources" per WP:IINFO.

 * Well, fair enough, though I don't think the line here is hard and fast. The standard for what goes in an article is lower than what makes an article.  I'm happy either way, really; if there's anything worth salvaging, it should get merged.  Otherwise, it can go. GoldenRing (talk) 14:03, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete. There really isn't anything to merge.  If people really, really want to merge, then I guess that's alright. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:10, 27 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Merge only what is verifiable in reliable sources. Interestingly enough, I did not find listed in either the list nor franchise article the more notable "Get away from her - YOU BITCH" though it is at Wikiquote. Go figure.  Schmidt,  Michael Q. 01:18, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete In Wikipedia, no one can hear you lvote keep . The only really notable one is already in Alien (film). Clarityfiend (talk) 00:47, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - Whilst I'm sure the editor means well - This isn't encyclopedic and pretty much non notable. →Davey 2010→  →Talk to me!→  02:40, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
