The Day After Tomorrow in International Languages
If this belonged anywhere, it should go into the Day After Tomorrow page, as a section. However, it is likely that if it was added to that page it would be edited out: this is simply not a level of trivial detail that most of our movie pages go into, or any other pages for that matter. The transliterated actors' names are not interesting: English Wikipedia routinely provides the native name (in a non-Latin-alphabet writing system) for foreign personal and place names; however, we don't provide transliterations into every conceivable non-Latin-alphabet writing system of English personal and place names. The movie title in foreign languages may be somewhat more interesting, since this is usually not a transliteration and often not even a translation, but often a newly chosen title. However, we would usually not routinely provide these unless they were of particular interest. See http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt0319262/ for some non-English titles of this movie. -- Curps 16:11, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Whatever, delete. Sandstein 16:17, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
 * If this belonged anywhere, it should go into the in other languages link box on the Day After Tomorrow page, and the names of the characters are unenc in the English language WP. Delete. --DrTorstenHenning 17:20, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Mostly like DrTorstenHenning, Merge titles to Day After Tomorrow (IMDb lists alternate titles, why shouldn't we?), delete translated character names. --IByte 21:55, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
 * The regular www.imdb.com doesn't show multilingual titles; you have to go to akas.imdb.com for that. -- Curps 22:14, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete and Merge anything useful into the movie article. There's no need to have an international titles article for every movie, and this film wasn't particularly successful anyway. 23skidoo 02:21, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete and Merge - A satire on Japanese Engrish ?--Jondel 02:24, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. There is nothing to merge as all Japanese names are incorrect. In this case, the Japanes movie title is just transliteration ('the' is ommited though) so there are no need to mention it in Day After Tomorrow page.  --Kusunose 10:46, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
