List of action film clichés

Misplaced Pages is not an indiscriminate collection of information, such as a list of supposedly clichéd plot elements and archetypes. Furthermore, the contention that each member of this list has become clichéd is POV, and contains large elements of original research. NatusRoma | Talk 20:19, 14 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep or transfer to wikibooks or wikisource. Very interesting list which should be available somewhere, if not on Misplaced Pages.Hektor 20:39, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep - I think this is important material to be referenced from wikipedia entries for action films, as essentially every action film has several of these clichés. Paul Robinson (Rfc1394) 05:40, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep - List is useful. Riki 12:14, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
• Transwiki — RJH 15:44, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. (No other option makes sense.) — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 00:01, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Honestly, now. What's with people wanting to remove useful, amusing, true lists? Sana Jisushi 18:55, 15 May 2006
  • Comment. They're not true or useful. Amusing, I'd go with. — Arthur Rubin | (talk) 01:09, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep article could prove useful with a little work and consensus. Cliche's are notable. --The_stuart 04:09, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep all cliches.  Grue  14:28, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete or transwiki to Wikisource. Not encyclopaedic material, and currently a poorly-defined list with POV criteria for inclusion. Notability also questionable. See WP:LC. Stifle (talk) 15:16, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Paul Robinson and others. - CNichols 18:11, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and Cleanup. Remove POV. Anomaly1 21:59, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
