List of R1 DVD by pictures[edit]
Impossible to maintain. Not meaningful. Heavy server load. Kill dialup users. DVD can mean many thing, e.g. movie DVD, application software DVD, OS DVD, etc--minghong 19:17, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Netflix lists about 40,000 titles (all for region 1) — we could easily fit those in. Not.—Wahoofive (talk) 19:32, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- 'Wikipedia is not paper', but sheesh this could be big - what about re-releases? And is anyone up for regions 2?--Doc Glasgow 19:49, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- WP is also not a directory—Wahoofive (talk) 20:08, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Sorry, I was being sarcastic (that never works). Oh, and yes, delete--Doc Glasgow 20:17, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Too broad, impossible to maintain, and loading the page in any sort of completed form will kill the servers. --Carnildo 19:52, 13 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Unmaintainable list, potential servercide. Yikes, imagine trying to load that sucker on dialup. Even if it were separated out by first letter, as was suggested on the article's talk page, it would be horrendous. android↔talk 22:00, May 13, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, unmaintainable list. Megan1967 01:01, 14 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Either it will be grossly incomplete or it will be a massive article with thousands of pictures. Firebug 06:02, 14 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as unmaintainable and too big to consider even under "Wikipedia is not paper". Wikipedia is not Guzzlefish either. I disagree that we need to cater to dial-up users as most of the world is going to cable modems, but this one is a wee bit too much. 23skidoo 13:43, 14 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]
