List of works titled "from Outer Space"

Extreme violation of WP:NOT#DIR of loosely associated topics. A list of things with no connection, other than containing the words "Outer Space". Apparently a fork from Outer space (disambiguation); this list didn't belong there, but it certainly doesn't belong here either. Masaruemoto 00:10, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NOT#DIR. --_Hdt83 ^Chat 00:26, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as per above. (lemonflash)^talk 00:29, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - indiscriminate list with a trivial inclusion criterion. --Haemo 00:38, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - it reminds me of all those cartoons, inspired by at two films, that have had the title, "The Incredible Shrinking ______" (although Gene Rayburn turned that into a memorable Match Game episode) Mandsford 01:15, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete sigh, yet another really fun list that has to bite the dust. Personally I find these things really cool, but I know WP is not the place for them. There needs to be a wiki just for lists. Capmango 03:24, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete sheesh. JJL 03:26, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete—as per Haemo. --Paul Erik 04:59, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh god, noooooo. Delete per ↑. Transwikify to Wiki-lists. --Evb-wiki 05:01, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, I agree. --Tone 14:11, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - As per nom. List-cruft.--Edtropolis 15:02, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom and the above. Lumping items together based on some common element from their name is a textbook case of what wikipedia is WP:NOT. Arkyan  ^(talk) 15:51, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- per all of the above. Eddie 18:05, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep - "from outer space" titles could almost be considered a separate subgenre of cult science fiction, I think. Most other words used in the title aren't notable criteria for articles, but I believe these three words are. 96T 19:00, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete if there's something to what 96T says, it can be added to Extraterrestrial life in popular culture until someone comes along to delete that "popular culture" article. Carlossuarez46 19:23, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I am compelled to ask why was this page created? Its classic sort of page that User:Eep², who is currently banned, would have created. See Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Eep and Wikipedia:Community sanction noticeboard. —Gaff ^ταλκ 21:19, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
