Akira Kurosawa (talk - history - links - logs)

Is that article really notable? If we're purging THX 1138, this one probably has to go as well. Mauser 11:14, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

  1. Not much here. Should be covered in George Lucas's influences anyway. -- Riffsyphon1024 11:32, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

  5. Redirect to George Lucas's influences! --Azizlight 15:13, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
  6. This was tough for me just because he gets mentioned in so many SW references and interviews. But since Azizlight points out the influences page, I think that's all that's necessary. Wildyoda 15:48, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

  8. If someone really wants to redirect it to the Influences page, so be it, but seriously, how many folks are going to be searching for Akira Kurosawa on a Star Wars wiki? jSarek 22:04, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Redirect to George Lucas's influences

  1. If it was one of Lucas's influences, then it should redirect. - JMAS Hey, it's me! 16:20, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
    • The Hidden Fortress was the influence. That already redirects to Lucas's influences. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 20:51, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
  2. A redirect would be better. Mauser 16:24, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
  3. Most of the votes would for this if it was here at the beginning. SoresuMakashi(Everything I tell you is a lie) 09:40, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
  4. Per SoresuMakashi. This is the better option. Atarumaster88 Jedi Order (Talk page) 05:45, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Comments

  • Actually a redirect to George Lucas's influences would be indeed more appropriate. Mauser 16:06, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
    • Must everything even remotely related to anything Star Wars get a redirect? When you user the wiki's search function, if Kurosawa's name is in that article, you'll be provided with a link to that article, anyhow. Graestan(Talk) 00:28, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
      • More or less, IMHO. Redirects are cheap, idiot-proof, and save us from having a new user create the page. That's my two creds. Atarumaster88 Jedi Order (Talk page) 05:46, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
