Line 8:
*'''Keep''' or '''transwiki'''. Looks like a classic dicdef. If it can be expanded beyond that, keep. --- [[User:RockMFR|RockMFR]] 20:44, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
*'''Keep''' - The fact that there is a film by the same name already demonstrates that this is not ''just'' a dicdef. It does, however, need to be improved and expanded. -- [[User:Black Falcon|Black Falcon]] 01:44, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
**'''Comment''' If the ''film'' is a topic worthy of an encyclopedia entry, then we can have an article on the ''film''. However, just because a movie has the same title as a word in the dictionary doesn't make that word worthy of an encyclopedia article. Looking at the IMDB entry for this movie, there is no indication of what it is about, how the term is used, or the context in which the title applies. If the "Straphangers Campaign" is encyclopedic, we can have an article on the "[[Straphangers Campaign]]" (and we do). There are movies, companies, charities, etc., with the word "united" in their title, but we don't have or need an article on the dicdef "united" ("[[united]]", by the way, is simply a disambig page, no article or definition).
