Deletion of American Sniper (film) controversies

Comment: or '''Merge'''. The controversy over this movie has become a subject in its own right. For example, http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/29/movies/awardsseason/american-sniper-fuels-a-war-on-the-home-front.html ‘American Sniper’ Fuels a War on the Home Front, By Cara Buckley, NYT, Jan. 28, 2015. I think Merge would be best, but many editors of American Sniper (film) keep deleting criticisms and condensing them into snippets, and/or adding "rebuttal." There doesn't seem to be any solution acceptable to those editors, so rather than an edit war it would be better to have a separate article. Besides, the debate involves a huge number of s and issues, and it would be a difficult or impossible job to summarize them concisely in a way that would be satisfactory to both sides. If we had a merge, I don't think there would be space for the "Eastwood's response" section. Other editors want it in. I would ask those editors who want to merge: Would you accept the merged article without "Eastwood's response

Comment: I remember a controversial film called The Passion of the Christ. How about A Clockwork Orange (film)|A Clockwork Orange? I even remember another controversial film called The Interview (2014 film)|The Interview, that yes, may have inspired the Sony Pictures Entertainment hack, but look how all of those film articles deftly handle criticism within their own article. The only devoted film controversy article I found after a cursory search is Fahrenheit 9/11 controversies, which is similarly bloated with block quotes, bullet points, and lack of editorial discretion. I see little likelihood of a |lasting effect and it's to soon to tell if |duration of coverage will be any more or less than other controversial films
