message: The set index article (formerly disambiguation page) is totally redundant to the franchise page. Since the 1974 original film is popular, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre should be redirected to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. The remake and the franchise are not that popular.

replies: text: Betty Logan, are you going to tag the page as WP:AFD? I can imply that it would be on grounds for deletion. George Ho (talk) 17:06, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think that is necessary, since it's not really an article. If the consensus agrees that The Texas Chainsaw Massacre should point to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre all we have to do is turn it into a redirect and add a hatnote for the franchise article to the primary article, which keeps things very simple. If people decide to keep the disambiguation page (which I agree is redundant to the franchise article since all the ambiguous media is listed there) then it can just be moved to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (disambiguation). It's best to keep AfD out of it for the time being unless we need to push it through. Betty Logan (talk) 17:18, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  We have A Nightmare on Elm Street (disambiguation) and Resident Evil (disambiguation) previously tagged as AFD. One was deleted and then undeleted; other was supported as "kept". I guess, close this now, rename the page, and then redirect the name to the 1974 film? George Ho (talk) 17:23, 21 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It might be best to determine if The Texas Chainsaw Massacre should point to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre before doing anything else, which would entail moving the disambiguation page to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (disambiguation). Betty Logan (talk) 17:45, 21 December 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Boilerplate "compared to high grossing horror franchises" 

message: Well since I was working on expanding the article on the character, I just thought I should do a little work on this article as well. This will only be a minor contribution considering all of the other articles I have committed myself to expanding. I always seem to take on  more than I can handle and only later do I figure out that the articles I have committed myself to working on are a lot bigger in scope that I originally thought they were (sighs). But enough about my "issues" I did a little research as to the structure of franchise articles and I noticed that it includes the following structure:
Films
* Overview
* Development
* Music
* Reception
* Future
Television (If any)
Literature
* Novels
* Comic Books
* Online Stories (If any)
Documentaries (If any)
Video Games
Merchandise
Impact
Since We already have Overview, Future, Comic Book, and Video Game information in the article; all we need is to do some copy edits from the different articles in the franchise for the Development, Music, Reception, Novels and Online stories (if any) Documentaries, Merchandise, and Impact sections/sub-sections. The Merchandise section will be a little difficult but we can do it. I can lend what little help I can on the development sub-section (copy edits, and rewrites). I can't wait to see the end result of this article.--Paleface Jack (talk) 18:23, 16 December 2017 (UTC)

Also, someone keeps copy/pasting bits from Leatherface (2017 film)#Future across Texas Chainsaw articles without giving attribution. Stop please. Darkknight2149 01:55, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Untitled ''Texas Chainsaw'' film draft 

message: Is there any reason whatsoever to delete the page for the new film (Texas Chainsaw Massacre (upcoming film))? It's a movie in a quite known franchise, starring a Golden Globe nominee, produced by a well-known producer, has completed filming, and even has a teaser poster out on IMPawards. And presumably Elsie Fisher's other upcoming movie My Best Friend's Exorcism (film) should be deleted also. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 13:52, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: First, it isn't deleted, it's redirected. Second, ALL pages must meet WP:GNG and WP:NFF. For a film that has completed filming, we know very little about it. That's because there has not been "significant coverage" of it (which is a requirement for notability). All of the coverage has been basic announcements (e.g., casting, director changes, a synopsis), and not in-depth coverage of the actual film. Ignoring all of that, which is a requirement again of the GNG, there isn't enough information to warrant a separate page for a film that does not even have a release date. All of the information on that page is on this page currently, so it's a duplication. The only different is that there's an infobox and a cast list section. It does not warrant a page at this time. If for some reason we get no information on this film until it's finally released, then we can easily have the page and fill it with critical responses. There is no guarantee that his film will get release (see WP:CRYSTAL), and there is no rush in the need to have the page, then we should be just fine waiting.   BIGNOLE   (Contact me) 16:01, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

text: My additional concern is that I've checked multiple websites on film releases and this thing isn't listed on any of them for 2021. It apparently finished filming in March 2021, and by April 2021 it had a rating. You don't get ratings until you've at least edited the film into a working product because the MPAA views it. If they received a rating, then it means they have a final product. Yet, they still haven't set a date for this film 3 months post MPAA rating? That's concerning. I'm not saying it won't be released, but it adds to the fact that we know very little about this movie.   BIGNOLE   (Contact me) 16:45, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  New film article 

message: "This table only shows characters that have appeared in three or more films in the series."  Except, of course, characters such as Ryan and Vanita, who only appeared in two films, or Nikki and Uncle Monty, who only appeared in one. 104.153.40.58 (talk) 14:52, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a matter of cleaning it up. The original adder for the table I'm pretty sure just took it from another page and put in the actors/characters. It just needs to be cleaned up. For instances, "the hitchhiker" isn't the same hitchhike in the remake and shouldn't occupy the same line.   BIGNOLE   (Contact me) 15:39, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

replies: text: A script doesn't use ampersands. The fact that a script has 2 names should show you that they wrote it together.   BIGNOLE   (Contact me) 22:07, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Scripts can in fact use ampersands, I could link you to some. Although, that would be irrelevant when I show you the main evidence. The Writers Guild of America, the deciding factor on how the writing credits appear clearly list as "Written by: Kim Henkel and Tobe Hooper".

replies: text: I stand corrected. I've never heard of them as having written separately. It's always been stated that they wrote it together, but obviously the WGA has it listed differently.   BIGNOLE   (Contact me) 00:07, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
