thread_title: Add More from 

message: This move is suggested to bring this list inline with the other lists of media based on media. There is already a List of films based on short fiction, so why not a List based on novels? LA (T) @ 21:40, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I really do oppose such a move. The focus of this list is the source work, not the films (necessarily). If a film list is desired, certainly one can be created, but please don't change this to a "list of films". It's a list of written works. Her Pegship  (tis herself) 20:33, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  better suited as a chart 

message: Many of the titles are / were in foreign languages. See the T section. I changed several links to avoid redirects, but these will have to be re-alphabetized.
The question is, will readers look for works like "80 Days Around the world" under E (for eighty) or L (for Le Tour du Monde). Not everyone in the English-speaking world took French, as I did. Fewer have taken German (Der Tod in Venedig, Thomas Mann  - Death in Venice, 1971). --Uncle Ed (talk) 06:01, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Alphabetical order

message: Not all of the Bond films are in here. I'm thinking of Octopussy and The Living Daylights in particular, since they do contain near-direct adaptations of short stories from Octopussy and The Living Daylights. They aren't adaptations of the whole work, but they are more so than The Spy Who Loved Me (which is in here), and it can't be said to retain any more of its source novel than Bond and a vague description of two henchmen. If we do go down the anything-with-the-same-title road, then A View to a Kill and Quantum of Solace should also be included, since they are titled after the stories From a View to a Kill and Quantum of Solace from For Your Eyes Only. And if we choose to include any films with elements of the novels or short stories, then Licence to Kill would be included because of its use of elements from The Hildebrand Rarity. If no one has any objections, I will at least proceed to include Octopussy and Daylights, but as far as I'm concerned, the rest is up for debate. Sheavsey33 (talk) 11:43, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Crap, just noticed List of short fiction made into feature films. I guess you can ignore all this, and I'll take my concerns there. Sheavsey33 (talk) 11:49, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

message: This article is listed at Special:LongPages as the 3rd longest article on the whole of the English wikipedia.
It needs to be split.
If there are no objections, I volunteer to do this.
