According to IMDb, there were over 20,800 movies released between 1930 and 1939. Unless we plan on listing all of them, isn't there some sort of POV involved in the selective listings that would go here? RickK 00:15, 12 Nov 2003 (UTC)

That would be the danger of a listing "significant" movies, certainly. Martin 19:07, 12 Nov 2003 (UTC)

• List of 1930s movies. We already have 1930 in movies through 1939 in movies, and unless we list all 20,000 + movies released in the 30s, any inclusions here are POV. RickK 03:43, 12 Nov 2003 (UTC)
  • Keep, add list of links to the by year pages for more comprehensive lists. We are in the business of organizing and explaining he significance of things. JamesDay 08:13, 12 Nov 2003 (UTC)
  • Integrate into existing 1930's movie pages - having articles this similar is just confusing. If someone wants to list every movie released in 1930,31 etc, it can go on that page.2toise 17:41, 12 Nov 2003 (UTC)
  • Keep. These pages just need editing and moving. I've made a start. Martin 19:42, 12 Nov 2003 (UTC)
  • Keep. I mean we are not going to list the same movies already listed in 193x in movies. Right? This sort of index pages has no harm. -- Taku
