[edit] I'll Be Back

• del (vote changed after rewrite) original research about a not especially notable phrase. `'mikka (t) 01:43, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Are you kidding about the notability? It could do with a rewrite, but I'm not seeing how this constitutes OR. Danny Lilithborne 01:46, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I don't like to, but this is one of those situations in which I have to say "Delete unless rewritten". AdamBiswanger1 02:01, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Very interesting. I never realized Arnold said this phrase so many times. Would like to disagree with mikka, its a very famous phrase by Arnold. But it is unencyclopaedic and original research. --Ageo020 02:06, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
  • There are thousands of phrases uttered thousands of times starting from what the hell and what the fuck. The phrase is nonnotable. Period. `'mikka (t) 06:36, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Poorly written indeed, but this phrase is certainly notable. However, it does need to be moved to I'll be back (removing the unnecessary capitalization). -- tariqabjotu (joturner) 02:07, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete. But if it is kept, it should be rewritten completely and moved per Tariqabjotu. Notable phrase but in the current state, this article is just not worth keeping. --דניאל ^{talk contribs Email} 03:23, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Cleanup to the level of, say, May The Force Be With You or other members of AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movie Quotes. Unverified original research. Morgan Wick 04:13, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Keep and Revamp -- | Shishir Rane | talk | 05:22, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• 'Merge into the Terminator article. --Chris Griswold 06:41, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Merge into Arnold Schwarzenegger. While it is iconic for itse use in the Terminator, it has become his trademark through its use in several of his other movies and in public speaking events as governor. Ex [1] and [2] Agne 08:46, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete I'm not convinced all of those times he is cited as using the phrase in other films are deliberate. It's a well-known phrase, but not, IMO, notable Lurker ^haver 10:23, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep extremely well known phrases from films. --badlydrawnjeff talk 11:08, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Strong keep I hear this phrase used all the time. It is quite notable in my opinion Konman72 11:10, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep or Merge as one of the most notable phrases of the late 20th century. Substantially more notable than most of the phrases that get kept in AfD. MLA 11:15, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and cleanup per Morgan Wick. — Dark Shikari ^talk/_contribs 15:17, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• weak keep after recent rewrite. I admit I am not deep in american pop culture. Now I can understand that "I'll be back" uttered in Arnold's thick german tone might be a cultural phenomenon, so I changed my vote, because the recent rewrtite provided an objective reason of notability. Still the article is an original research, because it does not provide any secondary sources that discuss the notability of the phrase (the #37 quote nomination is insufficient), but I am not a deletionist. It is just because the previous version of the article really sucked. And as you understand, google search for this phrase is really unhelpful, if you don't know how to narrow down your search. `'mikka (t) 18:31, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment This quote is at no. 37 on AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movie Quotes list. --Ageo020 18:54, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• P.S. I did not nominate the "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn" precisely because it also mentioned the quote nomination. BTW, since we are at that, with all experts in movie qoutes, I'd suggest
  • to work a bit with the "Frankly..." article and
  • To think of a good subcategory for I'll Be Back, Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn and the likes. Now they sit in category:English phrases, which is waaay tooo broad.

• Keep This phrase is indeed notable but the article badly needs a rewrite. --Siva1979^{Talk to me} 19:48, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep article needs some sprucing up, but AfD isn't that place to find that. WilyD 20:06, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
• Merge into The Terminator Yiyun 00:10, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
• Keep as a notable catchphrase used by a famous actor and a famous politician. SliceNYC 20:53, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to article about "the Arnold", The Terminator, or terminate it. :) Dlohcierekim 21:47, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
• Delete or re-direct to The Terminator. Catchphrases should not have their own pages, it's just ridiculous. TJ Spyke 22:59, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
