- That website has yet to be updated. DARTHBOTTO talk•cont 16:34, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
- Why are you using early marketing as a reason to name a film? If we're going down that route, why don't we call Scream 4 "Scre4m"? Or The Fifth Estate "The 5ith Estate"? Or, hell, Transformers: Age of Extinction "Trans4mers"? I mean, you do realize this is just creative marketing, right? The Shadow-Fighter (talk) 01:45, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
- I concur. It goes against WP:TITLETM, which says, "Article titles follow standard English text formatting in the case of trademarks, unless the trademarked spelling is demonstrably the most common usage in sources independent of the owner of the trademark." It is too early to know if Tak3n is going to be commonly used. MOS:TMRULES also says, "Avoid using special characters that are not pronounced, are included purely for decoration, or simply substitute for English words... or for normal punctuation," mentioning to avoid Se7en and to use Seven instead. That should happen here too. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 02:21, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
- I've reverted the move. I suggest starting a discussion via WP:RM to see where the article should be, though I find the trademark-related guidelines pretty clear. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 02:31, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
- Because most sources have since referred to it as "Tak3n", with hardly at all calling it "Taken 3" anymore, unlike the case of Scream 4. I suppose Erik is correct that it's too early to tell if the common usage will stick, but you're incorrect, The Shadow-Fighter, for asserting that sources are not predominantly picking up on this "creative marketing".

Final installment?
[edit]"the third and final installment in the Taken film series". I believe the part about the final installment should be taken out of that sentence. They also said that about Taken 2.
The reality of it is: If it makes $200+ million it is guaranteed a sequel.94.189.38.110 (talk) 08:21, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
- When did anyone say that Taken 2 was going to be the final installment? And furthermore, what makes you think they're going to make a fourth film if it exceeds $200 million? You have to back this up. The Shadow-Fighter (talk) 18:49, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
- That's easy. http://www.mtv.com/news/1694880/taken-2-liam-neeson/ --94.189.38.110 (talk) 14:16, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
- Furthermore. The 200+ million is just an example, which meant the following: If the third earns enough money, the fourth one is guaranteed. Basic Hollywood logic. --94.189.38.110 (talk) 14:20, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
