straight-forward, single qualifier records such as "Highest grossing R-rated film", so if that is what you think is all that counts as noteworthy then you should just nominate the article for deletion, because that is not the scope of this page. This page is mostly for indicating R-rated and February records in both standard and IMAX formats and across the world, as those two aspects were significant with this film's success. No R-rated film had ever made anywhere near this much money before, and these sorts of numbers just didn't happen in February, so the fact that they did is very noteworthy and that is what this list is basically about. Anything that does not apply to that, like I said before, was added for completeness since a list like this should not be too overly specific. -

discussion. A large number of the entries are non-notable trivia or "pseudo-records", and it's questionable if the rest is enough material to warrant a separate article. I'd suggest removing everything that needs more than two qualifiers (i.e. country/territory, rating, single day/weekend/etc.,
1021: 792: 582: 70: 1088:– As noted in the previous discussions, most of the entries require several qualifiers to narrow the field enough to give this film the "record". One gets the impression that many of the combinations of qualifiers are post-hoc constructions designed to make 667:
month, franchise, format, 2D/3D, etc. – so "highest-grossing film worldwide" would be 0 qualifiers, and "Highest IMAX 2D opening weekend gross for an R-rated X-Men film in February in North America" would be 7 qualifiers) and then considering whether an

I would say that this article should be summarized and moved into the main Deadpool article. This is just a list of trivia and shouldn't have it's own page.
