This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Television. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.
- Adding a new AfD discussion
- Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:
- Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
- You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Television|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.
- There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.
- Removing a closed AfD discussion
- Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.
- Other types of discussions
- You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Television. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.
- Further information
- For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Almost entirely unsourced. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. Wikipedia is not a directory. This is better suited to Fandom and does not belong on Wikipedia. * Pppery * it has begun... 23:26, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Query, if it had the paltry number of refs that List of fictional radio stations had, would that be enough? Abductive (reasoning) 23:52, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- Honestly that article is a decent candidate for a deletion discussion as well. * Pppery * it has begun... 23:54, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

- Part Query & part Keep — What's the difference between the lists of fictional media outlets (TV & radio stations & TV networks) and the lists of real media outlets (TV & radio stations & TV networks)? Both are, as you claim indiscriminate collections of information, as well as directories. Plus, how is the information unsourced when it's fairly easy to find references to the mentioned fictional media outlets in the stated summaries for the various movies/TV shows/books they're featured in? ClarkKentWannabe (talk) 00:53, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- Because such plot summaries do not establish WP:LISTN. * Pppery * it has begun... 00:55, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- So, what about my first query? How are the lists of fictional media outlets any different than the lists of real media outlets? ClarkKentWannabe (talk) 00:59, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- The fact fictional media elements don't have overarching notability. Real world stations have an actual real world impact, but these fictional stations have no indication of notability as a fictional element. It's indiscriminate in its current state because there's no real clear notability established of any kind. I go into this a bit further in my vote down below, but overall Pppery's point is this: plot summary of random fictional aspects does not establish notability. It needs sourcing to get to that point, or needs some valid rationale that this list simply doesn't have. In its current state, this list has nothing proving why it needs to exist and why this subject is actually notable. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 02:33, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

- Keep, nominator suggests that no amount of references will dissuade them from trying to delete lists that readers seems to like, based on a misunderstanding of WP:INDISCRIMINATE. This list is quite discriminating; it lists fictional television stations on shows that have Wikipedia articles. Moreover, the alternative is a bunch of redirects from individual fictional call letters or whatever to their shows, which would be fine except some are the same. So then what? Create little disambig pages for those? Abductive (reasoning) 02:08, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- Readers liking a list is not grounds to keep if it does not meet Wikipedia standards. Notability is not inherited from these fictional stations' original media, and thus it very much is indiscriminate, because this is discussing these stations separately from the parent topic, not in conjunction with a parent topic. Even then, there is no inclusion criteria that determines what makes this grouping notable, and no sourcing nor any rationale proving notability. Bar a few exceptions, most of these probably don't need a DISAMBIG, since I doubt most of these are actually notable aspects discussed at their parent articles from a glance at a lot of these subjects. There's nothing really here justifying this list's existence. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 02:30, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- So what's next? Go after List of fictional espionage organizations because you feel S.P.E.C.T.R.E. and its ilk are indiscriminate? Abductive (reasoning) 03:10, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- Exactly that. That article itself is bloated with fancruft and needs a major prune. I think it can survive refocused as a navigational list with only entries with standalone articles, rather than being deleted, but there isn't enough content to support that kind of list here. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:27, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- You're arguing against the current state of these lists, and about the fact that they are about fictional works, and saying that the solution is deletion. There is no possible end to this but to delete all lists involving fiction on Wikipedia. I hope you can see that. Abductive (reasoning) 05:12, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- Some lists of fictional topics actually have significant coverage in reliable sources that discuss them as a group or set, thus fulfilling the requirements of WP:LISTN. Others are made up of a number of notable examples that link to dedicated articles on them, thus making them valid navigational lists. This particular list meets neither of those requirements. WP:OTHERSTUFF is not a valid argument to make in an AFD, but that is the simple explanation as to why it is absolutely not a case of having to keep all or delete all list articles.

- Delete per nom. I feel the other !Keep votes are failing to understand that this is indiscriminate unless sourcing can be properly demonstrated. Per Pppery, the difference between a list of fictional and real outlets is that real outlets are actually significant to the real world, and have proper articles in a good chunk of cases. The list meets LISTN because there are actually articles on these subjects. In this list, nothing is proving that such a list is notable. There's no notable parent topic, and a brief skim yields very few of these fictional stations, if any at all, having articles. This is very much INDISCRIMINATE unless sourcing can be found proving fictional radio stations are notable, and even if that is the case, the article needs a whole TNT to meet quality standards. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 02:27, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- Delete per nom and Pokelego999 - There are no sources present in the list that would allow this to pass WP:LISTN, nor have I found any in searches. Additionally, it does not serve as a useful navigational list as so few of the entries actually link to valid articles. As stated in the nom, this list is a failure of WP:INDISCRIMINATE.

- "This article is about an Iranian film that was recorded in Iran according to the sources available in the article. If the article is lacking in content, it is likely that the user who created it did not have sufficient information and was unable to provide further edits. As you may have noticed, a 'stub' template has been added at the end of the article, indicating that editors are encouraged to help expand the article by adding more information. According to this procedure, the article needs more time to be completed. However, you have placed a deletion template on this article, which goes against the rules of English Wikipedia." 5.233.174.226 (talk) 16:17, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

- A statement is made that is not logical. You say there are no sources, so what are the sources listed in the references section for? This has been officially announced as a certain type of film and has been screened as a cinematic movie in Iran and registered on IMDb. You shouldn't compare this article, which pertains to Iran, with an article related to the United States, because it was created by an editor who has limited knowledge about Iranian cinema, and this will be corrected over time with the help of other editors. Unfortunately, you made a hasty decision to delete this article, which is not logical and violates Wikipedia's rules. This article is still new and was created just a month ago, and a stub template has been added to allow editors to contribute, with credible sources also cited. 5.233.174.226 (talk) 17:36, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Fails WP:NLIST. Sources are unreliable or do not talk about the programming as a whole. Many of the sources are primary cited to the channel itself. There is currently only eight active programs which can be merged into the main Pogo (TV channel). In fact, those programs don't even appear to be original programming so they originate with another network. As far as the argument that the list serves a purpose, there is already a category for its original programming which serves such purpose, especially since the shows listed here are mainly originating from other networks.

- Redirect to Peyton Place (TV series)#Characters - Since the character is already on the character list and and Redirects are cheap, I suppose this could work as a valid WP:ATD. But given that I can find no sources at all that actually devote any real kind of coverage to the character, and the character apparently only appeared in six episodes of a 514 episode series, I honestly have doubts that the character has even the barest amount of notability to even be listed on the series character list.

I can't see that this has WP:SIGCOV in multiple independent reliable sources or that they meet WP:NACTOR.

Reviewed during New Page Patrol. No evidence of wp:notability under sng or gng. Article is basic resume/cv type material. The references are either his employers, him, or brief mentions.

- Not voting yet, but I did consider redirecting it myself after its failed DYK nomination (I created the article and it was originally much longer). I would say there's more than enough WP:SUSTAINED coverage of him, though I wonder if WP:NPF applies. Pinging @UndercoverClassicist, RoySmith, Vaticidalprophet, Theleekycauldron, AirshipJungleman29, and Freedom4U: for their input.--Launchballer 15:04, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
- At least on the current sources provided, there's a question mark over WP:NOTNEWS for me -- lots of sources, but all ephemeral tabloid stuff rather than any serious interest in the person himself. I suppose there's an argument that the sheer volume of such coverage implies that someone is interested in him, but I'd need convincing at the moment that those interested people include enough sources that would clear WP:RS (and perhaps WP:NINHERITED to boot). At the moment, I don't think I have a vote either way, but that may change as this discussion develops. UndercoverClassicist T·C 15:27, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Article previously deleted for unambiguous promotion, recreated as draft and unilaterally moved to mainspace. Subject fails WP:GNG, WP:NBIO, WP:NJOURNALIST.

Doesn't seem to meet musical notability requirements either. The Billboard review is fine, but it's used for musical notability, then we go onto the TV show sources; you have to pick one sort of notability, you can't stack them. Being almost notable as a DJ and almost notable as a TV personality don't add up to an article here. I'm not fussed if this gets !deleted either. Oaktree b (talk) 18:28, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

The entire content of this page is already written in Peacemaker season 1. Almost every section of "Production" talks about details that involve the entire season and not specifically the first episode of it. Even the "Critical reception" section talks about the first three episode and not of this episode individually. If we don't want to cancel this page, I think that we could easily merge some information (like the Critical reception) into Peacemaker season 1. But I don't think that this first episode is independently notable. Redjedi23 (talk) 13:02, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

- Keep notability is met. Nom appears to miss specific commentary on the introduction of the bald eagle character, and commentary on multiple (3) episodes still addresses the topic directly and in detail, so GNG remains met. This appears to be a perfectly reasonable and policy-compliant episode page, appropriate for the pilot of a series. Jclemens (talk) 00:09, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- The making of Eagly could be put in the season's page since the character appears throughout the entire season, it is not a pilot-specific detail.

That section has even a notice that asks the editor to expand it, so that commentary could even help that page. Redjedi23 (talk) 09:54, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Article about a television show, completely unsourced for the purposes of establishing that it would pass WP:TVSHOW. As at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Stop, Look, & Listen (same creator), this was sandboxed in draftspace for lack of referencing and then almost immediately unsandboxed by the creator again without any effort to address the reasons why it got sandboxed in the first place.

- 1. Deleting a well-established article that has been refined and improved by numerous contributors, and which many users find valuable, undermines the collective effort and the utility it provides.
- 2. Wikipedia's scope has expanded, allowing for more inclusive content. Articles that were deleted a decade ago due to non-notability are now encouraged and considered relevant.
- 3. While source citations were less emphasized when I initially created the article, contributors have since verified and corrected any inaccuracies, ensuring the article's reliability. DavidFarmbrough (talk) 19:48, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Well established articles don't exactly get a free pass from discussions about their quality and issues they may have on the website. They need to be verifiable and notable to continue to exist on the website.
- While true, that is primarily due to new sources being discovered allowing for more revivals on articles where that sourcing did not exist at the time, not due to any laxing of restrictions.
- There are only four citations on the article, and many entries are unsourced and are only a redirect to another topic they're a part of. Even if this is kept, it needs a major overhaul to verify its contents as a whole.

- Comment are there any articles on robotic characters in the various books discussing Doctor Who's science? I recall seeing at least one or two, but searching for them proves difficult given that most searches for "Doctor Who robot" tends to just pull results from the episode Robot (Doctor Who). If nothing else can be found I'd suggest a partial merge to list of List of Doctor Who universe creatures and aliens, as several of these characters (Such as Autons, Yeti, and Quarks) do have associations with several entries currently on the list, with some of the robots that are considered species potentially being included in that list as well (Such as the Roboforms, Sandminer Robots, Mechonoids, for example).

There's no requirement for each of the individual items to be "significant" or independently notable.

Wikipedia is not the TARDIS data core. This article is a nonsense. It is written as though describing a real conflict. Most, if not all, of the references are primary sources/the actual episodes of the show where this war is mentioned, including the BBC (the show's production company), Big Finish Productions (the production company for the audio adaptation), BBC Books (the publisher for book adaptations), and Doctor Who fan sites. From my research, all sources related to this fictional-war originate either those primary sources, or from standard run-of-the-mill coverage to promote an episode, with only passing mention of the fictional-war, and no analysis of it.

- Keep coverage is a bit buried in the depths of promo material, but a brief search yielded some results. Reviews of The Day of the Doctor (The 50th Anniversary special which got a lot more in-depth coverage than most episodes) tend to yield bits (Such as this AV Club source). I found a Gizmodo source discussing the War in its entirety, though its coverage is smattered throughout the article. This book has a whole chapter on the War, while this book seems to discuss it in association with The Doctor's character a fair bit. A brief glance at this book and this book yields promise, as do a few hits for books in regards to Psychology about the Doctor in association with the War, but admittedly these I can't fully access enough to judge. Given the Time War's large role in the narrative of Doctor Who and its effect on the Doctor's character, I'd warrant there's probably more discussing its role within the context of the show, but I only did a brief search, so I'd be happy for other editors to also do searches to see what else I didn't see. Either way, the Time War definitely seems to have coverage, if scattered, that shows its notability, though as the nom said the article definitely needs a rewrite at some point in the future.

[T]he Time War's large role in the narrative of Doctor Who and its effect on the Doctor's character
, yes; but outside of the Doctor Who fictional-universe, I still don't think it passes any of the points of WP:GNG or WP:SIGCOV for it to have a stand-alone article. Svampesky (talk) 02:18, 31 July 2024 (UTC)- You know that's a non sequitur, right? Nothing is notable inside or outside of any fictional universe; they're either notable, or they are not. We don't have to have documentation of time war reenactors in order to keep the article... we just need independent reliable sources that discuss the topic directly and in detail. In point of fact, "real world" manifestations such as toys are often ignored entirely as non-independent (the same people are making money off of them...) when assessing the notability of fictional topics that CAN be so manifested. Jclemens (talk) 03:53, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- Note. One of the books you cited The Scientific Secrets of Doctor Who (ISBN: 9781849909389) is published by BBC Books, which is a subsidiary of the production company of the show. Svampesky (talk) 03:56, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect to either History of the Time Lords#The Time War (sketchy notability itself) or Time Lord (where it is mentioned throughout). I am having difficulty imagining how this article would even look if written with an encyclopedic out-of universe approach (MOS:REALWORLD): Plot doesn't have production design or casting. In short: I believe this topic is unfixable as a standalone article, even with the sources provided above. I wouldn't mind selective merging. – sgeureka t•c 12:18, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- The Time War was a mostly off-screen event, so casting information is irrelevant. Either way, I'd propose an organization of:
- -Developmental information (I know it exists as I've seen bits of it floating around before and I'm aware of a few sources I'd need to double check, but I'd need to do a more thorough search than what I've done above)
- -Basic summary of the event, which could probably condense the information in the article to a readable state.
- -Reception and Analysis of the War's role in the show's narrative.
- I'm confused what you mean by the article being entirely unfixable. It needs a massive rewrite, but it's not undoable with more in-depth rewrites and research. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 19:00, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

- Redirect The Time War is literally synonymous with the plot of Doctor Who. It is what the entire series is about. We already have Doctor Who, History of Doctor Who, History of the Time Lords, Time Lord, and Whoniverse to deal with this information. Several of those also have major gaps in sourcing. Do we really need multiple poorly written articles about the same thing? Please let's start with one article with independent reliable sources. Jontesta (talk) 16:46, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- That isn't true; the Time War is a relatively small part of the overall story of Doctor Who. Toughpigs (talk) 16:51, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'd rule out Doctor Who and History of Doctor Who, as those are primarily out of universe production information. In the case of the Time War, analysis of its role wouldn't be fitting to place in an article like one of those. Whoniverse additionally is more focused on the actual umbrella brand these days. I'm partial to one of the Time Lord articles should it come down to that, but I'd have to take a closer look to see which is better (I'd honestly AfD History of the Time Lords as well- that article is in a very bad state and can easily be condensed to the original Time Lord article) Has one ever considered Magneton?

If, after removing everything that doesn't meet the required standards, the article still doesn't meet WP:GNG/WP:SIGCOV, then we can return to the question of deleting or merging it. I don't think we can discuss merging now as the article is far too long for a simple merge. So I come back, again, to - fix the article first.

This one has some scattered bits on how it affected the Doctor's psychology, this one has some brief bits on its production history, this seems to be promising but I can't scan it entirely. The main problem I'm having with my search is that there are a lot of hits but I can't gauge coverage due to the amount of paywalls blocking me (Especially with Scholar, where there a lot of promising hits on things like war and psychology).

Additionally not to long ago additional time war content was released which may be noteable in its own right. See [20][21][22] Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 03:39, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Zxcvbnm: Would you accept a redirect or a partial merge? The other delete !votes (SpacedFarmer and Svampesky) have commented that they would accept that, in order to find an WP:ATD that looks for WP:CONSENSUS with most of the keep !votes, who have also suggested a merge as acceptable. The amount of content to merge could then be resolved through editing. Shooterwalker (talk) 15:06, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
