- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was delete. Reviewing the argument, the sources in the article, and the level of support for each side (running at 4-2 for deletion), I have found that the deletion side have made a stronger argument, that the sources provided do not provide much coverage of "Bum Reviews with Chester A. Bum" (but rather the parent website), and that the side supporting deletion has considerably more support. Regarding Ryanasaurus0077's argument comparing this to YouTube, this closer remarks that YouTube have completely different inclusion criteria than Wikipedia.

crufty linkfarm, no list item is notable. lacks significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. Duffbeerforme (talk) 11:19, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. I'd go so far as to question the notability of That Guy with the Glasses in the first place (of which this is a subpart). D. J. Cartwright (talk) 14:56, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The series is referenced, if not directly named, by notable sources. If the episode links are deemed a problem, they can be removed without deleting the whole list. - AdamBMorgan (talk) 12:50, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Independent references give only trival comment on the mere existence of Bum Reviews. No independent reference given has reported on any detail of Bum Reviews let alone any individual episode. Look at the referencea provided, where is the coverage of Bum reviews? A search has failed to find significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Duffbeerforme (talk) 16:39, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- It has only been referred to as "other shows" but, as one of only two significant other shows, that is still a reference albeit an indirect reference. My vote stands, for the moment at least. - AdamBMorgan (talk) 18:34, 12 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- I say Keep. If this is deleted just for not being notable, it's the same as YouTube deleting the Nostalgia Critic's reviews just because the big studios didn't find Mr. Walker's 5 Second Movies to be the least bit funny and those reviews happened to be on the same channel with the 5 Second Movies.

- Delete - I agree with the first poster. Andy120290 (talk) 01:22, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - If the notability of That Guy with the Glasses is a factor in this, I'd like to point out that it has coverage in multiple notable and reliable sources. (I admit that I'm not sure if the first poster is question here is the original nominator or the first response.) - AdamBMorgan (talk) 13:13, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- My turn to comment - I think the nominator is just PO'd because one more user (me) voted Keep than Delete, and so he asked that it be relisted "so consensus may be reached". I think he really hates That Guy with the Glasses tons. And Duffbeerforme, D.J. Cartwright, and Andy120290, if you're reading this, Leave That Guy Alone! --Ryanasaurus0077 (talk) 20:17, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:ADHOM. No one asked for relisting. Each relister saw the not enogh support yet for deleteion and lack of good reasons to keep, so relisted. This is not a vote, your non-vote nothing more than WP:ILIKEIT with a straw man at it's centre so not much weight is applied to it. ps, what does Britney have to do with That Guy?, pps for AdamBMorgan and maybe D.J. Cartwright, any question of the notability of That Guy with the Glasses is not for this afd to decide, If that question needs to be asked it should be done elsewhere (imo notable so I'm not going to ask that question elsewhere).

- Comment - I never suggested that That Guy with the Glasses should be deleted, but I do support the proposal to delete List of Bum Reviews with Chester A. Bum episodes. Andy120290 (talk) 19:58, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. This is a content fork of an article on a website. Absolutely inappropriate for an encyclopedia. Abductive (reasoning) 01:20, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - It isn't a content fork, it's an article spinout; it would make the main article about the website too big to include it there. No comment on the appropriateness either way. - AdamBMorgan (talk) 13:06, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
