Does each episode need an article? (Just curious, I will watch). Stormbay (talk) 02:59, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not, but you could say that about a lot of other TV show articles. How many other cable TV shows are getting over 2 million viewers a week? — WylieCoyote (talk) 19:31, 11 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough! although the only question that needs to be asked is whether each of these articles are notable. It goes without saying that most of those other TV show episodes could have been combined (probably for the better of Wikipedia). I was just curious.

I had a similar discussion here. I won't do anymore episode articles at all, period. I can name a few non-notable Lost episodes, yet they ALL have articles for them. What's the difference in an article being done about a highly-viewed episode with a "wah-wah" story (Lost) and those made for Hell on Wheels? I've been a Wiki contributor for only 10 months. Most of my contributions have been episode articles, regardless of "notability". Except for this and the linked summary discussion, I've not had any complaints (from others) about doing them. What defines "notability" for TV episodes anyway??? Every critic in the world writing about the episode??? Farewell to Wikipedia. Thanks for taking my weekly joy away. — WylieCoyote (talk) 01:46, 12 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that this was not a complaint. (I really was "just curious"). Why not continue these episodic articles. If you feel that they are useful/informative, don't stop. Happy editing! Stormbay (talk) 22:06, 12 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
