Talk:Initiation (Kung Fu: The Legend Continues)

It's put up or shut up time
All righty then, all you people who earnestly insisted that there are reliable sources that support the independent notability of this episode. You utterly failed to provide such sources in the course of the AFD but managed to pile on enough !votes to snooker an admin into closing it as keep. So let's see the sources.

 * My comment about sources from the AFD: So, I have access via my local library to the full text of the following articles:
 * Significant coverage of series, characters, actors, etc; no significant coverage of pilot episode.
 * excellent coverage of Carradine and the Caine character, but the extent of coverage of the episode are these sentences: "The two-hour pilot, airing at 8 p.m. Wednesday on Channel 44, introduces Caradine in Toronto's modern-day Chinatown, where the citizens ask him to help fight a mysterious gangster. Also working on the case is Caine's long-lost son Peter (played by Chris Potter), a plainclothes detective. The two are reunited and agree to solve the mystery together."
 * No coverage of episode other than air date.
 * Discusses the return of the franchise, Carradine, etc. Extent of episode coverage: "In the pilot Peter tries to pass himself off as a hitman to infiltrate a nest of criminals. Predictably the bad guys find him out. Still there are a few interesting twists along the way."
 * The relevance of the results falls of rapidly after these 4 articles. The conclusion I draw is that news articles of the era covered the series, the significance of the return of the franchise, Carradine's role, and the principal characters, but did not provide substantial coverage of the pilot episode itself. Thus the verifiable material provided by these sources is better suited for the main article.
 * In light of this I believe this article should be merged with and redirected to Kung Fu: The Legend Continues Jfire (talk) 08:20, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
