2013 and beyond in television

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Another contribution from, this time involving this crystal ball article about "future events" in television starting in 2013, when we're not even through the first quarter of 2012. Assuming that the editor used 2013 and beyond in film as a template, but television is a much more shaky business than film (we're not even through the pilot season for 2012-13 yet, whereas film studios can plan years out), and we have the majority of the article's content already in 2012 in American television; also, what makes 2013 more special than 2014, 2015, etc. A similar redirect discussion is up for more crystal balling out to 2020.

 * Keep, what about 2013 and beyond in film, and this article has good sources from TV by the Numbers, The Huffington Post, The Hollywood Reporter and more, there is about 30 good sources in the article. -- Tate Brandley Stockwell 01:37, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment All the sources are also in the 2012 in American television article already. I've chosen to nominate this on predicting future events, not the use of sources duplicated in this article.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 05:35, 6 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete per WP:CRYSTAL - mostly synthesis at this point. MikeWazowski (talk) 21:02, 5 March 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep 2013 will happen and this article has lots of reliable sources indicating these shows will continue. The article needs to included non-US TV shows though.  Lugnuts  (talk) 08:13, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete Excluding the information (and refs) duplicated from 2011–12 United States network television schedule or 2012 in American television, and removing the obvious (e.g. Academy Awards and Kennedy Center Honors will occur every year barring a major catastrophe), there is not much left to the article. WP:CRYSTAL and WP:SYNTH. What articles will come next? 2014 and beyond, then 2015 and beyond? How much will this duplicate unnecessarily? The current year in TV has enough instability. There is no reason to crystal ball out to 2020. --Logical Fuzz (talk) 10:12, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete as above. The bulk of the article is duplication, and what's left is mostly obvious far-off WP:CRYSTAL material--yeah, there will probably be an Academy Awards show in 2020, but that's not encyclopedia material in 2012. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  23:50, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
