Aardman Classics

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

The subject of this article is a non-notable and long out-of-print DVD, and most of the films featured on it do not have entries of their own because they are so obscure and it doesn't look like anybody will ever come along and create them because of this fact. In addition, the article was created by now indefinitely-blocked User:I Hate That Small Claymation Sheep, who was exposed as a sock puppet of banned User:I Hate That Fat Claymation Sheep in violation of his ban two months ago.

 * Oppose deletion. There is nothing non-notable about this, and in fact I'm watching it tonight with friends, and that's why I chanced upon this article. This Request for Deletion is just frivolous. The work is by an Oscar-winning animator. Do not delete. Possibly merge with Aardman Animations. -- Evertype·✆ 22:25, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
 * The work is not just by one Oscar-winning animator, it is by at least ten of them - but like the films, most of them do not have entries of their own on this encyclopedia. However, if there is no good reason to delete this article (even if it was created by a banned user in violation of his ban), I would support a merge with the main Aardman Animations article.

 * This AfD nomination was incomplete (missing step 3). It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 15:37, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect/Merge to Aardman Animations, expand "selected" list in that article to complete, use asterisk to indicate which productions are not included in this DVD. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 19:12, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete as far too obscure to warrant a redirect; most of the content isn't notable. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 19:33, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge/redirect to Aardman Animations. Fits into the history of the company. Can be easily identified within listings. andyminicooper (talk) 19:58, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
