Beane's of Boston

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Poorly sourced article about a dropped television pilot that never actually aired. Per WP:TVSHOW, dropped television pilots are not extended an automatic presumption of notability just because it's technically possible to verify that they existed -- rather, they need to pass WP:GNG on reliably sourced evidence of their significance, such as having aired as a one-off television film or special and passing our notability criteria for that kind of programming or being the actual subject of published analysis about noteworthy reasons for their failure. But the only footnote here is a WorldCat directory entry verifying that a single university library has a copy of the second draft of its pilot script, which is a primary source that's entirely irrelevant to establishing notability.

 * Delete Another failed pilot, but if it's burned off even before upfronts week...that's doubly a bad sign that the network had no faith in the show.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 20:50, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
