Bordertown (miniseries)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unsourced article about a non-notable miniseries. Searches find mostly details from unreliable sources such as IMDB and sales of DVDs, but not much in the way of reliable sources to establish notability. -- Whats new?(talk) 22:33, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. Searching is not easy for this one, but eventually I found an entire chapter of an academic book dedicated to this Australian miniseries  along with a few reviews . I added some of this to the article, and I think its notability is clear now. The academic article also has footnotes listing additional commentary on the series.  In addition, this show may have won an AWGIE Award, as stated by Screen Australia, but I would prefer to find a firmer source for that statement before adding it to the text. --Arxiloxos (talk) 02:46, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep. It is usual to keep TV shows that featured notable actors (whether or not they were notable when it was filmed). -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:31, 15 February 2017 (UTC)

 * Strong keep This was a major Australian miniseries of the time. It did win an AWGIE Award for Mini-Series Original in 1996. The source is here.Boneymau (talk) 23:44, 18 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Reply as nominator Other sources put forward have not been particularily strong (DVD retailers, etc) but given it won a recognised award such as this, I would agree notability is there. It would be good if you can add this detail and source to the article . -- Whats new?(talk) 02:53, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
