Combination Lock (game show)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unsourced by any non-dead, independent sources. Even its own "Official website" links falls back to a homepage with no mention. Fails WP:CRYSTAL as not yet broadcast, nor seeming to be credibly announced. It also appears to be a 1 episode pilot, thus even more dubious. Andy Dingley (talk) 00:56, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete Painful writing just ringing all the alarm bells and the usual "fun with MS Paint" Nick hoaxers pass by all the time (and they can't even get basic writing or years right in those figures either!). Otherwise, using the Nick press site to 'source' without anything to link from, Nick isn't doing 'regular kid' game shows at this point and anyone doing a show in standard definition in 2015 would be laughed out of the room (we're well into the all-HD era now). Third creation, so it may be time to add a dash of salt to this. Not to mention some of the personnel like Herb Scannell? Kind of not in the position to spare time on a game show, what with other jobs and non-competes and those kind of things.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 06:49, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm not going to advocate deletion of anything on fixable quality grounds, but yes, this is pretty painful to read. Andy Dingley (talk) 10:15, 5 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Delete and salt. This show existed only in the form of an unsold pilot episode. It doesn't have independent coverage, and it doesn't meet inclusion criteria. This iteration of the article appears (to the extent that the prose is comprehensible at all) to gussy it up as if it had been picked up and was going to air in 2015. It didn't. It isn't. Let's put a stop to this. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 13:44, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
