The result was   merge to Red Dwarf. asks whether this should be merged into an existing section in the target article, or if it should get a new section. There was no real discussion of that point, so the details of the merge are left to editorial discretion of whoever does the merging. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:28, 23 June 2014 (UTC)

No sourcing, no establishment of notability. Tagged for over four years. --  McDoob AU93  20:13, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment: Well... there is actually a fairly big assertion of notability. The DH:SC sketches are pretty much responsible for helping to get Red Dwarf launched, and it's a pretty big, well-known, and influential show. The question here should more be whether or not it should have an article separate from the main Dwarf article. I am finding mentions of the skits in several places, so there is actually notability here and we should more be asking whether or not we should just merge/redirect to Red_Dwarf or if the sources I'm pulling up are enough to justify its own section.

 * Merge to Red Dwarf. All coverage seems to be in relationship to the TV show of which it was a precursor, I doubt if there is really enough to sustain a separate article.TheLongTone (talk) 11:47, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Merge to Red Dwarf. This seems to be a radio precursor of the notable TV series.  If they had not changed the programme name, it would be there already.  Peterkingiron (talk) 11:18, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
