Deal or No Deal (UK game show) records

 * — (View AfD)

As I looked through other game show articles: I see NO other records pages. Deal or No Deal shouldn't be the first to start this trend. As I stated in the other Deal or No Deal AFDs a while ago: make a gameshow Wiki and put this information there. It certainly shouldn't be here. Encyclopedia: not a guide to game show records.

 * Merge to Deal or No Deal (UK game show). I disagree 100% with RobJ, but I don't believe this article can stand on its own. Just H 20:13, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, clean up - the existing show page is already 55K, making merge difficult. All facts are verifiable against original transmissions. Lack of precedent is no ground to delete; I would expect any reputable encyclopaedia to treat all television broadcasts according to their notability and no other criterion.

 * Delete. There's FAR too much trivia and the like in the main article already. I can't see anything in this article worth merging that isn't there already. - fchd 11:56, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
 * keep. The main DOND article is already long as it is. The records are a handy source of information SS4 17:01, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, but the proper place for trivia like this is on a fan site. Not a general purpose encyclopedia. - fchd 17:26, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
 * The article is not original research or a copyright violation, it is written from a neutral point of view. It is not a directory or an indiscriminate selection of information, for editors select the categories they deem notable. "Trivia" is the view of other contributors to this discussion, but I genuinely do not see how this article violates any clause of WP:NOT, or any other clause of WP:DELETE Eludium-q36 18:20, 11 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Merge to the show's page, after slimming down the info. All of the facts may be verifiable, but they're not all encyclopedic. Inner Earth 18:25, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep is this like the deal or no deal massacre? I think we should keep at least SOME of the deal or no deal articles!
