Doctor Poo (radio series)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A feature on a radio show is not notable enough for its own article, in this case and in my opinion. At best, we have material that could possibly be merged into the presenter's article, but certainly not notable to stand on its own. Striker force Talk 17:16, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. Meets WP:GNG. It's hard to provide too many sources immediately as magazines like Ram & Juke are not yet available online. The Sydney Morning Herald link is fantastic and this interview in Roadrunner is good. Both are indicative of other offline sources. There are quite a few articles in the SMH archives.

 * We don't have any requirement that our sources be online. If you or somebody else are able to dig into print copies of those other sources, then bring 'em on. We provide convenience URLs to web copies of the source if such exist, but that's not a core requirement of a usable reference — we are allowed to do no-url citations to unwebbed book or newspaper or magazine content.

 * Keep Sufficient WP:NEXIST it seems to support GNG. Reliant on hardcopy material - perhaps limited WP:BEFORE.  Aoziwe (talk) 12:32, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete based only on the current sourcing of the article and internet searches for WP:BEFORE. I'm not disputing WP:NEXIST in offline sources, such as here: but I haven't found enough to convince myself it passes WP:GNG even with offline sources.

 * Please keep. As member of the Dr Poo fan club (I still have the badge) I would value keeping the article, as very little now remains of the show unfortunately.
 * Unfortunately, that's not a valid rationale per Wikipedia guidelines. Do you have anything based in policy to support your !vote, please? Striker force Talk 14:35, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
 * It's not our job to help create the media presence of a thing that "very little now remains of", by waiving our reliable source requirements so that people can publish their own original research and possibly faulty memories. If you want to make a fansite for it, then by all means get a Wix. But if "very little remains of it" in reliable sources, then we're not the place to rebuild its public profile.
