Doctor Who DVD Files

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article is an advert. Despite the fact that there are inadequate reliable sources for it, even if there were, this is not notable for an article of its own. As a maximum it would deserve just a mention on List of Doctor Who DVD and Blu-ray releases. => Spudgfsh  ( Text Me! ) 15:52, 22 October 2013 (UTC) and Gareth Griffith-Jones  &#124; The Welsh Buzzard:  Cardiff born and bred &#124; — 15:59, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of Doctor Who DVD and Blu-ray releases. There's no need to merge the current content, which goes far beyond the level of coverage detail Wikipedia can support for products without independent notability, but there's likewise no reason to resort to actual deletion over redirecting to the proper target in the article with wider context.

Maybe we could find some sources for it and rewrite the sections to make it sound less of an advert? Tommatkencaz (talk) 06:55, 23 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete G11 What a horrendous article, I'm surprised nobody has already deleted this as spam, it even includes the price per issue! Highly inappropriate content (insanely long list of issues, subscription bonuses, non-encyclopedic language -addressing the reader directly as "you"). Complete absence of independent sources, no salvageable content. --Randykitty (talk) 12:46, 23 October 2013 (UTC)
