The result was   delete. I don't support taking it to AfC--there is very little likelihood of ever showing it to be notable  DGG ( talk ) 23:17, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

Geeks versus Nerds

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Unnotable local event and podcast. No Reliable Third Party Source exists, merely personal sites and podcast listings. Fails WP:Notability (events). PROD removed without explanation by anonymous editor. Rorshacma (talk) 18:48, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. I did a search and other than umpteen repeats of one lone news article on various different news sites, there's nothing out there to show that this series has any notability per Wikipedia guidelines. (And even though that news article was repeated on different sites, it doesn't show that the show or Dorfman has had enough coverage to show notability.) I can see where it's popular, but notability does not always mean notability per Wikipedia standards. It just makes it more likely that sources will have been . I agree with Rorshacma in that most of the sources out there are unfortunately not ones that would count as reliable sources that show notability, being predominantly blogs and primary sources.I'm not adverse to the idea of the original editor userfying it and adding to it as sources become available, though.

 * Do not delete As noted in the talk page, this article is being written right now, including specifically why it is notable. I apologize that I deleted the delete tag before logging in.  Please defer deletion until the full article is posted. Chamberlain2007 (talk)
 * Delete, non-notable. I can only find one news article (and several re-packagings of the same article) on this show.  No amount of editing on the article page will change that.   (Chamberlain2007, if there are additional reputable sources establishing notability, you need to provide a sampling of them here.) — Steven G. Johnson (talk) 20:46, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
