Hooves and Harlots (Xena episode)

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Fails WP:EPISODE and WP:FICT. Completely unnotable episode article. Per the injunction, article can not be physically deleted yet, however it can be AfDed and marked to be deleted after the injunction. Collectonian (talk) 06:51, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep, seems that reliable sources do at least mention the episode; Google Scholar search and Google book search. This is more sourcing than most TV episodes ever get. Blast Ulna (talk) 13:12, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Redirect - trivial coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject. Addhoc (talk) 13:20, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * How do you know it's trivial? The way Google sets up the searches, you can't see most of the text. Blast Ulna (talk) 13:26, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I've explained on the talk page, however, in essence, the search results provide 3 trivial mentions. Addhoc (talk) 13:57, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * The Feminist Media Studies source is embargoed. Google can't read it. Blast Ulna (talk) 14:00, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's true, however the article explores how Xena has been depicted on a cross. In this episode, she wasn't placed on a cross, so I guess the coverage isn't very in depth. Addhoc (talk) 18:04, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Then let's give this episode the benefit of the doubt. For all we know, there are other sources out there that aren't as easily found. There are many episode articles on Wikipedia that are unambiguously non-notable. Blast Ulna (talk) 14:14, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

comment isn't there an Arbitration on at the moment which until it's completed, means that we're not allowed to delete episodes of TV progs? Or am I getting it wrong?  The special, the random, the lovely Merkinsmum  20:48, 7 March 2008 (UTC)


 * As mentioned in my nom, per the injunction, the deletion can't happen, but the injunction does not block AfD nominations or normal discussions. If the result is delete, then when the injunction is lifted (which should be soon since voting appears to be done), then it can be deleted. Collectonian (talk) 21:01, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * ah ok I didn't spot that, I put a tag at the top so everyone knows.:)  The special, the random, the lovely Merkinsmum  22:11, 7 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep The topic is notable Colonel Warden (talk) 09:46, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * On the talk page, I've listed those sources and shown they are trivial mentions. Addhoc (talk) 13:21, 10 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep - violating Arbitration decisions with nominations suggests a severe lack of good judgement on the part of the nominator; probably a good idea to remove all their deletion nominations and keep them from nominating any more for a suitable period of time - David Gerard (talk) 13:32, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I am not violating the ArbCom injunction, and your remarks are inappropriate. The injunction does NOT block AfDs. Collectonian (talk) 18:49, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
 * David, if you look at the article history, it was created after the injunction, and so isn't covered. Addhoc (talk) 13:11, 10 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep and improve. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 19:33, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
