 * Delete - fails general notability guidelines per Sottolacqua's reasoning. Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 18:34, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete One week of a daily TV show is not worth an article, by common sense if nothing else. Nothing happened different from any other week except they maybe gave out bigger prizes. Steve Dufour (talk) 01:43, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Wikipedia is not the World Almanac of Gameshow Trivia. —Carrite, Oct. 5, 2010.
 * Keep or merge to List of Jeopardy! one-off tournaments. I found sources including:
 * "Entertainment Extra". Daily News (Kingsport).  September 29, 1993.  p. 11
 * "Jeopardy! Hero, Pals Celebrate" Miami Herald.  December 5, 1993.
 * "Chabot Instructor Gets an Encore on 'Jeopardy'". San Jose Mercury News.  October 28, 1993.  p. 1B Local
 * "'Jeopardy' Welcomes Chesapeake Native" Virginian-Pilot. November 18, 1993. p. B2

 * If the tournaments aren't individually notable, how would listing them all in one article address the same notability arguments?  Sottolacqua  (talk) 20:42, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I think the coverage in the articles listed above (I've checked the first, and I think I can pull up the other 3 to briefly summarize them) is sufficient for WP:GNG. Putting them in one article may help in organization and length.  RJaguar3 &#124;  u  &#124;  t  00:19, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Mentioning them in a Tournament section in the main article is sufficient. A wholly separate article is unnecessary.  Sottolacqua  (talk) 14:09, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * ADDENDUM I couldn't get "Jeopardy! Hero" or "Chabot" on ProQuest. "Jeopardy! Welcomes" is a brief (42 words) description of Al Lin's (from Chesapeake) appearance in the 9th tournament of champions, where the paper states he would qualify for the tenth anniversary tournament with a win.

It should be merged with ToC, UtoC, and Super Jep!. Teen, College, Celeb, Kids, and Seniors should also be one merged article. Us441(talk)(contribs) 12:31, 12 October 2010 (UTC)  Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 02:35, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.


 * Delete - Article simply does not pass WP:N. It really is not worthy of inclusion.  - Pmedema (talk) 06:24, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - Jeopardy has these often. No indication this one's notable enough that it would help a reader to have a separate entry from the general jeopardy article. Shadowjams (talk) 08:06, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete simply not notable. Game shows often have special episodes now and then, and while they often give ratings a little boost they aren't notable events. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  14:46, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
