List of Dr. Floyd episodes

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Procedural nom as de-proded in June 2007. I realise I should have not requested prod again November 2007 so this is now brought forward to Afd for discussion. Article has no WP:RS reliable sources to establish WP:V verifiability. Although a podcast and not a television show, WP:EPISODE should be considered as it handles "List of X episodes" guidelines as it seems this list is based on. Breno talk 06:27, 15 January 2008 (UTC) 
 * Comment Original prod reasons were here WikiProject Podcasting and WP:NOT not a program guide, though verifiability policy should take priority. --Breno talk 06:37, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge to main article. What isn't verifiable about this?  The show's website has some of the information, including many of the titles and episode numbers.  Amazon list discs available with the first two seasons, including show numbers.  I guess dates aren't available, but I think most of this is OK. Torc2 (talk) 10:02, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,


 * Delete as it currently stands, because the article doesn't tell me why the episodes are notable. As the nom says, I also think that WP:EPISODE applies, so also delete for a lack of other information.  --lifebaka (Talk - Contribs) 00:40, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment. I have to respond to Lifebaka's comments above. It is not the place of episode list articles to explain why an episode is "notable". In fact, such lists are encouraged because individual episode articles are considered, on the whole, to be insufficient in many cases. So lists are preferred. I do not feel that's a valid criteria for deletion. However I cannot support or oppose deletion at this time because I don't know what the current rule is regarding radio episodes. In theory they're no different that TV episodes -- especially with regards to old-time radio, pre-TV. I need to check before I cast my opinion. 23skidoo (talk) 05:45, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
 * WP:EPISODE doesn't apply, really, now that I look at it again. A lack of outside information is concerning, but no longer enough for me to !vote to delete.  Neutral.  --lifebaka (Talk - Contribs) 20:49, 23 January 2008 (UTC)


 * 'Weak keep Individual articles might have to explain why they are notable unless the series it self is truly very notable. a list does not. if the series itself is notable, a list of episodes is appropriate, and whether or not to merge to the main article is an editorial question to be decided separately. DGG (talk) 18:24, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep per DGG. A list of episodes from a notable (and apparently award-winning) show is completely reasonable and what we want (rather than one article per episode).  Hobit (talk) 01:24, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
