The result was delete. WP:V is not negotiable. And it's not been rebutted that much of this content is not verifiable.  Sandstein  19:25, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

List of El Chavo del Ocho episodes

Mostly all the information in the episode list are assumptions, there are no reliable sources to verify such facts. The only reliable page that has information about the episodes is this, and that page does not show all the information that appears here on Wikipedia.

 * Keep - episode lists are an important part of TV series articles. The format of that article is horrendous, but that is because it's not using Episode table and Episode list. --Gonnym (talk) 10:52, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Even if the list of episodes could be saved, how can we know on which day the episodes were released and what would be the lost episodes? According to this page, some episodes were lost during the 1985 earthquake in Mexico and with them enough information about it. And this information is only found in forums, YouTube videos and untrusted pages.  Bradford     (Talk)  14:05, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Regarding what is lost vs not lost, that is not a core aspect of an episode list so it if we don't have info, just don't add it. Regarding the dates, while I'm sure somewhere this information is found, I'd rather have sub-optimal sources like or even  that have the air date information, then not have them at all. --Gonnym (talk) 16:46, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Ok, so we only have a broadcast date for some seasons and episodes, but not for the rest? However, more than that, there is too much information that is not backed by reliable sources. IMDb is not a really reliable source. IMDb and MSN claim that the series had 9 seasons, but in vecindadch.com only 7 seasons appear plus some lost episodes, so it is impossible to know in which order the episodes go or which were the first to air. However, in Spanish Wikipedia and the others a total of 8 seasons appears, and in Spanish Wikipedia they erased the list of episodes for several obvious reasons.

 * Delete Episode lists are normally fine, but this one is so over-detailed with fancruft, not to mention the contradictory and unreliably sourced information about the lost episodes. If there is that much content that is so utterly unverifiable, then it shouldn't be included. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 20:52, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
