List of Game of Thrones directors

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The information in this trivial list is already adequately covered in List of Game of Thrones episodes. It was previously created and deleted in the form of List of directors of Game of Thrones. — TAnthonyTalk 14:22, 1 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete - Useless article. BollyJeff  &#124;  talk  14:37, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per nomination and that's a recreation of a deleted article. Drovethrughosts (talk) 14:49, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete - Pointless article, with information already covered elsewhere. Somethingwickedly (talk) 20:00, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
 * OT: can be a category instead? -- Y not? 03:37, 2 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep the work of individual directors has been the subject of multiple independent RS'es. Saying the individual episode articles covers this ignores the fact that multiple directors have been responsible for multiple episodes, creating an overlap that cannot be adequately covered in either the directors' articles or the episodes' articles.  The fact that this list is currently trivial is neither contested nor sufficient reason for deletion. Jclemens (talk) 06:22, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
 * : A better set of search parameters. Jclemens (talk) 06:23, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Per my nom, List of Game of Thrones episodes notes every episode and every director (plus other info), making this list completely redundant and inferior, and unnecessary.— TAnthonyTalk 17:41, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, you said that. But that list covers things from an episode-centric viewpoint, rather than a director-centric viewpoint.  Enough RS'es are talking about the individual directors that there's room for both views of the material. Jclemens (talk) 00:20, 6 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep Other shows like The Simpsons, Doctor Who and Family Guy and so on have lists like this one. I think keep. But it could be improved. AffeL (talk) 01:55, 7 July 2016

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep per Category:Lists of directors by television series. Delete this and you must delete the rest. —  Wylie pedia  12:34, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep Passes WP:LISTN. See Variety, for example. Andrew D. (talk) 10:25, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
