List of Mediacorp Channel 8 Upcoming Drama Series

It is unnecessary to have such a largely unreferenced table of television programmes. Since there is scarce sourcability, methinks WP:TOOSOON could plausibly be applied. Per policy, such highly unreferenced articles pertains to future shows or such should be deleted. Bonkers The Clown (talk) 03:56, 23 September 2012 (UTC)


 * How about merge it with List of programmes broadcast by MediaCorp Channel 8 (i.e. cut and paste it straight into the mentioned page)? These type of "upcoming" pages change often and need to be updated constantly anyway. Acsian88 (talk) 22:21, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Now that you mention it, that was what I was thinking of. But the thing is, its relying on just one pathetic source, and that's a no when it comes to things about future shows or films; we need the sourcability, at least. For the time being, a delete rather than a merge is more appropriate, unless reliable, third party sources that mention this upcoming programmes are found.

 * Delete Unneeded WP:FORK off the List of article, also WP:TOOSOON and WP:CRYSTAL. I've been dealing with this exact problem with Articles for deletion/List of Disney Channel (UK and Ireland) Upcoming Events, List of programmes broadcast by Disney Channel in the UK & Ireland, and List of programmes broadcast by Nickelodeon (UK & Ireland). These type of articles should simply be lists of programming airing on networks, not act as another place to put WP:ADVERT-violating content ripped directly from press releases from fans who don't understand our guidelines. There should be no room for an article proclaiming a TV film as "Year-end blockbuster for 2012" when it hasn't even aired.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 23:16, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
