The result was delete. This could be a speedy deletion criterion G5: the article was created by a sockpuppet of a editor evading blocks on at least two earlier accounts, but I prefer to call it a WP:SNOW deletion. JBW (talk) 16:55, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

List of channel numbers for PBS

Wikipedia isn't a guide. And it certainly isn't a TV guide. This is utterly unencyclopedic. CUPIDICAE💕 22:21, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Speedy redirect/delete to existing article List of PBS member stations., there's a reason this was moved to a Draft: it's obviously a draft! One incomplete table is not an article! And you failed to adequately check if this content already existed. Reywas92Talk 22:37, 5 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Speedy delete and redirect to List of PBS member stations per A10. While incomplete is not grounds for speedy deletion, nor is this unencyclopedic per se, it is effectively a recreation of List of PBS member stations. --TeaDrinker (talk) 22:42, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete, no redirect. This isn't what Wikipedia is for, and there are so many definitions of 'channel number' to the layman (it is cable, satellite, on broadcast, the Internet?) that a redirect to the List of would only further confusion.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 23:54, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. Also concerned that it could meet G5 of the criteria for speedy deletion - Sockpuppet investigations/Logo08. The Grand Delusion (Send a message) 00:01, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete after 7 days discussion, unless the G5 is in effect. Why are we in such a hurry to delete stuff speedily?  Does Speedy Delete mean WP:IDONTLIKEIT?  Robert McClenon (talk) 00:24, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment This issue is this is likely a sock who is bent on creating chaos and has vandalized several PBS, PBS-adjacent, and PBS member station articles. Also...the actual channel numbers aren't even placed in the article, so it doesn't even fulfill its proposed article focus.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 00:51, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete per...everything, but I don't think this constitutes a G5. It's a little borderline and I can see good arguments, but G5 is pretty overused for things that aren't directly aspects of the blocked/banned user's abuse. Vaticidalprophet (talk) 06:25, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
 *  Delete - list of lesser imortantance: WP:NOT, WP:NOTTVGUIDE, WP:NOTDIRECTORY; also, as suggested above may be deliberate disruption. Eagleash (talk) 08:10, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - WP:NOTTVGUIDE; I would also be opposed to a redirect Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 09:25, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete As per all above, doesn't meet the notability criteria. Pilean (talk) 16:14, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
