List of television shows set in Las Vegas

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

This is what categories are for, Category:Television shows set in Nevada already covers this subject adequately. A sub-caegory can be created if necessary, though it doesn't appear to be needed. Saikokira 03:25, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - better done with a category. A list like this is too indiscriminate. - Richard Cavell 03:49, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge with Las Vegas. This list isn't that long. 23skidoo 03:57, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Too crufty to merge into Las Vegas. FiggyBee 09:13, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep It's a useful reference, and lists should be kept out of major articles as they spoil the presentation and break up the flow of the text. Hawkestone
 * Delete per nom. Deor 12:55, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. Is the proposal of this nomination to remove every entry from Category:Lists of TV series by city setting?  Also the Las Vegas, Nevada article is already too long.  So while this list might be fairly short, it would expand an article that is likely too long already and still needs expansion in other areas that are also notable and not currently covered. Lists and categories serve different purposes and are not exclusive.  Vegaswikian 19:48, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep. This is what categories are for?  A list serves equally well, so ... I don't see how that's an argument to delete.  No reason has been presented as to why this list is inherently inferior in its ability to manage the relevant information than the category.  In fact, this list provides additional information that is not present in the article.  Also, I oppose merging this list into Las Vegas, as it would unnecessary clutter the latter article. -- Black Falcon 04:00, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. Per the changes by Vegaswikian, each entry in the list now contains 3-4 columns of information that cannot be possibly reflected in a category. -- Black Falcon 17:58, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Per Vegaswikian, I've touched up the article a bit and added another entry. Caknuck 04:56, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per improvements to list since start of this AFD. I think categories are more useful for this type of topic, but this is more than just a list of titles now. Croxley 05:47, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep This list doesn't seem to be merely a list, but includes information that would be lost in a category. I'd also point out that there are shows set in Nevada that aren't set in Vegas (Bonanza, above all, and the handful of shows set in Tahoe). -- Charlene 07:50, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep It belongs in Category:Lists of TV series by city setting along with the other lists. TonyTheTiger (talk/cont/bio) 21:31, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per reasons given by Black Falcon and TonyTheTiger. Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 04:27, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - Better off as a category than article.--Bryson 14:36, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and propose instead deletion of Category:Lists of TV series by city setting. --FateClub 20:33, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
