The result was   Keep Crystal does not apply as the show is undoubtly going to air. Crystal matters when you are predicting something whose actual occurance may or may not happen. While OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a valid argument for keeping, the existance of 42 other episodes for the series is a strong precident, while the article may not be much now, I have no doubt that it will be expanded... deleting it today to have it created in a week is just a little too much... if it doesn't get expanded after it airs, then we could revisit it.--- Balloonman  NO!

Pause (Boondocks)

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Contested proposed deletion. Article is on a television episode which has not yet been aired, and thus there is no significant coverage in reliable sources. WP:CRYSTAL probably applies. Claritas § 19:33, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Really? In 2 weeks it's going to be aired, at which point someone will create the article again. Is it really worth taking up the space and time of an AFD to make someone write an article twice? Buddy431 (talk) 17:18, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * How do we know that it will gain significant coverage in reliable sources after it is aired ? It may not. In any case, we can't judge the future notability of a television episode which has not yet been aired. Claritas § 20:04, 30 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete Unnotable unaired episode with obviously no significant coverage; if it actually becomes notable after it airs (though unlikely), then it may warrant an article, but Wikipedia does not operate on the likely hood of future notability. -- AnmaFinotera  (talk · contribs) 18:39, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Does not fail WP:CRYSTAL. Per WP:CRYSTAL, "Wikipedia is not a collection of unverifiable speculation. All articles about anticipated events must be verifiable, and the subject matter must be of sufficiently wide interest that it would merit an article if the event had already occurred." This is verifiable through Sony, and it is likely to merit an article, as we have 42 articles in Category:Boondocks (TV series) episodes. Thanks, Starblueheather (talk) 15:20, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
