I deleted Pants! (When Pants Ruled!) as a copyvio because there was no content after all the copyvio content was removed. --Deathphoenix ʕ 16:36, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Roboparents Gone Wild
WP:FICT Unfinished, never-aired Invader Zim episodes. Non-notable as such. John Nagle 05:15, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

This is a multiple-article Articles for Deletion request for several such articles.

The list:


 * Roboparents Gone Wild
 * Simon Says Doom
 * Nubs of Doom
 * 10 Minutes to Doom
 * The Return of Keef
 * Day of da Spookies
 * It Feeds on Noodles
 * Pants! (When Pants Ruled!)

These are all shows that never aired, and most were never finished. --John Nagle 05:26, 11 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep Its ties to aired show make it notable, much as we have listing for the unaired Buffy pilot and such. Ace of Sevens 05:24, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Buffy the Vampire Slayer has had an impact on popular culture, leading to greater notability for all of the aspects of the subject, even by non-fans. I do not think this show has reached a similiar level of influence. Besides, as these article stand, there is very little context. Surely even a fan of the show could not gain any information from them? -Fsotrain09 05:36, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete all. Reverse crystalballism. Forget that the show that they are associated with is notable. Association with the notabile is not a basis for notability of the thing itself. The res here is the nonairing, and until we see a basis why that is notable these remain forever inchoate black holes of content.--Fuhghettaboutit
 * Strong delete in the absence of verifiable sources. The closest I can find to a source mentioned in these articles is for Pants!...which was tagged as a copyvio of a fansite and subsequently blanked. —C.Fred (talk) 06:04, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, But Merge Each unfinished episode does not deserve it's own page, but if a script is online (and it is from the trusted sorce) then I would consider it notable because it is from a notable TV series. BinaryCleric 08:28, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete All per nom. An utter waste of time, and non-notable. Moreschi 09:27, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, But Merge These pages should be merged into a single page, as some (particularly '10 minutes to doom' and 'the trial' (which doesn't have a page yet)) are of massive importance to the series due to tying up plot ends and giving important character development. As the audio is finished for many of these and have been released in a 'radio drama' format on DVD, they have technically still been released to the public officially and should be considered important and cannonoligical (I likely spelt that wrong) Devilmaycare 10:15, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, But Merge as per above --Richmeister 10:42, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete all per Moreschi. --Coredesat 12:25, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep all, notable television show, and these appear to be notable unfinished eps. --badlydrawnjeff talk 16:49, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * What exactly is a "notable unfinished episode", and what are their signs and symptoms? --Calton | Talk 04:32, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, 'The Trial' revealed lots of important information on Zim's past, how he killed two of his former peoples leaders, and well as the events leading up to his rampage in the first episode. 'Nubs of doom' introduced a new character that was to appear in a lot of episodes (he also appeared in the last episode show, as they finished that before cancelation). The others arn't really notable, but should have a page for the little factiods such as; 'The return of keef' informs us that keef had survived in the 'bestest friend' episodes, when everyone thought he dies at the end of it and 'Day of da Spookies' shows a secondry character becoming a major character from that point onwards ('Invader Skoodge' moves in with Zim to help him). Hope that clears things up. Devilmaycare 06:35, 12 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Strong delete all as per Moreschi Bwithh 21:44, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep part of our Invader Zim coverage. --JJay 21:45, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete There really is no good reason for encumbring Wikipedia with this kind of crap. Merge into existing articles if you must, but this sort of trash does nobody any good. Reyk  YO!  23:44, 11 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Reverse crystal-balling, remaining "forever inchoate black holes of content" -- a phrase I'm going to try to work into conversation sometime this week. --Calton | Talk 04:32, 12 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. -- GWO
 * Delete - I am a MASSIVE fan of the show, but agree that as it's hard to verify these things it does not have a place here. -- DennyCrane Talk 13:57, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. If they were aired or had any claim to notability otherwise, it might be a different story, but these don't belong here. --Kuzaar-T-C- 17:03, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge into List of unfinished Invader Zim episodes. - CNichols 01:29, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Good point. List of unfinished Invader Zim episodes already has plot summaries. --John Nagle 02:14, 14 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep or merge into one big article. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  00:25, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge into the List of unfinished Invader Zim episodes. People should be able to get basic information on them if that's what they're looking for. --User:Sobekneferu 2:41 June 16 2006 (UTC-7)
 * Strong Keep all --alex 00:38, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete Episodes that have never aired are in no way notable. --Musicpvm 03:12, 19 June 2006 (UTC)
