Rockapella Voiceovers on Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Showcruft, plain and simple. There's really nothing even worth merging into the show's article; I don't think noting that the band would sing "National Geographic World!" after the host of the program mentioned them is something within the scope of this encyclopedia.

 * Delete. First, this level of detail is rather off the deep end when it comes to trivia. (Though it would be great content if somebody starts Where in the Wiki is Carmen Sandiego somewhere else.) Second, there are no sources cited at all for the information—so we don't know if somebody pulled out the aircheck tapes to get the information or if they did it all from memory. So, the article fails verifiability, and this level of detail is not notable. Leave it is a paragraph or two about Rockapella in their article and the TV show's article. —C.Fred (talk) 04:21, 7 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete. It's just a glorified list of trivia, most of which is not worth moving into the main article anyway.Klytos 04:25, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete just trivia. Oysterguitarist 05:15, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - it's trivia. -Haemo 05:47, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Strong Merge (probably not a !vote, but strong advice to the author). Yes, the shouts from Rockapella were part of what made Carmen Sandiego a classic on PBS...however, like the exchanges betwenn Greg Lee and Lynne Thigpen, this one just doesn't merit an article all its own, and needs to go back be part of the band or show article.
