The result was delete. The arguments to keep are unconvincing since they assert that there are sources, but don't present them. In particular, providing a link to a google search is not a useful argument to make at AfD. Those sources that have been presented were shown to not be WP:RS -- RoySmith (talk) 02:04, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

Survivor: Edge of Extinction

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article uses spoiler site that doesn't disclose its sources, unlike other third party sites that report on Survivor, like Entertainment Weekly or Hollywood Reporter. Site is also not affiliated with either CBS (company that owns the US version of Survivor) nor Survivor production. In addition, the article used even states that this season is rumored.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep The article lists its sources, which are indeed affiliated with CBS, the producers of the show. The season has been confirmed, even if it was only a rumor when the article was written, which was June 2018. Time has passed since the season was merely a rumor, and it is a confirmation now. Keep the article, but the sources should probably be updated. If not now, then when more details are provided besides the ones known (which are in the article).

 * Yes the season was announced to have been renewed for up to Season 38, but CBS has not yet revealed anything about season 38 at all. Sinjoh2015 (talk) 12:16, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:TOOSOON. The article can be recreated closer to the show's airdate. I would not be opposed to draftify this though. Aoba47 (talk) 06:20, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep per wide array of sources. The person that started this discussion is looking at only one source, but plug survivor 38 into any search engine and you'll find 5-6 independent links discussing next season.  TheEditster (talk) 10:18, 13 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Actually, it's about 3, Inside Survivor, which has two articles, one on the rumored season and one on the rumored cast, Reality Blurred (has one article), and Surviving Tribal (which has 2), which the latter two use Inside Survivor as their source. Inside Survivor does not inform the reader where its information is coming from, so for all we know, the information they got is false, since again, the season and cast is rumored. How is a rumor a reliable source? I also want to bring up that none of the other season's used Inside Survivor as a source at all for when their page was created.

 * Delete per WP:RS. Inside Survivor is self-published, which precludes it from being a reliable source. – Katanin (talk) 15:39, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
