The Art of Discourse

 * – ( View AfD View log ) •

Nom for lack of notability. Page is concerning a single, minor episode of a television series. There is no information found on this page that can not be found by simply viewing the episode itself. No additional info has been included outside of a plot summary and a single sentence stating the writer and director. Zero outside references are used in this article and the Ext links section contains only the TV.com, IMDb and network site for the episode (though I realize that is not necessarily a bad inclusion.) This article contains no ratings information, no production info - no pop culture relevance at all to warrant the creation of the page. At present, only a small number of individual episodes have spawned their own pages but they mostly meed the criteria for an episode page. As for "The Art of Discourse", what is included in this page (episode title, number, prod code, writer, director, guest star, plot, orig air date, etc...) can currently be found on the episode list for both the series and the season. Therefore, in deletion, no important episode information will be lost - nor is there any need to "merge" into an episode list...it's already there. I'm a huge fan of the show and I'd love to see this page expand. I just don't think that's going to happen. This page ABSOLUTELY merits AfD.

(This is all in addition to an unusually long plot summary that really reads more like a script and stage directions. If this article were to be stripped down to the most essential and pertinent information, the entire page would contain about five sentences, and infobox and three external links.)ocrasaroon (talk) 04:44, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete - "Community" is not yet at the level of cultural importance to merit an article for each and every episode. This article provides no sources establishing notability and consists of little more than a plot-only description of a fictional work.  Delete with no prejudice against recreation when someone is able to establish its notability. - DustFormsWords (talk) 05:56, 29 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete or redirect Consists mostly of plot in violation of WP:NOT, with bits of really trivial real-world information yet no indication of WP:NOTABILITY. – sgeureka t•c 08:32, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
