The Asteroids of Shimballil

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Completely unsourced article about the pilot episode of a television series that never happened. As always, unsold pilots are not automatically entitled to have Wikipedia articles just because they existed -- the notability test per WP:TVSHOW requires reliable sources independent of the show itself to cover it in a way that establishes its significance, but nothing like that has been shown here even though the article has existed for 15 years. Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt it from having to have been the subject of real coverage in real media. Bearcat (talk) 15:05, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete - A proposed TV pilot that never even moved past the concept art phase. The article is completely devoid of sources, and searching does not bring up any kind of coverage on this never-made show.  It could possibly be used as a Redirect to Valérian and Laureline, where it is very briefly mentioned.  The topic is so obscure that I don't actually think it would be a particularly useful search term, but if others think the redirect would be appropriate, I have no objections.

 * Redirect to Valérian and Laureline. I couldn't find sufficient evidence to show notability. Suonii180 (talk) 17:16, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
