The Cube (U.S. game show)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Television show does not exist. A pilot was taped in 2010, but the show never moved to production. Two sources to BuzzerBlog are dead links, and the other linked sources describe the pilot phase of the show, but no firm confirmation the program was green-lit. Google search returns no sources discussing production that are dated past 2010. AldezD (talk) 17:02, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete The pilot was shot but the show never came to fruition, and thus the subject in question is not notable. --Bentvfan54321 (talk) 22:28, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete Smashed WP:CRYSTAL; it's doubtful NPH is waiting by their phone waiting for a 13 episode order on this any longer.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 21:55, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
 * '''Redirect to Neil Patrick Harris, the host of the show. Wowee Zowee public (talk) 15:49, 13 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment We usually don't redirect pilots to their hosts/principal actors; it was never picked up, and only the game show obsessives cared about the ultimate fate of this show.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 03:47, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
 * If that is the case, then there is a stronger case for a keep. Also note that TV episodes are considered legitimate WP articles. I do not agree with that. Since that is the case, there is a good case for a keep if there is not a redirect. Please don't say "other crap exists" because when you have hundreds or thousands of TV episode articles, there is no way you can fight that. Conclusion: Redirect is the best, Keep is the second best, Delete is the worse, the very worse is delete and take it out of Wikipedia knowledge by not even having it on the Neil Patrick Harris page.

 * This is not a television episode. The program does not exist. This was a pilot that was never picked up for broadcast. A television pilot does not meet WP:N, and a redirect for something that does not meet WP:N is unnecessary. AldezD (talk) 19:13, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Note: Wowee Zowee public was blocked for baiting editors into arguments, of which I assume they were trying to do here, so please disregard this !vote. In the meantime I'll add a short sentence about the pilot to the NPH article, which should be appropriate enough to fulfill how this show should be mentioned.
