The result was redirect to Pied Piper of Hamelin in popular culture. The one argument to keep asserted that sources were found, but didn't present any of them. There's really not much we can do with that. If you have sources, you need to tell us what they are. There were two possible redirect targets mentioned. I arbitrarily picked one. If somebody feels there's a better redirect target, feel free to change it. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:15, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

The Electric Piper

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

In my WP:BEFORE I was not able to find any significant coverage from secondary sources (references in the article are: a passing mention of one line in an interview, cartoon database entry and a press release of Nickelodeon announcing movies which is a primary source). So fails WP:GNG easily. Nothing changed since the first AfD 3 years ago which also had some using the WP:THEREMUSTBESOURCES which is not allowed in AfDs (since then Electric Piper article became The Electric Piper hence no notices about 2nd nom).

 * Redirect to either Pied_Piper_of_Hamelin_in_popular_culture or List_of_Nickelodeon_original_films. I can't find anything to show that it would be considered notable - it hasn't been shown since and it doesn't look like the movie received any true coverage in its day. It could probably redirect to either the pop culture article for the Pied Piper or the list of Nickelodeon films, though. ReaderofthePack (｡◕‿◕｡)  17:41, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep Are you sure you did WP:BEFORE, there are a number of small references when I did a google search for the program and the fact it aired on an international children tv channel suggests to me it should be passing a threshold. Govvy (talk) 13:44, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment Pretty sure I did my WP:BEFORE, as also supported by another person up there. Which small references did you find? To pass notability guidelines, this subject needs multiple significant coverage from reliable secondary sources per WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 13:13, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
