What Goes On (TV series)
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

An unremarkable, never-aired TV series; no significant RS coverage can be found. Most of the content is based on a press release: The N begins production. FoutonCritic quotation comes from the same press release. So this is a dated WP:PROMO. The AfD in 2009 closed as a speedy keep due to a mistaken nomination, but I'm not convinced that the subject was notable at that time either. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:30, 4 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Comment - If we're counting Hollywood Reporter as reputable (I'm not familiar enough with it to say what the consensus on that is), then this might I imagine be worth merging to the writer, Sri Rao, as I found this very nice feature article on him. However, I still have to through the rest of the google hits - he shares a name with a spiritual leader, which confuses things. Yvarta (talk) 15:07, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Probably enough to make a biography stick, actually:, and shorter mentions: ,, . He wrote Baar Baar Dekho, which came out two days ago and seems to be getting reviews. Yvarta (talk) 15:13, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment -- I'm not sure what would be worthwhile to merge as the article under discussion is based entirely on a press release (i.e. not an independent secondary source). K.e.coffman (talk) 05:09, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I tend to say "merge" instead of "redirect" so I don't accidentally insult the page creator by insinuating all their work was worthless - and press releases can be useful for dates, etc. But either way, a redirect might still be useful, and WP:Redirects are cheap.

 * Sri Rao. With the new press, I suspect a few minutes of stub-building could have a page with a solid claim for notability up. Maybe someone will be inspired. Yvarta (talk) 01:05, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom, if anyone gets around to writing an article on the author it can be redirected there but there's nothing here to save - David Gerard (talk) 07:16, 15 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete - I don't see any compelling reason for keeping this. The series was never even aired. It never picked up substantial coverage. That it exists in some form attracts mentions here and there, but that's not the sort of thing that we can build a good article on. CoffeeWithMarkets (talk) 11:55, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
