Same problems as Articles for deletion/Let the Angels Commit:"Tagged as failing WP:GNG. Does not seem notable outside of being an episode of Grey's Anatomy."Curb Chain (talk) 01:09, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete No indication of wp:notability of/for a separate episode like this. Zero references.  Looks like part of mass-production of articles on individual episodes with some material duplicated across articles. North8000 (talk) 03:55, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

Nominating this many articles at once makes it almost impossible to find proper sources in the necessary time: it takes 1 minute to do a cookie-cutter nomination, hours of research to source an article. This nomination is especially telling, in that the article is completely unlike the two articles before it in the list, and different objections would hold: one is too scanty, one others too detailed. It thus makes it  clear that the nom. and the delete !voter above have either not read the article, or not bothered thinking about it, or perhaps consider all episode articles identical no matter what they say. An altogether destructive approach, discouraging intelligent decisions.  DGG ( talk ) 04:43, 5 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep contracting the plot section .  There is too much detail. For example, the section on the operation on the toxic patient could have been done in half the space or less. . The source for the plot is as it should be the episode itself. The source for the production data is presumably the DVD jacket, but does need to be stated. This particular article mentions reviews--they need The criterion is unsourceable, not currently unsourced. It's odd to see an objection that it uses a common format--we would expect it to, just like all articles on settlements, or sports events,--they all have defined formats. Just like them, all television series articles in fact are going to need to discuss the same sorts of things. If the format were different for each, the material would be much less readable.
 * I would not have nominated these articles if I thought they were notable.Curb Chain (talk) 05:41, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Note: Numerous Grey's Anatomy episodes have been serially nominated. More general discussion can be found at Articles for deletion/If Tomorrow Never Comes (Grey's Anatomy).--Milowent • hasspoken  14:04, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep or redirect to season article. With all the serial noms, I do not have time to check each one for notability.  But even any that are not notable should be redirected to the season article per WP:TVEP. Rlendog (talk) 21:24, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
 * There is some additional coverage here. Rlendog (talk) 02:45, 18 February 2012 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Grey's Anatomy (season 3). Nothing about this particular episode is individually notable.  See also my comments at Articles for deletion/If Tomorrow Never Comes (Grey's Anatomy).  Liv it ⇑ Eh?/What? 23:23, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
