[edit] Guinevere Jones episodes

Hard Rain (Guinevere Jones episode), Psyched, That Old Black Magic (Guinevere Jones episode), Ordinary Evil, Weird Sisters (Guinevere Jones episode), Dybbukkin, First Date (Guinevere Jones episode), Warwe and Mineer, Love Hurts, The Dryad, Solo Act, Shadows (Guinevere Jones episode), Choices and Rebellion (Guinevere Jones episode) -- a series of substubs on episodes of a TV show, all of which are well-covered by the main article, Guinevere Jones. I realize many Saturday Night Live episodes have recently been kept, but Guinevere Jones has left no mark on popular culture and only ran for two seasons. Also see point five of WP:FICT. ♥purplefeltangel ^(talk) ♥ ^{(Contributions)} 00:43, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

• Keep per general precedent for keeping TV episode articles. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 00:49, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment: I don't think there is a general precedent for keeping TV episode articles for every series. I could be wrong, but I know that over at The Prisoner we debated over whether we should do individual episode articles -- and that was for a series that a) only had 17 episodes total and b) is still highly regarded and frequently referenced over 35 years after it showed. If there's a general precedent that every TV series merits individual articles for each episode, a lot of us missed the memo. -- Antaeus Feldspar 05:51, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete All Of Them TV Cruft --Aranda56 00:59, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. The Guinevere Jones article already provides the plot for each episode, and these articles don't. --Metropolitan90 01:10, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete as non-notable. Wikipedia should not be an episode guide. Does the mistake of keeping other episodes mean we have to keep making it over and over? Having an article about a tv series should be enough. -- Kjkolb 04:25, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete per Metropolitan90. - Mgm|^(talk) 11:21, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete: Absolutely no consensus on keeping episode articles on any series, much less the less-than-iconic ones. We battle every day against the cruftism of "every joke a page" and "every character a series of pages" impulse. If it cannot be said in a single article, in this case, it is probably best to wait for a specialist, fan-wiki. Geogre 19:00, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Merge to two season episode-plot-summary articles, per WP:FICT, or delete entirely. Series is not sufficiently notable to merit many thousands of words of not-paper coverage here. Barno 19:10, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
• Neutral. Wikipedia is not paper, and TV series episodes are a legitimate topic. However most of these are substubs that haven't been expanded in several months since their creation, and in their current state no real information would be lost by deleting them. However, deletion on this basis shouldn't preclude re-creation later. -- Curps 20:16, 23 September 2005 (UTC) Keep Psyched and Rebellion (not substubs as pointed out by User:Caerwine below) and delete the rest if not de-sub-stubbed before the end of this AfD. -- Curps 04:33, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete all except Psyched and Rebellion (Guinevere Jones episode) as abandoned sub-stubs.

Neutral on Psyched and Rebellion (Guinevere Jones episode) Caerwine 01:38, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

• Delete all. TV-cruft. Don't merge, just get rid of it. / Peter ^Isotalo 03:28, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Wikipedia should have the abilty to be a place to get episode guide Cruft is not always bad, plus Wikipedia's not paper. Nick Dillinger 07:37, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
