[edit] Świat według Kiepskich

Listing nomination from August 9. no vote. Nabla 00:57:14, 2005-09-02 (UTC)

Seems like something that should belong in Polish Wikipedia, but is entirely non-notable outside of Poland, aside from being a legacy of Married With Children (Google). --Howcheng 16:56, 9 August 2005 (UTC)

• Keep--Witkacy 05:01, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
• Abstain for now. I'll be back to check to see whether or not so much as a translation of its name into English has been made to the article by then, or whether or not any of the apparently uniquely unnoteworthy actrons are no longer red links. Witkacy, I trust you'll see to this? Tomer ^TALK 05:05, August 11, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - there is whole category Category:Television series by country and it matches it perfectly. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kyleall (talk • contribs) August 11, 2005 at 13:34 (UTC).
• Keep - if it's notable in Poland, it's notable in Wikipedia. This is not the United States Wikipedia. - ulayiti (talk) (my RfA) 02:59, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy keep and avoid Anglocentric bias. Martg76 03:59, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, just because this is the English language Wikipedia doesn't mean all of the articles have to be about English speaking countries. Zoe 05:19, September 2, 2005 (UTC)
• Obvious keep. Nabla, please go re-read the criterion for deletion page. —RaD Man (talk) 06:41, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Notable television program. Capitalistroadster 07:03, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Speedy Keep. The Polish language rules. RaD Man, please note that Nabla didn't initiate the vote; he/she just listed the nomination formally. Proto t c 09:18, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Weak keep Might be notable in Da Windy City or Linden, New Jersey. Then again, maybe not... Roodog2k (talk) 10:55, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete: Verification of notability? Referred to by what? In fact, this is the English Wikipedia, meaning that topics are supposed to be encountered by English-speakers. When the title remains in Polish and the article's claims for notability are only that it was popular within Poland, we're looking at something similar to a local TV show: it hasn't sufficient context in the English written world. It may be the greatest TV show ever, might have had a big audience in Poland, but will the anglophone reader require it, under this title, in this location, and learn sufficient amounts from this? It doesn't seem that way to me, although I would be happy to see citations in English to the show that would make it an English-language topic. Geogre 11:03, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep More important than any of the above arguements is (of course): You can find it using Google. 212.101.64.4 11:05, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - I hope they might have any possible plans to revitalize the show and do an American spin-off of it! UniReb 11:19, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep per "if it's on TV, it must be notable." Dottore So 13:33, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Doesn't matter if it's in Polish, it's still a notable show. Amren ^(talk) 14:28, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per Geogre. No evidence of notability in the English reading world. Anyone for whom this is significant can read Polish and can look it up in the Polish wikipedia. Quale 18:01, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, this is an English language, encyclopedia, not an English world one. We have a skewed view and if we can have article for individual Simpson seasons I'm sure a popular TV show works. gren グレン 19:28, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete per Geogre's arguments. No evidence presented that this is (yet) relevant to the English Wikipedia. A foreign language TV show might be encyclopedic here if the article were a discussion of the social impact made by the show (either domestically or abroad). This mere plot summary does not qualify. Side comment: I strongly dispute the allegation that "if it's on TV, it must be notable." Rossami (talk) 22:00, 2 September 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - if this is notable in Poland, it merits an article in the English-language Wikipedia. -- The Anome 06:21, September 3, 2005 (UTC)
• Keep - it isn't perfect article, but it may be useful; it's really popular in Poland 62.69.192.55 13:10, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. As per Geogre. / Peter ^Isotalo 20:43, 7 September 2005 (UTC)
