[edit] Bad Boys of SNL

Original research. There is a "Bad Boys of SNL" TV special, but the term is not used elsewhere. The video could be referenced from the SNL page, but there is no 'group of actors' going by this name. Sparkhead 01:49, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

• Weak Delete. This violates NOR, I might support a keep if it were completely re-written to focus on the TV special, but as of now it references an article that really has very little to do with this page's contents. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Irongargoyle (talk • contribs).
• OR but, the term has been made outside the DVD/episode. Also "slap pack" is not a term not refering to the same group(read website ref). As far as I can tell, the members section is just a list of actors on the show since '85 and movies section a table of famous SNL people and the movies they've been in it. On that note, I say copy lead into History of Saturday Night Live (1980-1985) then delete and redirect to History of Saturday Night Live (1980-1985).—Mitaphane _talk 02:26, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep but Merge into SNL article and remove the original research. Ramsquire 19:23, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete, I had previously done some work on the article, but soon realized that the "Bad Boys of SNL" was just a TV special, and as far as I could google search, the term is only used in reference to the title, not to any such "group." Reference the title on whichever SNL article it fits into best. Radagast83 20:49, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to SNL article, after excising OR. --Storkk 10:59, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to SNL article. -- Sy / ^(talk) 23:52, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
• Merge and redirect to SNL, after removing the OR (which will leave bascially two lines). Themindset 20:14, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
• Keep Is a notable term. Article should focus on the DVD release, but could also talk about legacy/films/SNL etc. OR should be thrown out though. Davey4 12:33, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete if there is any non-ORish stuff to say, someone can merge it to SNL before it gets the axe. There is no reason why every SNL special or DVD set needs it's own article. 205.157.110.11 01:50, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
