[edit] Animal Airport

This could be a mildly interesting article if only there were more details. Where, in Heathrow, is the 'Animal Reception Centre'? What does it do? Who works there? Sadly, these details don't appear in any websearches either so Delete. Eddie.willers 03:35, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

• • Comment. After exhaustive websearching, all I can turn up about this show is that a total of eight, 24-minute episodes were made in 1999 by World Television for the British Channel 5. It has been repeated since on satllite & cable channels but not on by the terrestrial broadcasters. I would hesitate, therefore, to say that it is 'notable'. There do not appear to be listings of its content or production staff on the web although it is in current distribution for broadcast. Eddie.willers 14:20, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep TV programs are generally notable, and being a stub is not a criterion for deletion. — brighterorange (talk) 03:50, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete I don't see verification that this is a real TV show. If it's shown it's real and it's broadcast nationally, I'll probably vote to keep. --rob 06:21, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

  • Do you have a source that confirms this? If so, please include it in the article, and I will happily reconsider my vote. --rob 10:32, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
• AFAIK Animal Airport is simply a compilation of animal related parts of the BBC TV documentary series "Airport". The "Airport" series is notable, "Animal Airport" isn't a show in its own right. If there's a page for the BBC "Airport" series, redirect Animal Airport there and add comment?
  • Are you sure? This link http://tinyurl.com/ahp82 credits it to Channel 5, which would be a strange place for a BBC documentary to end up. In either case, Keep(waynemarkstubbs) 14:30, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

• re-direct to Airport (television show) per above. Nothing to merge, since a) no verified info exists, and b) the target already mentions the "the animal reception centre" in it. --rob 14:22, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
• Comment: A Google search for "animal airport" turns up a variety of hits for this show, see [1] for example, but not all that much information. So it's verifiable but not clearly notable. --Metropolitan90 14:26, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
