The result was Withdrawn by nominator. Even though the second title is still not reliably sourced, we can move it later if need be. — Edokter • Talk • 23:46, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Dead Man Walking (Torchwood) and A Day in the Death

Double nomination. The episode titles are currently unsourced. "Several websites" was named as a source, but even those have conflicting information. — Edokter • Talk • 15:28, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Comment Official confirmation of the title of the episode currently labelled "Dead Man Walking" will come from the BBC within the next week. So it's probably best to wait and see what they say before deciding whether to delete this page. Alberon (talk) 15:39, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment - DWM 392 is out on the 7th, and will probably give the remaining titles, so we'll see then. StuartDD contributions 15:57, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep. If the episode titles change, then it's easy enough to move the articles, however note both episodes are scheduled to air within the next 4 weeks, therefore firm indication of their titles should be available very soon if not already. 23skidoo (talk) 16:02, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep I removed the previous prod tag from both of these because they are already tagged as upcoming episodes and therefore subject to change. If something changes, deal with it then. Not sure why this would go to Afd. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 18:36, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Comment Agreed. If there was some doubt of the existence of these episodes, then fine. But there are multiple confirmation that all 13 episodes of Torchwood Series 2 will air, so even if the articles were simply called "Episode 11" or whatever, they would be viable. If the titles end up changing, then the articles can be renamed in about 10 seconds. 23skidoo (talk) 04:18, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete if it's not on Outpost Gallifrey, it doesn't exist Will (talk) 18:51, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Good grief, Keep. It comes from HDnet's online program guide. The information was taken down pretty soon after it went up, but not before it was mirrored everywhere. Aderack (talk) 03:10, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - if they're not BBC-confirmed titles, then why on Earth are they on Wikipedia? Porcupine (prickle me! · contribs · status) 20:42, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep and move if the titles change for some reason. WEBURIEDOURSECRETSINTHEGARDEN round of applause 21:03, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

*Delete - I'm guessing that these titles are not in DWM (since they would have been referenced by now if they were) - so there is no reason to have these articles. StuartDD contributions 21:33, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Keep, keep, keep - There is simply no good reason to remove information such as this. It should be verifiable soon enough, weeks before it airs. Keep it around for another 10 days or so, at the very least.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Homoaffectional (talk • contribs)
  • Keep. Plenty of sources provide the names -- e.g., tv.com.[1] Doczilla (talk) 09:33, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep The Radio Times website now has the listing for episode 7 and the title given for the episode is "Dead Man Walking" [2]. Given that the Radio Times is published by a subsidiary of the the BBC, I think that can be considered an official source. Alberon (talk) 14:28, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Change to Keep - First title now sourced by Radio Times. StuartDD contributions 16:32, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep - as per above. 84.70.190.214 (talk) 23:26, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
