[edit] Dojo, Oh No!/ Finding Hershel

I am nominating this and all other articles at List of Yin Yang Yo! episodes. EVERY singles article consist of just "This is the --th episode of Yin Yang Yo!", even the descriptions on the List of episodes page is more informative. TJ Spyke 05:03, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Delete, pages with no context or whatsoever. The articles are redundant and the list is enough for the episode, since this is somehow a duplicate of the list. If it has some info about the episode, then that's ok. Terence 05:41, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Delete all the pages except Night Fall (right article listed?), which is a legit stub of a 2004 novel. All the others, however, have absolutely no context. SkierRMH 07:39, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- I fixes the link. The episode is the same as the others though in terms of content. TJ Spyke 07:44, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Keep These articles may be stubs, with minimal content as of yet, however, the potential to add content is there, the same for almost every other episode of a television show. Articles don't suddenly become full of content over night, they need time to improve. Deleting these articles now will only discourage folks from working on that. If you're somehow bothered by these being stubs, then make them all redirects until further information is added. If you just object to the idea of including the episodes of a television show as Wikipedia articles, well, in that case, I think you need to establish some sort of policy consensus first.

Weak keep per FrozenPurpleCube. There is something of a precedent for individual episode articles for many television shows, and while WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a good reason for inclusion, I don't think it applies here as the precedent is strong. Also agree that lack of content alone is not qualification for deletion, as it would be relatively easy for an interested author to expand these to the standard of other television show episode articles out there.

- WP requires that articles (even stubs) have some notability or reason they should be kept even when they are first created. I'm OK with redirecting them, and the creater of these articles can always restore them when if/when he is willing to actually put some effort into them. TJ Spyke 20:30, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
  - Yin Yang Yo is a nationally broadcast television program, therefore I accept that they do have some reason to be kept, as well, episodes of television shows are in general acceptable content on Wikipedia. FrozenPurpleCube 23:06, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Delete all The coverage at List of Yin Yang Yo! episodes is fine, there is no need for individual articles. Brianyoumans 21:15, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Keep for now These articles have only been around a few days. I have found that things like this tend to take a least a few weeks to fill out.Slavlin 02:31, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Delete all. The show is barely notable enough on its own, much less individual episode articles. I'm not a big fan of individual episode articles for any show, anyway, unless they're particularly notable or memorable on their own (last episode of M*A*S*H or Seinfeld, for instance).

Keep, sound action stations. Consensus is to improve, not delete (WP:EPISODE). Article establishes notability to me. Matthew 22:54, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Keep, we have a consensus to improve television episode articles and not delete them. It takes a long time to finish every episode of a tv series, so you can redirect them for now if you like. - Peregrine Fisher 22:57, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Merge, despite what Matthew and Peregrine Fisher claim, the consensus at WP:EPISODE seems to be to MERGE episode articles unless and until enough information can be provided about a particular episode to justify a separate article. Either merge back to the main article on the show, or, if there's too much info for that, merge to articles on the seasons of the show. Xtifr _tälk 03:16, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- The articles contain nothing merge worthy (they just say "This was the --th episode of Yin Yang Yo". I could accept a redirect to List of Yin Yang Yo! episodes, which contains more info on every episode. TJ Spyke 03:24, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
  - Well, gosh, that will make it really easy to implement my suggestion, then, won't it? :) Xtifr _tälk 21:45, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
