[edit] History of Family Guy

History of Family Guy (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Most TV show histories on this wiki are placed on the show's main article. And what's with that unencyclopedic and offtopic "Uncensored" section? (trogga) 00:04, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

  • Merge with Family Guy, no need for a separate article. --Canley 04:55, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. Legitimate subsidiary article of Family Guy per Wikipedia:Summary style. EALacey 12:19, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per WP:SUMMARY. I did remove that "uncensored" section as completely unreferenced. Otto4711 13:09, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Extremely redundant. Merge as needed with Family Guy, where this info belongs. / edgarde 01:38, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep as per WP:NOT#PAPER. Article is too long to merge, perfectly valid at present. Matthew 08:35, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep - WP:SS. Good out of universe article. - Peregrine Fisher 14:48, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge with Family Guy. Neither article is terribly unwieldly, and merging would make a substantial, comprehensive whole. Captain Infinity 20:45, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge, the point of the main Family Guy article is to give an overview of the show, and should have a section on it's creation and such. Widdle down things and put back into that article. There are hundreds of shows in history far more important than family guy, and I don't see any "The History of C*H*I*P*S" articles floating around. Dannycali 22:48, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
