Aside from the fact that this article is incredibly poorly written, it appears to be about a cartoon that is either entirely nonexistent or at least very, very non-notable. A quick Google search doesn't bring up anything relevant. While there do appear to be a few cartoons made to the song, they're all fan creations and I can't find any suggestion that the Beatles' ever made a cartoon for the song. The only functional external link is to a site selling memorabilia, which has no mention of any cartoon. Natalie (talk) 17:33, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete. I think. My brain's hurting. --Dweller (talk) 17:38, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. The fact that this has been there since October 2007 is a little disturbing. Even if we find some source that might, possibly, maybe establish some modicum of notability, this article is not salvageable. UltraExactZZ Claims ~ Evidence 17:40, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete no evidence of notability. --Jayron32.talk.contribs 17:46, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete When Abbey Road was released, "Late Night Line Up" commissioned a number of short films as accompaniments to the broadcast of the album in its entirety. I remember watching it. However, since no information seems to be available at present, there is nothing to support this article. It's not a hoax, however. --Rodhullandemu (Talk) 17:58, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
    • Perhaps all these short films could be written about in a single article? Everyking (talk) 19:07, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
That would be a good idea, if sources could be found. Trip to the library tomorrow, I think.--Rodhullandemu (Talk) 19:14, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Make sure that it is dead... --Jayron32.talk.contribs 18:14, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete and shoot it to Mars. Salih (talk) 18:29, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete — I think that it's actually some memorabilia that the Beatle's signed or something. Still not notable. --Haemo (talk) 19:46, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
    In fact, I think this (image) is exactly what the article is about. --Haemo (talk) 19:48, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
    Is it that hard to understand? As I read it, it's talking about a cartoon, acting as a kind of music video for the song, which aired on a television show at around the time the Abbey Road album was released. If this were something that aired today, hardly anyone would contest the notability of it (although they might want to merge it), so I am perplexed at the strength of the opposition to having this content. Everyking (talk) 07:21, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
    I'd bet the strength of opposition has less to do with the article and more to do with the fact that it was discussed on AN. Natalie (talk) 13:19, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
