The result was Merge and Redirect to The Cheetah Girls (girl group). Summary: As per Non-administrators closing discussions, section 1, subsection 1, I may close this variation of "keep"; an unambiguous "merge and redirect." This case has been open for at least 7 days and may be considered back loged since regular AFD requires only 5 days. Tally of comments/votes shows a majority concensus of 8 or more for merge, 4 deletes and 3 keeps. CyclePat 00:50, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Cheetah Girls (TV series)

The Cheetah Girls (TV series) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) - (View log)

Article about TV series that was canceled before it was aired. Was already deleted as The Cheetah Girls (TV Series) (note the different capitalization), and is not much different from it's previous incarnation. Full of speculation and crystalballery (WP:NOT).

• Delete or merge to The Cheetah Girls (girl group). Not enough verifiable content for its own article. --- RockMFR 02:59, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete as recreated material. Resolute 03:09, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
• Merge/redirect, if there's anything worth merging. --Davidbober 03:19, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete as recreated content. If the author(s) feel that the content is important enough it can be merged into The Cheetah Girls (girl group). -- wtfunkymonkey 03:58, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
• 'Weak keep. The article states that episodes were actually produced of this series. If so, then it is notable as one of the few American TV series to be cancelled before airing an episode. 23skidoo 04:15, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Is that really a marker of notability?--Dmz5*Edits**Talk* 05:29, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

• MERGE- I did not create the page, it has information that is encylopedic, just like other cancelled pilots have pages. But I also see the point. I will merge the information to the page. Just wait one second. LOL Jtervin 14:38, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
• DONE - with the merger. It was merged into merchandise. Jtervin 14:43, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete and redirect to The Cheetah Girls (girl group). The projects of this group that actually come to pass are notable; those that never make it to air can be covered in the general article for the group and don't need separate articles. --Metropolitan90 19:51, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
• Merge into The Cheetah Girls (girl group) Considering the show itself never even aired, its notability is questionable. However, including that information in the article about the musical group would be appropriate. Dugwiki 20:43, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
• Keep The fact that it was canceled is not enough to call it non-notable. Many shows have been canceled and still have articles (Quantum Leap for instance). JCO312 23:20, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

• You're comparing Quantum Leap to a series the never even aired? GassyGuy 00:27, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

• I think the wording in the nomination was misleading. Leave it to Beaver and I Love Lucy have been "cancelled" too, but this article states that this show never aired. That's a different story. Wavy G 01:27, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

• Yeah, I just realized how vague I was in wording that nomination. Fixed it to be more specific on what actually happened to it. NeoChaosX (talk, walk) 02:16, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

• Speedy delete per terence ong ⇒ SWATJester ^{On Belay!} 23:48, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy delete as recreation of previously deleted article. Wavy G 01:27, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
• Keep since it has sources and other shows that never aired (like "Haversham Hall") have pages. LAUGH90 22:09, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete and Redirect to The Cheetah Girls (girl group) it never aired so it pure speculation. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 11:25, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
• Comment. I'm disappointed that this article might wind up as a "no consensus keep", which I don't think is necessary. Therefore, I would like to point out (1) that unlike most other television shows which are cancelled before being aired, this one has an obvious target to merge into, since the Cheetah Girls remained viable as a project despite the cancellation of their series; and (2) that there are only 4 sentences of prose text in this article, which could easily be merged into The Cheetah Girls (girl group). --Metropolitan90 19:20, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

• Merge content to The Cheetah Girls (whatever that is?) per Metropolitan90. The TV show is worth a mention in the main article, but its own article would be unnecessary. Wavy G 05:13, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

"Merge" I think this should be as a topic in the Chettah Girls Article. Should Not Be Deleted.Pendo 4 03:01, 23 January 2007 (UTC) Pendo 4

• Speedy delete per above... Addhoc 18:13, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
