[edit] Merge proposal
I believe that currently, the TDI episode articles don't match the guideline on episodes, WP:EPISODE. They need to have more than just a plot summary before they can stand on their own. So I believe they should be merged until further real-world information can be found on them. Cheers. -Malkinann 07:53, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- I don't think that they should be merged into one article; the various episode pages like "The Not So Happy Campers" and "Search and Do Not Destroy" have everything needed to have it's own pages. There are many, many other episodes of other television shows that have their own pages like this, and I've read WP:EPISODE. It has more than just a plot summary; what I have down includes cultural references, regular references, how much they scored in votes, as well, I'll be adding more.

- Thanks for your reply and your work on the episode articles. I'm still not convinced - the only cultural reference in S&DND is that the title comes from S&D, which hardly needs pointing out, and TNSHC's Chris McClean 'cultural reference' needs a citation (Why Jeff Probst? why not just a general reality TV show host?) and should go in the character list. I don't think the censorship thing on that article is hugely important to the understanding of the show either. I don't think TV.com is a reliable source that we can cite. -Malkinann 22:16, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- No problem. I can dig up reliable sources if you wish, or, I can merge these articles into that one article. What would you more agree with? - Yours truly, Superior(talk) 23:03, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
- I've been looking for sources too, and I've not been finding any, aside from the production blog and more general articles, which I've been using in the main TDI article. I'd rather that the episodes be merged back into the list, with a shorter summary for the episode. (approx 200 words). -Malkinann 11:37, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Do the Merger
It is a good merger but you should take off 2 unimportant lines to do so. It should happen.
