If it's "the best show on TV" then please cite some 3rd party sources that say as such. Notability is the issue. The show sounds like any other of it's type. What makes this show more notable than any other? WebHamster 16:47, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Please see the reference I have just added Johnalexwood 17:05, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

That's just standard PR blurb, there's no indicator of awards or such. WebHamster 17:14, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

        • I think this link speaks for its self The Mike Sherman Show is a REAL TV series, and you say it isn't notable? Oh please. I think the argument here is just as usual. If the Wiki admin hasn't heard of it, then it can't be notable... Which is kind of hypocritical. [User:Awilliams100|Awilliams100]
You are making assumptions. My placement of the tag was based solely on what was in the article at the time I posted it. WebHamster 09:59, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Are you saying Webhamster that in Wikipedia's policies, it states that, in order for a TV show to be accepted as an entry, it has to have millions of viewers and that a mere several hundred thousand is not acceptable? If so, can you show me that speciic reference please? Johnalexwood 09:52, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

No, I was responding to a specific comment made on my User talk page. Did you seem me mention anything about how it related to WP notability guidelines? WebHamster 09:59, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Neutrality

There's starting to be too many "we's" etc, the article is becoming very POV orientated and very much like a press release. It needs rewriting to become more neutral. WebHamster 16:53, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Reworked the whole entry to neutral POV Johnalexwood 00:17, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

So, can the POV box be taken off now? Johnalexwood 09:51, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Thanks Webhamster! Johnalexwood 19:34, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

I've had a go at getting this towards NPOV; removed various weasel words, promotion, spammy uncited links,etc. --  Chzz  ►  17:59, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
