First off, why does it use [[Template:Infobox Television]]? as if it was it's own series when it is just a compilation of episodes from the three main television series? No references or sources exist on the article and is better off being merged with the CSI franchise article. CrackedLeo (talk) 17:27, 11 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Another thing is that the title can be misleading with the CSI (franchise) article. CrackedLeo (talk) 17:31, 11 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - I'm hesitant with my deletion opinion because CSI typically has a lot of critical response. My problem with this is that I find it difficult that critics will be reviewing this as a single entity (as I'm finding reviews--most of which are not that professional, but some are--for individual episodes and not for the entire 2 1/2 broadcast). The title is also a bit misleading since that doesn't pop up in reliable sources either. I'm thinking that it's probably going to be better in the long run (if the sources can be found) to have 3 individual articles that indicate a connection to each other in prose.

- Don't we already have a list of CSI episodes? CrackedLeo (talk) 15:19, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- We do have lists of CSI episodes, but they're separate(a list for each show). This page covers a multi-part series that had an one episode in all three(at least, that's the impression I get from the page). I think we can keep it, but it definitely needs to be cleaned up.

- I think it would be better split into three separate pages, because I'm not finding a lot of sources that discuss this as a single entity. This is more of a single editor identifying storylines that crossover and making a single page out of it. The reviews are going to individual episodes, so that's probably how it should be kept.

- I suggest you read about Fictional crossover. And this is officially such a fictional crossover of three shows, not an idea of some user.--Avala (talk) 19:53, 15 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - I don't see any specific issues raised on the content, as for the problems, if you notice an inappropriate template you make an edit not AfD request, if you notice a confusing title you rename the article and you don't make an AfD request.--Avala (talk) 19:53, 15 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

- Keep: A major crossover between multiple shows is rather deserving of it's own article... I believe this precedent has already been set, as I have seen several articles for similar crossover events... (not using WP:OTHERSTUFF, rather I believe this type of article is notable) --khfan93 (t) (c) 01:19, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: Notable crossover episode, especially someone from Las Vegas (though not from the original cast) crosses over to New York for the first time. Just needs some work and cleanup. - 上村七美 (Nanami-chan) | talkback | contribs 03:41, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - I'd be very surprised if two non trivial independant sources can't be found for these three eps. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 06:10, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
