- Keep.Can anyone tell me why this page needs to be deleted? I disagree. Look at almost every other game show Wikipedia entry. There's always at least a section or two devoted to the show's set evolution. The Price is Right, Family Feud, The Joker's Wild, and Bullseye are just a few of many that have such "set" entries or detailed descriptions in their Wikipedia pages.
Granted, I originally wrote the "Set" evolution page and original section on the main Jeopardy! page, but saw it unnecessarily deleted time after time after I'd re-included it. The evolution of a game show's set is as important as the entry to the show itself on Wikipedia, as it is as important to the show's history itself. If you're in doubt, go buy the book "This is Jeopardy!" Each chapter (set to year-by-year or season-by-season) intro begins with an entry on the set changes that year.
- Keep. Looks worthwhile, informational, and encyclopedic to me. Yes, it could be merged, but the main article is already long enough, so it makes sense to have this "set evolution" page split out separately. --Elonka 23:02, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. - It's interesting content. Why needlessly delete? Boisemedia 04:35, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- Keep as we are trying to split the main Jeopardy! article up into sub-articles for size reasons. Andy Saunders 15:59, 13 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
