AfDs for this article:
- Once a Ranger (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log • AfD statistics)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Fails WP:GNG - no significant coverage in reliable sources, and also arguably WP:NOTGUIDE. It's not the purpose of Wikipedia to document television episodes unless they have genuine notability. Claritas § 14:37, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Note: This debate has been included in the list of Television-related deletion discussions. -- • Gene93k (talk) 16:52, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep I'm genuinely not seeing a reason for a third AfD on this. Arguments in favor of keeping in the past two AfDs are still valid. Note that there's an exceptionally large number of false positives for this terms, so Google is particularly difficult to use. Jclemens (talk) 17:13, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- The last two AFDs did not end in a consensus to keep or delete, so it would be appropriate to state the arguments you consider relevant here. False positives may be a problem, but WP:BURDEN applies. Thanks. Claritas § 17:19, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per my reasons at the last AfD and Claritas's clear reasoning. I find the sources either not independent (rangercentral), extremely run-of-the-mill (Tv guides and IMDB) or of dubious reliability (the angelfire website and Cynopsis). Using sources like this reeks of desperate barrel-scraping, and is arguably evidence of non-notability. Reyk YO! 02:23, 5 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:02, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- It should be merged to List of Power Rangers: Operation Overdrive episodes the fansites such as Rangers Central aren't considered reliable sources of information. Dwanyewest (talk) 03:22, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or Redirect to the episode list. I agree with Reyk about the 'sources', and feel that if real sources actually existed someone would surely have found them by now. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 15:56, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
