Unsourced and unremarkable television program. No RS found to establish notability. -- Whats new?(talk) 08:48, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

  • Delete for utter lack of any indication of either notability or sources.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:25, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

::*I think it could have simply been prodded.E.M.Gregory (talk) 19:26, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

:::{{reply to|E.M.Gregory}} I did PROD, it was deproded for reasons I still don't fully comprehend -- Whats new?(talk) 22:36, 2 February 2017 (UTC)

:::* So, I looked at the Prod remove comment, then ran a news archive search. There were 3 hits, mentions of this series in Aussie newspapers. Only 3. And all are mere announcements, like this one which I quote in full,: "This new series will each week air a program about pivotal days that changed the world, based on viewers' votes. Tonight's program goes back to London on the night of The Blitz - December 29, 1940. Events are told through the eyes of those who lived through it." That's it. No feature coverage. No reviews. 3 listings, all form 2007. It looks like a thoroughly un-notable TV series. Still iVoting delete.E.M.Gregory (talk) 00:01, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

  • Delete Generic countdown show with likely generic videos of historical events; nothing really notable, even the 'viewer choice' gimmick, which is more appropriate for a music video show than it should be for a historical event series. And no, the PRODding reason "as a TV programme it's a source in itself" isn't sourcing enough (from a sysop, really?); it needs some kind of independent vetting, or we'd have every YouTuber and musician claiming that 'my music/Minecraft Let's Play is a source in itself'.Nate (chatter) 05:57, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
  • Delete Does not appear to be notable as far as I can see. Looks like one of an article for everything as per List of programs broadcast by History (TV channel)... Perhaps merge as a footnote to the list entry in that list and redirect? Aoziwe (talk) 12:05, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

::Your target relates to the American channel, so a merge would not be appropriate. It is not a likely search term in any event -- Whats new?(talk) 22:54, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

:::Not sure that it is the NA channel only? given that this is already listed there? Aoziwe (talk) 10:53, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

::::From the lead of that article "This is an incomplete list of television programs formerly or currently broadcast by History/H2 in the United States." -- Whats new?(talk) 11:22, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

:::::Yes but the content does not appear to match, so does the lead change or does the content change? I do not know the content so cannot fix. There may well be more than one anomaly? Aoziwe (talk) 12:34, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

::::::The show may have been broadcast on the American channel. In any event, not relevant to this AfD -- Whats new?(talk) 22:08, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
