This is mostly without sources, or sourced to the BBC, which doesn't approach WP:SIGCOV. Most of the article is plot recap which is already covered at the character articles. Jontesta (talk) 15:35, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

• Keep: Whilst it can be argued that the plot is overly detailed, I see no reason to delete this article as it is a significant and length story arc which was a prominent part of the soap during this period. Rillington (talk) 12:29, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
• :@Rillington do you have reliable sources showing this impact and notability? These are needed in order to build a separate article upon and verify that this subject is meeting independent guidelines. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 14:38, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
• Comment: The length of this story arc - several months - satisfies notability although I accept that references are not as easy to come by, not least as, at the time, the listings for EastEnders in Radio Times were nothing other than a line from the show. Therefore, other plot references are most likely to come from synopses in newspaper listings. Rillington (talk) 13:08, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

• Delete Doesn't pass WP:GNG. WP:BEFORE search only showed WP:TRIVIALMENTIONs. A redirect may be an WP:ATD if we can agree on a target. Shooterwalker (talk) 23:57, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
• Comment Redirect/merge would result in the information contained about a major story arc effectively being totally deleted from Wikipedia, as merge/redirect is another word for delete. Whilst I said before, I accept that the article is overly detailed, I don't see how anything contained in this article can be retained anywhere else.Rillington (talk) 13:08, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
• Delete - The issue here isn't so much that the article is "overly detailed", its that it fails the WP:GNG. The sources included, not counting those that are official tie in books, are just trivial coverage. Many are nothing but a sentence mention, and at least one does not even mention the location or story arc. How long the story arc ran for does not contribute to passing the WP:GNG, only significant coverage in reliable sources does, and searches are not showing that this topic has that.

• Note: Wikipedia:WikiProject EastEnders was not notified about this, which it should have been. DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 19:52, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
• It is clear that, despite me wanting it to be retained, that, as it stands, this article is going to be deleted. However, can I please ask that this article is not deleted today, and instead relisted for another week so that Wikipedia:WikiProject EastEnders is given the chance to provide any input into this discussion and/or address the reasons why others are advocating for the deletion of this article. Rillington (talk) 11:40, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
• :I'd support giving some time to WP:EastEnders. They've done some good work before so I'm curious if they can turn up anything for Dickens Hill. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 15:17, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

• Merge to several articles if necessary. Much of the development section could probably be merged with Den Watts, while the character sections should be merged with the relevent sections of List of EastEnders characters introduced in 1988, as well as some parts of the development section, the parts that are relevant to each character. — 🌼📽️AnemoneProjectors💬 21:49, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
