:The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was redirect to List of Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. episodes. I've gauged the consensus here to be be to redirect the article. Out of the 4 people who have commented, only 1 wishes to keep the article. The others wish to delete the article. It appears that those wishing to outright delete agree that the List of Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. episodes article covers the subject matter. Given this, I believe that a redirect is the consensus here.

This listing may be of trivia-level interest to fans of this old TV show, but I don't see how it fits into Wikipedia's editorial criteria. If there is a Gomer Pyle Wiki, this information should go there. And Adoil Descended (talk) 17:20, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

  • It is not clear to me why these "writers" lists are being created for a bunch of shows.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:30, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Query Is your argument the same for the other 43 entries at :Category:Lists of writers by television series or based on this series being "old"? 24.151.116.25 (talk) 17:32, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Before this gets going you might want to make this a general nom of the whole category. It is better than doing them a few at a time, IMO.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 18:15, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Just saw [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:TonyTheTiger&diff=557716700&oldid=557668450 this] on my talk page, which has the section title "There are lists of writers by television series to determine who wrote the most episodes". I think directing is more important than writing. Why not lists of directors for each show? producers?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 18:18, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

:The argument I am making is WP:FANCRUFT. And Adoil Descended (talk) 20:54, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

::From WP:FANCRUFT: "Generally speaking, the perception that an article is fancruft can be a contributing factor in its nomination and deletion, but it is not the actual reason for deletion." 24.151.116.25 (talk) 21:24, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

  • Redirect Doesn't meet stand alone list requirements; and it seems that the entire material may already be at List of Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. episodes as part of the episode listing! I see no reason why we need a separate list for this. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 03:46, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
