The result was redirect to Thomas & Friends (series 2). Will indefinitely semiprotect due to repeated recreation. The Bushranger One ping only 12:15, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

Absolutely no indication of notability; essentially a plot summary and credits, taken from the episode itself and/or IMDb. Repeatedly created, redirected and recreated by an anonymous editor who ignores all talk requests. Needs salt. SummerPhDv2.0 05:38, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
- Comment - Also applies to Thomas & Bertie, Thomas, Percy and the Coal, Thomas Comes to Breakfast, Percy Takes the Plunge, Thomas & Gordon and A Scarf for Percy, but I have no clue how to setup one AFD for multiple articles. - SummerPhDv2.0 05:41, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect or delete - I converted most of these to redirects, but the articles' creator was silently resistant and has now resorted to sockpuppetry via IP 2601:1C1:8203:A370:E5A4:2196:4749:782 to convert them back to articles. Redirecting and semiprotecting the pages would be fine, but I can also see an argument for deletion if the kid is gonna start being a pain about it. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 08:10, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

- Redirect to Thomas & Friends (series 2). It is normal practice to have articles on seasons, but not on individual episodes. Sjakkalle (Check!) 11:11, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
- Both Thomas, Percy and the Coal and Percy Takes the Plunge can also be redirected to Thomas & Friends (series 2). I have retargeted Cyphoidbomb's redirects to the relevant article on the series/season. Sjakkalle (Check!) 11:17, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect does seem absolutely the right thing here. If the user is being troublesome then it's an admin (or dispute resolution) matter; obviously the sockpuppetry can be reported. Chiswick Chap (talk) 13:52, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
- Delete. This isn't a useful search term. Szzuk (talk) 20:51, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect to Thomas & Friends (series 2) - Perfectly acceptable search term if one is looking for the individual episode, No evidence of notability for an article so makes sense to Merge than Delete. –Davey2010Talk 00:20, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect to Thomas & Friends (series 2). Not finding enough source coverage to qualify an article. North America1000 01:26, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- Redirect the bunch of them for lack of reliable secondary coverage, and semi-protect. I was going to close this as "redirect," but I haven't the tools to perform the protection, so it would be neater if somebody that does closes this. Vanamonde93 (talk) 06:41, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
