Fails WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. Previous consensus on this sort of thing was fairly clear - see this, this and this. There are 4 of Brisbane schedules also in AfD now. VasuVR (talk, contribs) 13:27, 24 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Wikipedia policy explicitly prohibits television program guides. See What Wikipedia is not. Please, let us not turn Wikipedia into a television program guide. •••Life of Riley (T–C) 01:23, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This kind of information belongs in the articles about each individual show, if at all. -- Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 21:06, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete This will just a formatted transcription of another source. Not the sort of information expected or wanted in an encyclopedia, as it will be overwritten with changes as scheduling changes, as opposed to a recorded history of what aired when, which wouldn't be informative organized in this manner. -Verdatum (talk) 21:28, 1 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Could somebody please also AFD this List of United States network television schedules 122.107.114.116 (talk) 23:08, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. I second the delete suggestion on all similar articles of US schedules under WP:NOTDIR. I believe in one of the related AFD discussions on Brisbane TV schedules, a user had raised the issue that the US items were kept in AFD, while Australian items were discriminated against.

If you register with your own username you can propose deletions yourself. I would say the notability of this and that article are quite different, but it's not up to me, and that's what the AfD process does, it lets editors come to a consensus on such things.
