Article about a defunct rolling television weather forecast segment on a weather channel, not reliably sourced as having any standalone notability as a separate topic from the channel as a whole — the programs on a weather channel aren't different from each other in any meaningful way apart from their titles, and thus don't really warrant their own separate articles at all. I would ordinarily just have redirected this to the channel and walked away, but there's actually a film of significantly greater notability than this being bumped down to a disambiguated title even though it clearly has a much greater claim to WP:PRIMARYTOPIC rights for the name, and the only inbound link that's actually coming to this page at all is also expecting that film rather than this. So this should just be deleted so that the film can have the plain title, as I don't see the value in retaining a redirect to The Weather Network from a disambiguated title like "This Weekend (The Weather Network)".

  • Delete Searching for sources for this article is quite complicated by the fact that "this weekend" is such a common phrase. I tried pairing it up with "the weather network" and still got nowhere. This article's been here since 2006, and there's just no improvement nor does there appear to be any means by which to do so. --Hammersoft (talk) 02:43, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom, and particularly because the article has no sources. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:46, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
