Banned from the Bible[edit]

Adding article on the sequel:

This article is on a non-notable History Channel documentary. The documentary itself contains numerous errors and misleading data, but this information cannot be included in the article because no reliable secondary sources have discussed the documentary in detail. The article originally functioned as a WP:POVFORK by reproducing the errors of the documentary itself, but since that was trimmed the article has been almost completely bare.

Comment - I completed the nomination for User:126.0.96.220 (User:Hijiri88), combining the two (nearly) identical rationales into a single AfD. Ansh666 06:25, 8 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! :D Also I should have pointed out that the documentaries are also both very obviously (given their broadcast dates and their sharing Dan Brown's flawed view of books almost no one ever took seriously as scripture being "banned" from "the Bible") designed to capitalize on The Da Vinci Code (for the first one) and The Da Vinci Code (film) (for the sequel). This is another point that a neutral, encyclopedic discussion of these documentaries would have to include, but we are unable to mention it because there aren't enough reliable third-party sources. 126.0.96.220 (talk) 08:51, 8 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Non-notable documentary series. If people want to leave a redirect for Biblical apocrypha, I'm okay with that. Carrite (talk) 18:27, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and do not redirect. Non-notable miniseries, not mentioned in the article Biblical apocrypha or any related page on that subject. – Fayenatic London 21:30, 18 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -- This appears to be about apocryphal and even less reliable works that were excluded from the Bible. This will all be covered in Biblical apocrypha and related articles. The fact that they featured in a certain TV series would surely fail . Peterkingiron (talk) 18:45, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
