International airings of Prison Break[edit]

Delete - for the same reason many similar articles for shows from Desperate Housewives to The Simpsons to Smallville have been deleted, Wikipedia is not a TV Guide. Viewers can check their local listings. Otto4711 19:18, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge back into the main article about Prison Break. It wouldn't take up much space there; just show it as a list there, omitting the flag icons and the redundant columns for "title" and "translation" since the show is known as Prison Break in almost every country identified so far. --Metropolitan90 19:28, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep or merge If we say that Prison Break airs in the USA on FOX, why not say where it airs in other countries? We are interested in a worldwide view. Yechiel Man 20:31, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We say it airs on Fox in the US because that's it's originating network. Otto4711 23:28, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge into Prison Break. Main article is a little lengthy at 53 kB, but nothing that would preclude merging this back in. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 20:52, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Note: This debate has been included in the list of Film and TV-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 12:21, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - because it's all fine to say merge but any non delete vote typically gets treated as a keep vote and then misapplied as rational to keep a nonmerged article. Happens all the time. So delete and if the info is any good someone can put it on the main article. DreamGuy 21:13, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, for GFDL reasons, we aren't normally supposed to delete articles which contain content that gets merged into another article, but replace the original article with a redirect; though it could also be argued that as a simple table of facts, this article isn't subject to copyright protection so GFDL doesn't apply.

Keep, the world is bigger than the US, also provides interesting cultural reference V8rik 21:53, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or merge to Prison Break, informative table which demonstrates the worldwide distribution of the show. DHowell 19:46, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
