The result was delete. Level of detail not supported by reliable sources; that some sources can be found for some episodes is probably not surprising but does not help support this article. Drmies (talk) 20:22, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

List of Deal or No Deal (U.S. game show) episodes[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Overly-detailed list of episodes for a game show. No sources present. Episode descriptions read like fancruft. This is not a television series with fictional plot synopses that should be chronicled in an article, and the specific details of results from a television game show episode do not meet WP:GNG.

Delete - As a point, non-fictional program like reality television can have episodic descriptions that can be sourced to reliable recaps, much less the show itself (this is common for Survivor and Amazing Race seasons). That said, Deal or no Deal is nowhere close to needing such descriptions. The main show page can note some of the special episodes that got notice in sources (like I believe the one where Pres. Obama was on via telecast) but not every single episode is needed. --MASEM (t) 18:17, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Masem. I see no encyclopedic merit to this level of detail for a game show. postdlf (talk) 03:13, 22 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I looked up one episode and found these: [1] [2] [3] [4]. --Odie5533 (talk) 04:20, 23 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
