The Duke of Edinburgh Awards[edit]

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

Article was PRODded by another editor but this was opposed. This article is essentially just an extended plot summary of a television episode with no encyclopaedic treatment of the subject, and therefore fails WP:PLOT. Notability has not been established - there is a single, primary-source reference in the article that is used only to support the running time. A requested move discussion on the article's talk page recommends moving the article (this is neither necessary or appropriate) and subsequently redirecting the article to Duke of Edinburgh Awards. Redirection might be an appropriate outcome of this discussion as an alternative to deletion. AussieLegend (✉) 07:31, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I see a wider issue here. The article on The Inbetweeners shows that all the episodes of series 1 and 2 and some of the episodes of series 3 have their own articles and they are all as bad as this one. Furthermore they are all listed in List of The Inbetweeners episodes where the information on each episode is almost the same as the individual articles. They should all be redirects to that list article, but that needs a new discussion and I do not have time. So I propose here a redirect to List of The Inbetweeners episodes and then we can look at the rest. --Bduke (Discussion) 11:36, 3 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Several of those have notable topics with names where the episode title is a viable redirect for. All of those should be deleted as replicating the list's material, and those that are viable search terms of other topics should redirect to those other topics (and not to the episode list). The episode list can be noted as a hatnote at the alternative topics. -- 70.51.202.113 (talk) 04:05, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom. Notability not established, notability is WP:NOTINHERITED either which the person who removed the PROD claims that it inherited the notability of the TV show overall. After deletion, this should redirect to Duke of Edinburgh's Award. -- 70.51.202.113 (talk) 04:05, 4 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
