During the AfD, an IPv6 user claimed to have added new content to the article using newspaper sources. No discussion was carried out about the sources allegedly found by this IP, and therefore the closure as delete was premature. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 17:11, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The IP made no claim that the sources established notability for the article, and the consensus (to me) before this comment seemed clearly that there was not notability to be found. There is a difference between verifiability (which the IP's additions may have addressed) and notability (which the IP's comments didn't speak to).

We will still need an admin to list the sources used by the IP, if you can find the edit(s) they made to the article, in order to review their found sources ourselves. –LaundryPizza03 (d) 17:27, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • The sources added by the IP were all to the episode list. While I haven't seen the most of the actual sources cited (they're offline), the references were largely to the TV sections of either the Nottingham Evening Post or the Huddersfield Daily Examiner on the day the episode was broadcast, and I strongly suspect they just confirm that the episode was indeed broadcast on that date and don't provide significant coverage. For example "Dad's Tomatoes - First broadcast: 11/5/1998" was referenced to "Television and radio, Nottingham Evening Post, 11 May 1998 (pg.26)". The other sources were to a database which lists the collections of the British Film Institute, e.g. [1], which again isn't going to help meet the notability guidelines. I don't see much reason to revisit this. Hut 8.5 18:16, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • for me at least this is in the google cache [2] and gi ven the references seem to be tv pages on each and every episode, I doubt it proves much beyond existence. --81.100.164.154 (talk) 20:47, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorse. The closer correctly found a consensus to delete. No argument to keep was made. Talking about a list of episodes, sourced or unsourced, is too dissimilar from a statement that the topic is notable, in order for it to be understood as an argument to keep that went unaddressed by the preceding participants. —Alalch E. 13:03, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Endorse - It was valid to close the deletion discussion, and Delete was the only valid conclusion at close. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:28, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Allow Recreation in draft to expand on the sources added by the unregistered editor. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:28, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
