Episode articles

[edit]
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
To merge the 4 name epidsode articles into List of Star Wars: The Clone Wars episodes; views included draftiy, AfD (with merge as the likely outcome) and merge; there were no arguments in support of keep with current improvement, nor for improving while in draft; merge is hence most parsimonius with all views, and consistent with the last stated position (consensus via WP:SILENCE).

The other day I caused a bit of a mess by boldly draftifying the few episode articles that exist for this series:

I believe these do not meet the standards we expect for episode articles and should be improved or redirected to this list. Previous AfD discussions have found consensus for keeping the articles and improving them, so that is why I chose to send them to draftspace where they could be improved rather than redirecting them here. I thought this would be uncontroversial so I went ahead and made the bold moves, but Sirfurboy objected so the articles have been moved back to the mainspace. Now starting this discussion to get consensus before any further moves. What do others think about the below options?

  • Leave the articles as they are (knowing that there has been little interest in improving them over the last decade)
  • Redirect them to this list (if so, do we need to return to AfD considering the previous discussions there?)
  • Send them back to draftspace so they can be improved in the future

Thanks for raising this. I think they have to go to AfD. They are ineligible for draftify unless that is an AfD outcome (which I think is unlikely). A WP:BLAR would also be controversial in light of previous AfDs. My own view is that I doubt any of these are independently notable, and would probably say as much at AfD. It is likely, therefore, that I would say they should be merged or redirected to those pages (but would need to do some searching to firm up my view). You could attempt to tackle this through a merge discussion, but per WP:CONLEVEL, I think that this really needs a new consensus at AfD. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 13:28, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Mainspace is where articles can be improved, not draftspace. There are several reasons that this draftification was wrong, two of which are named at WP:DONTDRAFTIFY: it shouldn't be done for articles over 90 days old; and other editors have asserted the articles belong in mainspace (at AfD). Why is it not a bulleted option for you to improve the articles? This would address the content issue at its root. — Bilorv (talk) 16:47, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am not interested in improving these articles at this time and I'm not sure why you think that is my job. I am just pointing out that these do not meet the WP:TV standards for episode articles and there has been little effort from other editors to improve them in the last decade. Draftspace literally exists so editors can improve articles until they are ready for the mainspace. - adamstom97 (talk) 11:22, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see that all four articles now have merge discussion headers and they point here for the discussion. This is now a merge discussion, and draftification is moot. The question is whether these may be merged with List of Star Wars: The Clone Wars episodes or whether they are sufficiently independently notable that they should have their own articles. Merge or not? Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 12:02, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
What? Just because this is a merge discussion does not mean they cannot be sent to the draftspace. - adamstom97 (talk) 12:04, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draft

[edit]

I've been working on a draft of an article that is related to this show. I've done as much as I can but I am still new at this and would love help with getting this ready for mainspace. Ladtrack (talk) 20:23, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
