- Doubt (Criminal Minds) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)
Google shows there is no information about these episodes from reliable sources (only blogs and episode guides). The individual episodes are not notable. There is already a brief outline of the episodes at List of Criminal Minds episodes and simply redirecting these articles to there makes little sense - no reader is going to type in one of these article titles as a search term.

- Wow. That's a lot. Each and every one has been checked to see that they don't have any RS coverage? My first instinct would be to just merge them into the List of Criminal Minds episodes. You may want to do that, and if it 'sticks', withdraw the AfD. Otherwise it is possible that a bundle nomination this big might get closed as keep just due to how unwieldy it might be to pick out individual elements. Protonk (talk) 03:49, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Sadly (for my real life, anyway! ;), I did check each one on Google and only came up with blogs and episode guides. Even the season final and first episode back (but then, even the pilot episode doesn't have its own article). I'm not a fan of bundling, but I believe these articles all have the same level of RS coverage, and that therefore bundling was preferable to creating separate AFDs and flooding the page.

- Ok, figured I would ask. Thanks. Protonk (talk) 05:16, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Destroy them all! — Each and every one of those articles is nothing more than the common two-sentence lead introduction, not to mention none of them are sourced. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. MuZemike (talk) 05:12, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to List of Criminal Minds episodes. Before or after deletion, doesn't matter to me. I don't think this falls under WP:NOT as we have episode articles for other shows. It is just that we shouldn't really spin episode articles out without some RS coverage. Protonk (talk) 05:16, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge into or Redirect to the Criminal Minds article. Eatabullet (talk) 13:02, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect Salvage anything important. No need for all these articles. Computerjoe's talk 19:07, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete non-notable episodes mostly consisting of just an infobox and a sentence. Not even useful as likely redirects. RMHED (talk) 19:42, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge/redirect I disagree with the nom that these are implausible search terms. In any case, anything worth keeping should be merged. IMO, television episodes that aren't (in)famous for some reason shouldn't get articles. JuJube (talk) 04:02, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete all an non-notable, allow creation of list article, but do not redirect. The parantheses make them very unlikely search terms (searcher would need to write the exact title, searching "doubt ciminal minds" does not find the article!), and some are notable terms in thermselves.Yobmod (talk) 09:57, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge into List of Criminal Minds episodes improving on the basic plot summary that is already there. Deletion is highly unnecessary but do at least salvage some of the good information that has come out of the hard work of whomever to created them. Perhaps a series/season summary similar to that of 24 (season 1) would be best suited to television shows? --82.42.150.196 (talk) 22:28, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect all to List of Criminal Minds episodes. Would not be opposed to a Merge of any relevant information if there is anything that can be salvaged from these articles. Lankiveil (speak to me) 04:12, 18 October 2008 (UTC).[reply]
