The result was Keep. There is consensus here that this is adequately sourced content that should not be deleted. There is not consensus as to whether it should remain as a seperate list or be merged into the parent article. This AfD closure should not be understood to prejudice any merge discussions on the article talk page. Eluchil404 (talk) 03:17, 16 January 2024 (UTC)(non-admin closure)[reply]

- Delete The list contains the episode information from three(!) different TV series sharing a name. Not to mention that the article has no sourcing demonstrating WP:GNG, I don't believe that this article is up to WP standards and should be WP:TNT.

- Merge/split/rename or whatever you would call my decision: per WP:NLIST, pages like these can exist. However I don't think there's any reason to include the pages for the other two series based on the manga. So here's what I would do:
- 1. either merge the episode list for the original Negima anime to the original article at the Anime section, or if it gets too long, keep it there. If the latter happens, rename the article to List of Negima! episodes or List of Negima! (TV series) episodes. I don't know much about naming conventions so I don't know if a ! is enough disambiguation especially with the similarly titled TV series with a !? instead.
- 2. Merge Negima!? episodes to the corresponding article.
- 3. Merge the Negima live-action episodes to the section in the Negima manga page... or not? I haven't seen any other pages for mangas that have been adapted for live-action series have a whole episode table yet unless it's notable enough for a separate article (see Komi Can't Communicate, Erased, Guilty or generally many of the articles in Category:Japanese television dramas based on manga).
- So, yeah, that's my opinion. Spinixster (chat!) 10:12, 2 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge - agree with Spinixster, this page is too cluttered with three different media properties. Should be split and merged into their respective topics. Kazamzam (talk) 14:26, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Each show should have its own episode list article, so keep this one for the main show, and create articles for the other two. Dream Focus 11:06, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Relisting. Offering a multitude of possibilities only helps if there is a large group of editors participating in a discussion who can assess the benefit of each suggestion. With a low attendance (like many AFDs these days), right now this looks like a No consensus closure unless more people show up.

- Keep. General practice is for TV shows/animes to have lists of episodes in separate articles for the sake of convenience: we don't require independent notability for the list of episodes as its own topic. Splitting pages is a separate issue from deletion (and seems like it is a good idea here, but that is not germane to AfD). jp×g🗯️ 19:38, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
