America's Next Top Model, Cycle 18
AfDs for this article:
- Delete As stated, fails requirements for WP:EVENT as well. There is virtually no reason for this page to exist if Wiki is not a fan site. Please discuss these matters on fan sites, fan forums, and other means outside of Wiki. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.147.72.167 (talk) 14:07, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Does not meet requirements for WP:NOTNEWSPAPER policy because it fails to demonstrate why or how it will have any enduring notability. Page should be merged into a generalized America's Next Top Model page, or even more accurately merge all of the iterations of this show together into 1 small page including the British and other national versions.

KeepThere are major issues with the entire ANTM article space, but they shouldn't be dealt with through wholesale deletion. Also due to lack of edits, reads as a possible bad faith nomination.chatter) 04:51, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Switch to Speedy Keep The posts brought up by Life of Riley make clear that nothing except an agenda push unrelated to ANTM was the reason for this nom. We don't need this AfD stretched out further or for this to be dragged into the MMA discussion. chatter) 23:27, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Show receives wide press coverage (particularly in fashion/celebrity/women's-interest publication), establishing notability. It's well established that series or even episodes of TV shows can have separate articles providing they have sufficient references. --Colapeninsula (talk) 09:38, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete As stated, fails requirements for WP:EVENT as well. There is virtually no reason for this page to exist if Wiki is not a fan site. Please discuss these matters on fan sites, fan forums, and other means outside of Wiki. Why can't fans of America's Top Model make their own wiki for this WP:fancruft?

- Speedy Keep As right now, per given statement in ]
- Keep and close. Bad faith nomination by bad faith user. See a couple of nominator's edits here and here. This nomination appears to be a retaliation against another user for the deletion of some MMA-related articles. •••Life of Riley (T–C) 19:08, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment It is really presumptuous of you to comment on the nominators motive, as you have no insight into his thinking process. Regardless, this article fails Wiki standards based on my post above, and for that reason should be deleted. This isn't a fan site for "America's Next Top Model", it is an encyclopedia. Such a shallow reality show is not fit for an encyclopedia entry, especially not dozens of articles on every little nuance related to the show. At the very least, merge all the individual articles into one entry for "America's Next Top Model" and be done with it. This isn't a fan site, this isn't a news site. Wikipedia is not the place for up-to-the-minute update news from reality TV. AugustWest1980 (talk) 20:42, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy keep This is clearly a pointy, bad faith nomination to get back at the creator. Mississippistfan and AugustWest1980 are a part of this bad faith nomination. SilverserenC 23:59, 11 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
