Fails
WP:BEFORE search is hindered by the enormous volume of advertising and cross-advertising for this subject, and I was unable to find a single article discussing the show itself or anything that would contribute towards establishing its notability. Per What Wikipedia is not: it is not for advertising, marketing, a means of self-promotion, a catalog or directory, or a web hosting service — all of which this 'article' attempts to use Wikipedia for. There is a mention of this show in Pritzker Military Museum & Library, but I fail to see why the entire series of episodes needs to be hosted on Wikipedia instead of its own website. Even the main article topic (Pritzker Military Museum & Library) doesn't have much coverage. I notice there is even a wikiproject Wikipedia:GLAM/Pritzker to coordinate the Pritzker promotions. Not sure that's acceptable in Wikipedia. Normal Op (talk) 09:21, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

- Keep: Meets WP:BEFORE here, as the first page of a Google search brings up pages supporting those claims. The mischaracterisation of Wikipedia:GLAM/Pritzker is outrageous. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 22:35, 20 August 2020 (UTC)]
- Comment: That quote starts with the word "Generally" which you have omitted from your rendition, Pigsonthewing, meaning that isn't an open and shut case. The policy also includes
"the presence or absence of reliable sources is more definitive than the geographic range of the program's audience alone"
, to which I point out (again) the glaring omission from the article of ANY citation except for those from its own website and IMDb content (mindful that IMDb content can be user-generated). In other words, your argument on the face does NOT solve the notability issue. Nor does it address theWP:PROMOTIONAL nature of the article, especially since it is supported by the museum's own WikiProject. What other organization in the world has its own WikiProject?!?!?!

. Dozens, possibly hundreds. There is nothing promotional about the article; it contains bare factual statements of the type common - and welcome - in Wikipedia. Your nomination rationale, as well as lacking WP:BEFORE, is apparently based on fundamental misunderstandings.

- Comment: I struck my objection to GLAM project in the nomination text. There remains the problem that there are ZERO secondary source citations in the article showing this topic is notable. Fix that, show me that the topic/article is notable by your actions, not simply your words, and I will consider your request. Normal Op (talk) 18:27, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Comment: Thank you for your response and thank you for your reconsideration regarding the GLAM question. I have found several references to this television program that might be of help, including one from the U.S. Strategic Command, one from the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and one from the American Battlefields Trust. The most interesting one I found (though this would raise questions of citogenesis were we to try to use it in the article) was a chapter in the book Leveraging Wikipedia: Connecting Communities of Knowledge that was specifically about the Pritzker Museum & Library's experiences with having a Wikipedia GLAM project. (This book has been on my to-read list for a while, but I have not yet gotten to it.) KConWiki (talk) 23:00, 22 August 2020 (UTC)]
- If those are relevant and appropriate, then you should edit the article. Normal Op (talk) 23:42, 22 August 2020 (UTC)
- Deletion proposals do not stand or fall on whether someone edits the article (something you could do, and should have done before nominating this article), but whether sources exist. You could do the right thing and withdraw this one, which will never succeed, now, to save other people their time.
