- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
This was a poor nomination. To call something that another editor has worked on "Cruft" (i.e. "information of little value") is a a bit rude, and fails to explicitly express a reason for deletion. (See Wikipedia:Deletion_policy#Reasons_for_deletion.) But there are no sources, so notability can not be established. Delete.

Listcruft. Anything meaningful can be folded into List of Conan episodes —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 18:45, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong keep: Several of the sketches are notable in their own right; and all are notable by virtue of being tied to a notable TV show. I could and point out that there are similar articles devoted to the sketches of Late Night and The Tonight Show, and numerous other , but I don't think I have to. Precedent is pretty clearly on the side of keep in this case Purplebackpack89 18:58, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak keep...if some sources are added, that is. Erpert (let's talk about it) 19:48, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- I know exactly what's gonna happen. We'll get 30 "keep but source" !votes, resulting in a keep; the article will sit for two years in complete stasis, someone will renominate it; someone else will start the ball rolling on more "keep but source" !votes and it'll get kept again without anything happening. Let's kill this infinite loop before it starts. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 23:34, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Absolutely no evidence of notability is presented. The absence of references doesn't help. The nominator is correct in dismissing this as listcruft. Regent of the Seatopians (talk) 23:46, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Regent. Everyone's saying "keep but source" but not even trying to prove that sources exist. QUIT SAYING KEEP BUT SOURCE UNLESS YOU KNOW THAT SOURCES EXIST. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 03:00, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- "Everyone"? It's only two people. Calm down, Hammer. Erpert (let's talk about it) 07:56, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete I strongly disagree with the creator's assertion of "inherited notabilty". Just because Conan and his show are notable doesn't mean we need to discuss every sketch on his show. The broad topic really isn't discussed by third-party sources, so notability is lacking. If any sketches are important to the show's history they can be mentioned in the article about the show.

- Strong keep - These are notable in their own right, and sketch lists are included for Late Night and Tonight, as well as Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. There is no reason to delete this. - Cartoon Boy (talk) 2:19, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
- Delete No sources to back up the claim that these are, in fact, notable. The episode list is a much better article than a trivia-filled fancruft page. :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 03:44, 27 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
