Non-notable show, no coverage and everything that turns up is completely unrelated. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 13:57, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep that was a very fast search in about 5 minutes just like your last two nominations. This is a BBC and ABC co-production from the leading TV channels in their country that was shown on their main national channels and would certainly have been reviewed in multiple reliable sources if not online then offline and almost certainly passes WP:NTV Atlantic306 (talk) 14:20, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Care to share them then? I searched newspapers as well, got nothing. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 14:21, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- - a 2010 series is not internet friendly and older newspapers are behind paywalls so a couple of minute search is not enough Atlantic306 (talk) 14:25, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

So you're basing this on the idea that there may be sources that you can't actually cite? I have a paid account to search newspapers.com as well as several others and much like my google search, it comes up empty. 2010 isn't exactly the e-stone age.

- well I was on newspapers.com and did not find it very helpful, when I do a full search it takes me at least an hour so I haven't got time now but will do one but many sources from 2010 are paywalled in factia, proquest etc. Atlantic306 (talk) 14:35, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Different styles, I guess. I can say that it doesn't take me an hour to determine that there is no coverage and all the hits are TV guide type listings. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 14:44, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

~~Weak~~ keep. The Sydney Morning Herald had at least one piece on the show. Although not mentioned in our article on the awards, Poppy Lee Friar did receive an 2010 AFI Award nomination for Best Lead Actress in a Television Drama for her role in this series. Is this rather marginal coverage? Yes, but I am generally willing to err on the side of inclusion for major productions (such as this BBC/ABC co-produced show), because invariably, additional sources do exist in non-online-searchable formats.

Indeed, additional sources there are. This news aggregator archive is not a reliable source in and of itself, but the sources it indexes are, and that includes at two more review/commentary articles (in The Age and Encore Magazine) in addition to the (syndicated) article I already mentioned above. The original sources would ideally need to be dug up and cited properly for editorial purposes, but demonstration of their existence is sufficient to clear the bar at AFD.

Keep Nominated for the AACTA Award for Best Children’s Television Series in 2010, that should be enough in itself. Boneymau (talk) 03:26, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Quick search finds articles in WA Today, Two in the Sydney Morning Herald, the age, sun herald, encore magazine, looks like text on the series on pages 104-109 of
