Deletion rationale

The sarcasm and cattiness on this page is more suited to mAlf than MA/en. It's orphaned, and noy exactly encyclopedic. With a serious rewrite, it might be worth merging with the DS9 page, but... in its current form? No. -- Sulfur 00:21, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete. -- Sulfur 00:21, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Much of what is there is subjective, and not appropriate for an encyclopedia. I also think it would be a poor precedent to set. "Borg episode", "Klingon episode", etc. 31dot 00:26, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep sans POV. A legitimate, long-running tradition that merits coverage. Ferenginar 00:27, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment. This coming from the user that thinks that a good article for "Borg episode" is "Any episode a Borg appears in"? -- Sulfur 00:36, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete I don't think this site is needed. If someone is interested, he can look here: Ferengi. And most of it is subjective, what is described in the second comment. – Tom 00:58, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. --Jörg 07:58, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. I agree with 31dot about this setting a poor precedent. You could easily make a case for classifying any episode of the whole franchise as a "(fill in the blank) episode" and having an article to describe those that meet the parameters and why the writers revisited or didn't revisit the concept ("Captain Proton episode," "Harry Mudd episode," "Wesley Saves the Ship While Starfleet Officers Sit on Their Hands episode," etc.). Also, this statement -- "A Ferengi episode is the term used for stories which revolve around Quark and other Ferengi." -- begs the question of exactly who it is that uses this term. -- Bridge 08:19, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
