Talk:Joy to the World (House)

Bullet Pregnancy

That apocryphal story has been around way longer that Tom Waits. It apparently dates from a practical joke by a medical journal back in 1874. 96.242.198.32 (talk) 18:31, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

unreferenced

No, this is not "just a plot summary". At present, there are numerous elements that are not part of the plot. While some of those can be drawn from the show's credits (writer, guest stars, etc.) other elements (original air date, "only the fourth time House is seen doing this", etc.). I'm not sold on the notability of this episode and won't be unless/until there is significant coverage in independent reliable sources. Say this article, or any article, doesn't need sources is patently absurd, as such an article automatically fails the general notability guideline. - SummerPhD (talk) 20:43, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

So why haven't you nominated it for deletion? It's almost all plot summary. You'll climb the Reichstag to keep a pointless "sources needed" tag (knowing full well that no one will add a source for a plot summary), yet you let the article languish even though you think it should be deleted. Why not just place a "citation needed" tag on the miniscule parts that need citations, or nominate it for deletion? 71.77.20.119 (talk) 20:48, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

You are removing perfectly valid tags from numerous articles claiming they don't need sources. If anyone adds sufficient coverage to any one of them, they are notable. Until then, their notability is up in the air. If you feel that such coverage does not exist, you are certainly free to nominate the articles for deletion. Otherwise, you are removing the very tags that might encourage others to add such sources. - SummerPhD (talk) 20:58, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

You're avoiding my question: If you'll fight endlessly to keep a "sources needed" tag because you think the article needs it, then you must think the article should not be deleted. Otherwise you would nominate it for deletion. I never cease to be amazed by editors who are obsessed with following every little rule but ignore the issues that are glaring them in the face. 71.77.20.119 (talk) 21:03, 11 June 2010 (UTC)

I haven't searched for sources to determine if I feel it should be deleted. However, it is "glaring me in the face" that it needs sources. - SummerPhD (talk) 01:28, 12 June 2010 (UTC)
