Article has an overlong plot unsupported by real world info or notability; a trivia section, and an infobox. The plot summary in the LoE is redundant to what's here. ThuranX (talk) 02:45, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

• Speedy Delete - The article is a copyvio from . I tagged it for speedy deletion. OlYeller 02:53, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
  • If only. that's a mirror of us. ThuranX (talk) 03:06, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

<<ec>>Speedy declined. http://dic.academic.ru/dic.nsf/enwiki/2262054 got its content from WIkipedia. Look in the upper right hand corner. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 03:07, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

• Merge and redirect to List of M*A*S*H episodes (Season 1). Cheers, Dlohcierekim 03:07, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
• Keep and add more real world context and criticism, it is no more detailed than any movie plot or contemporary TV program. We need to avoid a bias toward recentism. The scrape of the Misplaced Pages article is the violation, not the other way around. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 03:12, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
  • Article has had tags for two years asking for such to no avail. ThuranX (talk) 03:27, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
• Delete No assertion of importance or significance. Drawn Some (talk) 03:27, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
• Delete No sources, episodes aren't individually notable. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • 03:40, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

I don't see any difference between this MASH episode an a random Seinfeld episode, for example: The Postponement. Seinfeld has episodic plot outlines as well as season summaries. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 03:45, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

That may be a legitimate comparison in your eyes, but there is a notable difference, as regards this set of AfDs. I'm not looking at Seinfeld, I'm looking at MASH. so I think that yours is effectively an OTHERCRAPEXISTS argument. Perhaps I'll look at those later. ThuranX (talk) 03:53, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

As I understand it WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS has been superseded by WIKIPEDIA:DONTQUOTEPERSONALESSAYSASPOLICY --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 03:57, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

You'd be wrong. A popular cheap rejoinder to a serious point isn't superseding anything. The point stands. ZBecause you can find a problem in something else does not jsutify ignoring a problem here. ThuranX (talk) 04:00, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

If you feel so strongly, AFD a few Seinfeld episodes too, to show me that this isn't recentism, and is a deeper policy issue. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 04:09, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Okay guys both please be civil. ThuranX is nominating the articles, not deciding whether or not they should be kept, and he should be thanked for doing all of this work, not attacked for it. Mr. Norton that last comment is inappropriate, he's already working, you nominate the Seinfeld junk and let him finish this. Drawn Some (talk) 04:10, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

(EC)That's not the project I'm working on, and I'm not your monkey. Go Nom it yourself. I fail to see how noting that articles tagged for for GNG for 2 years, consisting of only plots and trivia, should be deleted, has anything to do with recentisms at all. It happened to be a mess I stumbled upon and decided to clean up. That's it. ThuranX (talk) 04:13, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

• Redirect to appropriate M*A*S*H* episode list. Unnotable episode of the series with nothing but an overly long plot summary and unsourced trivia. Fails WP:N and WP:WAF. Per Wp:MOS-TV, numerous other episode AfDs, and general consensus regarding individual episode articles, redirecting per norm. -- Collectonian (talk · contribs) 04:20, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
