Delete. Reason: not notable enough and not encyclopedic.

Keep and expand with episode summaries. As far as lists of TV episodes go, this one is actually fairly good, and with six seasons and 84 episodes the series is notable; also, as the series has ended its run, the list could easily be expanded without becoming unmanageable.. --

Keep. The show is notable, the list is notable, and the episodes of the show are as notable as the show itself. -

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a library of episodes for a television series. Besides, how exactly is it notable? The movie only received $11,000,000.
Marcus2 13:03, 1 November 2005 (UTC)reply
You never see lists like this one in other encyclopedias, so therefore the list is unnotable. And the episodes have not had a major impact on world culture, so therefore the episodes aren't notable. If I were an administrator, I would promptly delete the article, I kid you not.

Remind me to vote against you on RFA, then. You just don't speedy an article with meaningful content, even if you strongly disagree with the encyclopedic quality of that content.-

I'll second that sentiment, no need to go all extreme on us.

Strong keep. The Powerpuff Girls? Not notable? 2,230,000 Google hits, translated into a dozen languages, spawned a line of toys and a movie. Episode lists for mainstream television is long accepted on Wikipedia. —

Isn't every show translated into a dozen languages? Besides, the movie made hardly much money.
Marcus2 13:03, 1 November 2005 (UTC)reply
The movie bombed because it was released quite a while after the peak of the show's popularity; PPG was all but cancelled for nearly a year before the movie was released. -

Strong keep. Plenty of precedent, and the series definitely has enough episodes to justify a separate article listing.

What do you mean by "plenty of precedent"?
Marcus2 13:43, 1 November 2005 (UTC)reply
Keep. Useful list of episodes for those interested in a fairly major cartoon series.
Sjakkalle(Check!) 08:17, 1 November 2005 (UTC)reply
If you think the show is "fairly major", go see how much money the movie made.
Marcus2 13:03, 1 November 2005 (UTC)reply
Keep this list, as it can and should be expanded to terse episode summaries. Please, please, please don't make individual articles for each PPG episode, though. -

Keep - perfectly notable. As for how much the movie made, check out
Gigli (film) which made minus $48,000,000, but still has a rather elegant page which nobody has nominated for deletion (rightly so).

Keep Notable, needs to be expanded.
PJM 15:22, 1 November 2005 (UTC)reply
Keep, as we have other lists and the show is notable.

Assume bad faith. Based on Marcus' history with the Power Puff Girls here at Wikipedia, I can't help but think this is another assault omon the subject rather than the article. Marcus, please don't abuse the AfD to make a point. -
