- List of 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown panellists ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – ( View log | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google ( books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
Fails WP:LSC/ WP:IINFO: no sources are presented to show the significance of this as a topic or a reason why this list is of historical importance (e.g. did appearing on Catsdown lead many of these people's careers to take off?). Even if completed, the page would contain no information not already covered at List of 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown episodes. The programme is notable but, I would say, not so notable that we need a separate article listing all panellists. — Bilorv ( talk) 18:54, 23 July 2023 (UTC)

SportingFlyer: it's not original research because it's easily verifiable from the primary source of the episodes themselves. I would recommend against merging as this would either mean an incomplete list (which this list is at present) or take up an enormous amount of article space. —

- It may be original in the sense that this chart has never been compiled everywhere else. Just because it can be easily verified back to the primary source of each episode doesn't mean it's not still WP:OR. SportingFlyer T· C 19:51, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
