Per WP:FANCRUFT WP:NOTCATALOGUE and WP:NOTIINFO, it's not the job of Wikipedia to provide a comprehensive list of every single media that can ever be purchased. Ajf773 ( talk) 10:33, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Television, Film, Literature, and Lists. Ajf773 ( talk) 10:33, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
- Keep Lists of various sorts of things are kept individually for various authors and franchises. The argument for deletion is, at best, an argument for breaking a comprehensive list into two or more specific lists, e.g. on books and TV/video. Jclemens ( talk) 17:41, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
- The argument is to keep none of it. Ajf773 ( talk) 10:08, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
- Smerge to the main article. Agree that this is mostly just cruft without justification for a whole standalone list, even combined. A sentence or two about the TV movies can comfortably fit there, and would be appropriate, especially since they link to specific articles for them. The season DVD release years could always be added to the existing table, but that's probably overkill, especially broken down by region. If sourceable, a note could be added that there have been a series of books written based on the series, but we don't need to be listing every single one of them. 35.139.154.158 ( talk) 23:39, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
- Comment Maybe an expansion to a full list of media for the franchise could be an idea, for example something similar to List of Scooby-Doo media. ★Trekker ( talk) 19:11, 4 June 2023 (UTC)

- Merge to Sabrina the Teenage Witch - obviously fails GNG but I don't see the harm in having at the aforementioned article with cites. – Davey2010 Talk 22:14, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- Other than the TV movies, which already appear in the parent article, the rest appears to be fancruft. I don't know how knowing every single home video/DVD release for every region in the world, and their release dates, can possibly be encyclopedic.

- Because it tells the reader more videos, books etc were released - Anyone reading the article now probably only believe a few or one were released when in fact over 40 odd were released – Davey2010 Talk 11:35, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

- Arguably the only stuff worth merging is the stuff that is already merged (the films). The rest of it is both unsourced and not notable. Ajf773 ( talk) 19:17, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
