Appears to fail notability, nothing found in a BEFORE. Tagged for notability since 2011.
PROD removed with "deprod; every Torchwood episode has an article", which is untrue. At least one other episode from Series 1 does not have an article, and none of Series 3 have articles. Also WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not a valid keep argument. DonaldD23 talk to me 02:22, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

- Comment. It's not a valid keep argument, but it's a valid argument against prodding, which is only for uncontroversial deletion. Something which many editors seem to fail to understand. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 10:09, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
- Delete - I find it dumb that so many series seem to have an unwritten rule that every episode must have an article. Besides The Simpsons, I see no series in which every episode is notable enough for its own article (and even The Simpsons is stretching it). Anyways, rant over, if it's been tagged for so long and nobody found sources, then it should usually be deleted. LilianaUwU ( talk / contributions) 10:13, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
- Delete per LilianaUwU. We simply don't need to over-represent series such as this just because they are disproportionately popular with a particular demographic that tends to contribute to Wikipedia more heavily. RobinCarmody ( talk) 18:25, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
- Delete. Echoing what Liliana said, not every episode of a TV show would have an article, only the ones that are notable. SWinxy ( talk) 21:27, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Can we redirect this to the pertinent season of the show? That is typically done with PROD'd articles but I don't see anyone mention it here.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 06:54, 15 April 2023 (UTC)- As nominator, I support a redirect. DonaldD23 talk to me 13:22, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect - I would suggest redirecting to List of Torchwood episodes as is the case with the other series one episode not to have an article - They Keep Killing Suzie. Dunarc ( talk) 22:46, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
