Fight or Flight (Star Trek: Enterprise)

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

No evidence this episode has independent notability. I don't see any indication it was nominated for or received any awards, with no substantive review or commentary from third-party sources. Already appropriately covered at list of episodes --EEMIV (talk) 21:14, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This article has been nominated for rescue. Alpha Quadrant ^talk 22:52, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep - AFD is not cleanup. The article needs substantial cleanup. This is not a reason to delete. Taking the article to AFD because of the disagreement over whether or not it should be merged is improper. Wikipedia is not Wiktionary. Merging all Star Trek article into single page lists with definitions is not what Wikipedia is for. Wikipedia is a encyclopedia. --Alpha Quadrant ^talk 22:52, 13 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Merge all episode articles - Indeed, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, but it is an encyclopedia with a mechanism for determining which subjects require an entire article devoted to them. It appears that all of the first season episodes have their own articles at this point (and they have existed for quite awhile), so while they probably should all be merged back to the list of episodes and/or to the Season 1 article, it's unlikely that the status quo is going to overturned. None of these individual episodes appear to pass the notability threshold. The only coverage I can find about them (most of it is like this) proves that they exist, but not that they are notable.
