Aladdin's Adventures

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

Article is unsourced and doesn't indicate notability or existence. I looked up "Aladdin" and "RAI 2" together and found Aladdin (TV series) as the only cartoon result, which did aired on RAI 2. I cannot find any evidence of an Aladdin animated series from Italy. TheGGoose (talk) 18:37, 26 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: It looks like the show does indeed exist. I managed to find this [1] Italian website, which talks about a show called Aladdin's Adventures. It's clearly different from the Disney series, and the broadcasting rights are held by RaiTrade, which I assume is an affiliate of Rai 2. There very well may be notable coverage for the series in Italian-language sources, though I doubt that anything exists in English. I'll do a little more research and then get back to you with a vote. --Jpcase (talk) 00:55, 29 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Lastrego: Okay, so we actually have an article for the show's production studio, Lastrego & Testa Multimedia, here on the English Wikipedia. That article has a paragraph devoted to Aladdin's Adventures, and goes into a bit of detail, discussing the show's characters and animation design. Although no references are used, I wouldn't be at all surprised if several exist, again, even if they are only in Italian. If anyone ever feels compelled to put in the work of hunting those down and creating a quality article for this show, then they can do that. But Mr. Lama (who created the article this time around) clearly isn't interested in rescuing his work, as I see you've notified him of the AfD nomination. There's nothing in here to merge, so I suggest simply turning this into a redirect toward the article on the production company. I noticed that there was also a 1978 Indian film called Adventures of Aladdin, so we may want to add a Redirect template to the top of the Lastrego page, mentioning that film. --Jpcase (talk) 01:17, 29 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Thank you for finding this television show online. Looks like this won't turn into a deletion if sources are found. TheGGoose (talk) 02:35, 29 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
