Probably don't need a single line summary of every episode in a single season cartoon. It is completely unsourced and no real importance outside of James Bond fandom (I am a huge Bond fan, and even watched this show when I was a kid, and I see it as overkill). I am sure most of this information is available outside of Wikipedia, and I don't see this as meeting the notability requirements for an article here. I don't think it's worth merging, since it would overwhelm the main article, and again such detail on such a minor topic, is overkill in my opinion. kelapstick^(bainuu) 16:08, 19 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep as the nominator suggests it is sourcable, even if not at this point in time. The reason to keep is that this could be useful in the James Bond Jr., but is excessive there, and so makes sense for a split. The other reason for keeping would be that some of our readers would appreciate the list. However there is also the question of whether this is a copyright infringement, as the same text is also on IMDB, Dailymotion and Wikia, but who copied who? Anyway if this is copied off other places then copyright infringement speedy delete is appropriate Graeme Bartlett (talk) 02:11, 21 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete This isn't needed; the show is pretty much "JBJ bumps into some awful evil, has to solve the evil, the B-plot has hijinks ensue, everything is solved and they laugh at the end". Keep the titles in the main episode article, but the plots are absolutely useless into having any understanding about the show. Nate • (chatter) 13:32, 27 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: It is pretty standard to have a separate episode list outside of the main show article if there are a large amount of episodes. Please check the Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/Episode coverage task force page for further information on these types of episode lists. Aoba47 (talk) 01:45, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The existence of episode list articles on other shows does not automatically mean that every show should have one, and really there should be a reliable independent source suggesting that a list of episodes is notable enough for a stand alone list. TV.com would not qualify, as user-generated content, neither would IMDB. I would say the threshold for inclusion should be lower for an article such as this than it would for other things, (i.e. the show is notable, so a list of episodes is a reasonable offshoot). In this case however I don't think the show is important enough historically/encyclopedicly enough to warrant a list article. --kelapstick^(bainuu) 19:52, 3 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - the list is too long to comfortably fit in the article, and since the show is considered notable, there's no reason I can see why not the have the list, since someone went to the trouble to create it already. TimTempleton ^{(talk) (cont)} 20:54, 4 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
