Article about a race that was broadcast on television. The article lacks context and consists of a table, a very vague lede and no sources. No evidence of notability or encyclopedic value. - MrX 01:14, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete until notability can be established. I couldn't find anything on WP:SPEEDY for this article so I assume it has to go through the general AfD process. Also, a minor note, this is a program that hasn't actually yet aired on TV. It will air sometime in the spring of 2014 and by then, its name will start making the rounds when it gets close to the airdate and eventually become an article that passes WP:GNG. Until then, this is just an article of a table of nonexistant information. Antoshi 03:16, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete: This should fall under the {{db-hoax}} issue, as whoever made the page just copied stuff from the other existant articles to make this table for a cast that certainly isn't happening.—Ryulong (琉竜) 03:31, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Delete - Uh, not only is it crazy to call it "an obvious hoax" as csd requires, it's simply not a hoax. There is precedent for the article (see The Amazing Race 23 and every number before that, and even the most cursory google search turns up information that corroborates what's here. For example. However, it hasn't aired yet and the article provides nothing other than a list of the teams and a framework for what will be relevant for this article in the future -- so still delete. --Rhododendrites (talk) 04:45, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
