This page is meant to be an extension of the International Broadcasts Wiki Policies where we inform editors of what the International Broadcasts Wiki administration considers to be "notable" enough to merit a page in this wiki. This is necessary to ensure that the wiki is manageable and that editors can properly collaborate together.
The International Broadcasts Wiki administration strives to have an organized website for visitors to read and having too many pages may make it harder for administrators to manage and improve the quality of the pages. While this wiki always welcome expansion, we want to ensure that new pages are worthy of being added to the International Broadcasts Wiki.
If a page you made was deleted, it likely does not fit this guideline. We apologize for any pages deleted without warning, but we hope you can understand the purpose behind this section of our policy. For more details on this policy, we encourage you to visit the policies page of this wiki.
Base guidelines[]
What is considered notable? In general, notable television shows, television specials, films, documentaries or events are well-known. They are mostly produced by production companies, distributed by film/television studios, broadcast on television or streaming services and promoted by mainstream media.
All content that merits an article on the International Broadcasts Wiki must be (a) well-covered by reliable and/or mainstream media sources, (b) discussed with much detail in reliable media, and (c) referenced or addressed by sources independent of the subject.
Special cases[]
While the aforementioned are base guidelines to what merits an article to this wiki, there are special cases to this.
Streaming programs[]
For programs released through streaming services, the program must be either be released on 3 or more streaming services or have 3 or more foreign language dubs on a single or multiple streaming services.
With regards to dubbing, the dub must be an official dub and not a fan dub. Moreover, the services that releases the program or the dubs must be an official streaming video-on-demand service and not a pirate site.
Deletion of non-notable content[]
The International Broadcasts Wiki administrators reserve the right to delete a page if there is no evidence to indicate its notability.
