Process for creating articles on tv episodes

All articles on tv must meet notability guidelines, which suggest that:

A topic is presumed for being notable when it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are in addition to the subject.

You have to bear this in mind when making articles, and it is likely that all individual episode of any television series won't be notable by itself, simply because there are inadequate numbers secondary sources available. Manual of Style (covering fiction) explains further:

When a write-up is produced, the subject's real-world notability needs to be established in line with the general notability guideline by including independent reliable secondary sources this will likely also ensure there's enough source material with the article to generally be comprehensive and factually accurate.

While each episode by itself might not are eligble for a piece of writing, it is ready that sources can be located to guide a series or season page, where every one of the episodes available as one season (or series) are presented one page. (See examples further down). Such pages must nevertheless be notable, and contain out-of-universe context, and never merely be a listing of episode titles or cast and crew: just isn't a directory.

After a while, many times that some episodes or story-arcs have enough real-world information to warrant their very own article. This kind of episode can be broken out into its own page.

Process

* Create page for your television PROGRAM.

Once there's enough verifiable information independent of the reveal, then:

* Develop a page per series/season, or a "Directory of episodes" page with every season/series.

Only if you have enough verifiable information from secondary sources about individual episodes, then:

* Create pages for outstanding episodes

Keep in mind that it is a simple guildeline. You can choose or without one.
