*I oppose deleting this article. The phenomenon of a "recurring segment" is admittedly a peculiar phenomenon in broadcast media, so the standard inclusion criteria are likely ill suited for addressing this type of content. For the sake of comparison, consider various recurring segments from ''Saturday Night Live'' ([[The Barry Gibb Talk Show]], [[Coffee Talk]], [[Sprockets (Saturday Night Live)|Sprockets]], and [[:Category:Saturday Night Live sketches|many others]]) or [[The Itchy & Scratchy Show]] from ''The Simpsons''. While references could be improved, I believe deletion is unwarranted in this case. — [[User:Hiplibrarianship|'''H<small>ip</small>'''L<small>ibrarianship</small>]] [[User talk:Hiplibrarianship|<sup>''talk''</sup>]] 04:05, 12 March 2018 (UTC)

On what basis? Can you show significant coverage by reliable sources? If not, this falls foul of WP:HARMLESS. --DanielRigal (talk) 00:15, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Recurrent segments are incredibly common in TV shows of many sorts. Only a very few are notable enough for individual articles, such as the ones you mention. None of those are subgames on a game show so they don't really help us here. For game shows it is more appropriate to describe the format, including the main subgames, in the main article and not to attempt to detail every winner or loser at all. --DanielRigal (talk) 00:15, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
