Merge

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

To not merge, as the programmes are significantly different, despite a similar inspiration; improve referencing. Klbrain (talk) 21:01, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

All three articles are very short and low on sources. As the previous incarnations were short-lived and garnered little attention, it would make more sense to merge all three into Pictionary (game show) and have the article cover all three incarnations, similarly to how Pyramid (game show) and Double Dare (franchise) cover all versions of those respective shows.

Scarily, both of those articles lack references. Most of the prose is the rules of the game. I say yes to a merge, but it will take referencing the 1989 and 1997 editions too. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 17:50, 11 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose because all three versions are dissimilar. The 1989 version is a standalone kids version that bears no resemblance to the later two versions. The 1997 version is, for all intents and purposes, a revival of Win, Lose, or Draw. As far as this article is concerned, I believe it needs a rewrite because there’s not much to it and it could use a little expanding. —ChrisP2K5 (talk) 18:55, 11 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It does needs some expanding, but more sources is needed to do so. OWaunTon (talk) 20:42, 11 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There could be better sourcing, for certain. Overall not the biggest issue at the moment.

Still don’t see need for full merger considering all three series are separate beasts. This isn’t like the Password Plus and Super Password situation (which, full disclosure, I put together) where the two formats are identical except for very slight differences. ChrisP2K5 (talk) 15:51, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, I tried the best I could for this, but there are sources from over a year just talking about the show. OWaunTon (talk) 18:25, 12 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose as per the reasons above the three shows are very different and a merge would not be suitable. Additionally, merging them together would not solve the sourcing issue. It would also create potential original reason if editors/IPs start comparing the three without sources. The articles do need further sourcing and expansion but a merge would not be suitable.
