• The Village. I can't work out what this is. Maybe someone else can. It's been on cleanup for a long time. DJ Clayworth 23:30, 1 Dec 2003 (UTC)
  • Delete. It's source text by George Crabbe. Maximus Rex 23:34, 1 Dec 2003 (UTC)
  • Keep, I've deleted source text and took article in different direction -- The Village in The Prisoner. Fuzheado 00:07, 2 Dec 2003 (UTC)
  • Move it all into the article The Prisoner. Hardly a good "use" of the term "village" - Marshman 08:50, 2 Dec 2003 (UTC)
    • The Village is indeed already described in The Prisoner article. However, I disagree that the term is somehow wasted on the reference in The Prisoner. We have pages on far less significant topics. Fuzheado 14:28, 2 Dec 2003 (UTC)
      • True, but usually not with such common words as "village". Now every Google search for some Named Village will present this as one result unless confined in quotes - Marshman
        • I can see that sometimes it's worth taking account of google searches, but in this case I don't think we should allow ourselves to be swayed by the results of incompetent google searches. The article should be kept or deleted on its own merits - if it's worth having, then it's worth having even though it sometimes gives a false hit on some google searches.

  • Keep due to effort by various people. Onebyone 13:07, 3 Dec 2003 (UTC)
  • Delete. Drop into The Prisoner. Not worth its own entry.
  • Too ambiguous. Delete or rename The Village (The Prisoner). When I hear "The Village" I think of and NYC neighborhood. Davodd 04:44, Dec 6, 2003 (UTC)

Disambiguation and/or merging is still an option, but doesn't require the use of Vfd. -- Oliver P. 17:09, 7 Dec 2003 (UTC)
