This article was already speedily deleted, apparently for lacking notability. The editor who created it originally reproduced the article, with no cites to support its notability. A Google search found nothing save a mention on the TV Tropes page hereWikiuserNI (talk) 16:22, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Stub article with no reliable secondary sources to establish notability. Might be worth including in an article describing stock plot devices. Uncle Dick (talk) 16:31, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Uncle Dick; also, has no inward links from article space. Talk page says "It's not a hoax. People talk about 'base under siege' all the time." - but it's not a term I've heard of, so I, for one, don't talk about it "all the time". --Redrose64 (talk) 17:09, 27 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete As I stated on the talk page of the article - while Bottle show is a term that has reached common usage this term has not. The TV tropes link provided by WikiuserNI only uses the more general term "Siege". It does not include "base under" anywhere that I could find. Thanks for doing the leg work on getting this going.
