It's too much to have separate articles for each season of a soap with only local interest. Part of what is included here can be incorporated in the main article for Erotas and this could be deleted. User:Odikuas 13:50, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep consistent with treatment of other shows and with WP not being a paper encyclopedia. Would be prefereable to have these three AfDs joined. JJL (talk) 15:43, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Consider the fact that internationally famous soaps (The Bold and the Beautiful, The Young and the Restless) do not have separate entries for each season. Odikuas 17:13, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Wikipedia is an international encyclopedia and just because a program isn't well known in the US doesn't disqualify it from being featured in such articles, and especially for a soap opera season articles are preferable to individual episode articles. In response to Odikuas, that rationale is not really valid because it's just a variant of WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS. If there's no season articles for those shows, it just means no one's gotten around to writing them yet. 23skidoo (talk) 17:27, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep, this is a standard article fork. It could do with sourcing, but that's another issue (as it's plainly notable it's a cleanup issue, not an AfD issue). Other articles split their season summations in to pages like this, and have even gotten them to Featured List status in some cases; see The Simpsons (season 8) for such an example. Other shows that do this include Lost: Lost (season 1), 24: 24 (season 1), Smallville: Smallville (season 1). AllynJ (talk | contribs) 18:02, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep - editorial matter, therefore a waste of AFD's precious time - David Gerard (talk) 13:28, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Not a very good article, but other season pages exist. – thedemonhog   talk  •  edits  17:45, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
