Whap
AfDs for this article: 
 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Also nominated: Delete - per WP:EPISODE, no indication that the individual episodes of this TV series are independently notable. Articles are little more than plot summaries, in violation of WP:NOT. Text is closely adapted from the CBS site and may constitute a copyvio. PRODs removed from all articles by an editor who has made no edits outside Harper's Island articles.

 * merge Much better combined, since half each article is the cast list, and the major characters are   the same, except as the number diminish. DGG (talk) 01:21, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
 * There isn't anything to merge. The cast list is in the lead article and the plot summaries can't be merged if they're a copyright violation. Otto4711 (talk) 02:20, 19 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge to a new article titled Episodes of Harper's Island and drastically tone down the plot summaries as they are primarily in-universe. Then redirect all these to the new article created.  This is done for countless television shows. Ejfetters (talk) 02:22, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * or title is List of Harper's Island episodes that seems to go more in line of what is already on wikipedia. A small summary can be included but I agree with nom that there is too much in-universe plot info. Ejfetters (talk) 02:24, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * ok that article is already there I didn't know that, change my vote to delete per nom as these are redundant. Ejfetters (talk) 02:26, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Merge to List of Harper's Island episodes. Edward321 (talk) 21:43, 25 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge Redirect and add death lists and writers/directors to List of Harper's Island episodes similarly to most other shows that have episode lists, or merge it all into Harper's Island. --Closeapple (talk) 10:40, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
 * These articles cannot be merged because the contents of the plot summaries are copyvios. Otto4711 (talk) 02:15, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. Changed my wording: Move the basic per-episode data into List of Harper's Island episodes and merge the cast lists together in Harper's Island as one list with episode numbers next to each character when appropriate.  Dump the copyvio extended plots. --Closeapple (talk) 06:16, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Agreed. Merge in the format User:Closeapple has described.-- Gordonrox24 ''' &#124; Talk 16:08, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
