The result was Early close. Previous AfD closed as keep only two weeks ago, there's no point rehashing this debate so soon afterwards. If editors want to merge to Media portrayal of lesbianism they can discuss that on the talk pages. Fences&Windows 00:25, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The terms of reference for this article (ie, the lesbian kiss episode is a new "sub-genre" of American television) are mostly based on an out of date article from The New York Times. This presents major WP:ONESOURCE and point of view issues, as the lesbian kiss episode phenomenon has been observed in Australian television for years now. I am sure it will soon appear in other countries as well.
I doubt these issues will be resolved by splitting the article into two separate lists for American and international television programs. My experience is that even one list would be difficult to maintain as more and more episodes which are rating stunts are added. Two editors who argued to keep the article in the first AFD are firmly against expanding the criteria for inclusion, say to include all lesbian kiss episodes which drew more than a million viewers. I feel the only alternative is to delete the article and use a category until more up to date sources are available. Ottre 05:33, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
