Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Perry Mason episode murderers
I don't really have an opinion on this, I can see benefit to inclusion but also agree with the arguments made against inclusion in the referenced talk page discussion. Zeus Maximus' effort to add this info to the existing list resulted in a mess, but I don't agree that the discussion about including the info ''there'' created a consensus to exclude this information from Wikipedia generally. The structure of Perry Mason episodes having a murder victim, a (nearly always) wrongly-accused suspect, and the eventual surprise revelation of the real perpetrator, I believe makes this information worthwhile to collect and document, in the same way that we have an entire separate article dedicated to the The Simpsons opening sequence|opening of ''The Simpsons'' and that each ''Simpsons'' episode includes information on its opening couch gag. As for sourcing, IMDb is unacceptable of course but I don't see why citing the episodes themselves fails , basically per . If anyone were to dispute that a particular murderer in the list was actually the murderer in that episode, they can verify by watching the episode, and any argument that the character in the episode named the murderer is actually ''not'' the murderer is nonsense ( is also applicable here). Lastly,  suggests that we don't remove information just because it might "spoil the plot" for viewers; I also highly doubt that a reader looking for a list of specific plot information on a show that concluded its run more than half a century ago can possibly claim to be upset for having plot details revealed to them
