Comment: Not enough content to justify having a separate article. Tutwakhamoe (talk) 01:11, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
Comment: I don’t think this article would be useless at all, as this article would contain more specific information and episode listing for the first series and the main Gladiators (2023 British TV series) would contain just general information about production, cast and overview to the series’. These two articles would then be totally different on the structures! 93.106.14.206 (talk) 17:00, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
Comment: Separate articles for each season will be useful when multiple seasons have aired such that the content grows too large for the main Gladiators (2023 British TV series) to handle. But it's way WP:TOOSOON for that. Even when the first season starts airing, it won't need a separate article immediately. After all, what else will the main article have to cover other than the one and only season? We don't need two separate articles that both cover the same one and only season. Bennv123 (talk) 17:26, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
Comment: OK. So then, when the series actually begins to air, we can find these kind of articles useful, right?! 85.76.105.111 (talk) 08:46, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
Comment: Why does the first season of a TV series that has not even aired yet need a separate article? Everything in this draft can already be found in Gladiators (2023 British TV series), and Wikipedia:Article size doesn't justify a split considering the main article has <700 words of prose. Bennv123 (talk) 07:43, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
