Removal of season summaries edit

Recently a significant amount of this content was suddenly removed for cleanup per WP:PLOT. While I agree that much of this effort aligns with WP:PLOT about indiscriminate collection of information (such as trivia), I disagree with removing all the hard effort behind summaries as this provides important back context / history that impact the work today. More importantly, WP:PLOT reads as discouraging summary-only articles without encyclopedic content, not the inclusion of summaries itself. ("Wikipedia treats creative works in an encyclopedic manner, discussing the development, design, reception, significance, and influence of works in addition to concise summaries of those works.)

If summaries be arbitrarily removed here, that throws numerous articles on works of fiction - many containing series / seasonal summaries - into dispute. If the length of the article is in question, rather than removal, alternatives is further refinement of the text (per MOS:PLOT) or placing seasonal information on it's own page (as characters were). I am open to starting the latter effort to help refine this main page, but at this time I question if the amount of information warrants it's own entry until more details are able to be gathered on back seasons.
