Very trivial listcruft of many mentions and references. As I've stated in many AFDs of these pop culture/cultural references: condense the section in the main article. Don't just move it to a very cluttered and massive list of it's own. Hitchhiker's Guide is popular, but proving popularity by listcruft isn't the way to do to it in my view.

Very trivial listcruft of many mentions and references. As I've stated in many AFDs of these pop culture/cultural references: condense the section in the main article. Don't just move it to a very cluttered and massive list of it's own. Hitchhiker's Guide is popular, but proving popularity by listcruft isn't the way to do to it in my view.

  • Rename to "Cultural influence of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"; rewrite article to make it less list-like. Incidentally, some of these lists are really interesting; they should be transwiki-ed somewhere so they're not lost forever. Tlogmer ( talk / contributions ) 21:47, 13 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
