Line 346:
::We sorta need a line that distiquishes between a topic that actually has gotten some level of "academic" discussion like the toilet paper orientation (making it appropriate for an article), verses some random list of X in popular culture which may often have sources in "listicle" article ("Top 10" lists) that give no "academic" element for inclusion. (I use "academic" loosely here, I don't expect journal articles, but I expect something more transformative on the whole of the topic from a reliable source). --[[User:Masem|M<span style="font-variant: small-caps">asem</span>]] ([[User Talk:Masem|t]]) 19:44, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
:: I agree with Masem. There are so many ambiguous lists being created by random journalists that may have zero specialty in the topic. It has to be recognized by multiple recognized media outlets IMHO.[[User:Blue Pumpkin Pie|<b style="color: #4682B4">Blue</b> <b style="color: #20B2AA">Pumpkin</b> <b style="color: #DAA520">Pie</b>]] <sup>[[User talk:Blue Pumpkin Pie|Chat]]</sup> <sup>[[Special:Contributions/Blue Pumpkin Pie|Contribs]]</sup> 19:49, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
::: Also, because I brought this up in the Badgers AfD, that we should distinguish fiction from folklore/legend/mythology as that is cultural that wasn't explicitly known as fictitious.[[User:Blue Pumpkin Pie|<b style="color: #4682B4">Blue</b> <b style="color: #20B2AA">Pumpkin</b> <b style="color: #DAA520">Pie</b>]] <sup>[[User talk:Blue Pumpkin Pie|Chat]]</sup> <sup>[[Special:Contributions/Blue Pumpkin Pie|Contribs]]</sup> 20:11, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
