[edit] Sci-fi References made by Anji

Should or could there be a page made detailing the various references she makes throughout the novels? I generally find these fun as I'm sci-fi geek, and wouldn't mind the prospect of including these things therein. Personally, I think quotes should be included with the things referenced, for example:

• Pokémon

'The Collectors,' explained the Doctor, 'are a race of aliens
who roam the galaxy in five-mile-wide supercruisers built from
planetary debris, which park over planets and release swarms
of short-range fighters which lay those planets to waste...'
'Is foulest lie!' the creature exclaimed again. 'Is never we do
that thing!'
'You don't?' the Doctor said. 'I'm sure I've seen it happen.'
'I think you might have got that from a movie, Doctor,' said
Anji, by which I gather she meant a form of
entertainment on her world consisting of a variety of Magic
Lantern show. 'Like that time you were convinced that Pokmon
really existed, and were part of an evil mind-control plot by the
industrial-military complex to subvert the infant pattern-
recognition reflex with junk data.'
'Well, you have to admit,' said the Doctor, 'I was right about
that.'

...That prolly would have been better condensed, but you get the idea (more-or-less).DrWho42 10:04, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

I think that really crosses the line into fancruft. It's okay somewhere else, but not really appropriate for Wikipedia. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 01:46, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
