[edit] Artemis in popular culture

Artemis in popular culture (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Delete - another indiscriminate list and directory of loosely associated topics. The items on the list, drawn from multiple mediums, genres, themes and styles, have no commonality beyond happening to have a person or thing named "Artemis" in it, which may or may not be the goddess. To forestall the inevitable suggestion, oppose merging any of the information to the article on the goddess. Otto4711 13:41, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

• It's inevitable. Selectively merge at least a couple of the entries into the article on the goddess. For example, Artemis's appearance on Hercules: The Animated Series, voiced by Reba McEntire, strikes me as hardly trivial, or for that matter irrelevant to the article about the goddess. The use of Greek mythology in works of literature and fiction continues to the present day. Other entries may be worthy of inclusion at Artemis (disambiguation), and should be merged there. - Smerdis of Tlön 14:00, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
• Delete and merge any useful info. as above. JJL 14:30, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
• Merge, not with Artemis but with Artemis (disambiguation).RandomCritic 18:09, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
• Do not merge with Artemis: this is the article for modern works about the goddess; and Artemis doesn't need these. Move any of these that link to notable articles to Artemis (disambiguation) along the lines of chimera (disambiguation), and make a non-list article out of any entries actually significant in modern culture, which Hercules may be.

• Hey, what about Wild Wild West's Artemis Gordon??? I mean delete. Capmango 02:18, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
• Note: This debate has been included in the list of Popular culture-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 11:12, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
• Delete because this article is largely a list of indiscriminate trivia in disguise. Per directory standards, most of the entries are not famous because they have a mention of Artemis (like Bomberman 64). Per notability standards, the topic is supposed to be explored through "significant coverage" that address the subject of Artemis in popular culture directly, instead of extracting it from the firsthand observations of the editors themselves. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 15:48, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
