[edit] Green Wing trivia

I have nominated this article because of the use of the word "trivia", which is defined by wiktionary as insignificant trifles of little importance, especially items of unimportant information. This puts the article in direct conflict with my understanding of the following Wikipedia guidelines:

  1. Articles title assumes that the information therin is trivial, violating NPOV
  2. If we are to assume that the articles information is indeed trivial then it is violating Imporance.
  3. Finally being that a trivia list is inherintly a list of random facts, this article is in violation of What Wikipedia is not.

Some or all of the information in this artile may be good however, it should be integrated into proper places within established articles. For advice on how this may be accomplished you might want to look at: Wikipedia:Trivia and User:GK/On adding trivia to the main body of an article. The_stuart 17:48, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

I guess that some of the material could be instead be included in the main article in other sections. There could be a, "Making off," section. Other articles have a, "Cultural Reference," section (For example, see The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy cultural references). ISD 20:13, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

I have now changed the page so it only contains cultural references. ISD 10:06, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
