[edit] Greenwaldian Theorem
I proded the article a while back, but it was removed and the page was moved to the title "Mathematics in Futurama". However, since January 20, there had been no attempts to expand the page and it was basically only about the "Greenwaldian Theorem" so I moved it back to that page. The "Greenwaldian Theorem" while it is supposedly accurate doesn't appear to have any notability (A google search gets 45 hits while a Google Books search gets zilch) and it's only notability is its brief appearance on a chalkboard in Futurama: Bender's Big Score.

- Hesitantly delete While the math is there, and it is an actual equation and mathematic theorem... the fact that it its own futurama based article is out of place. Is there any way that this equation could be an addition to the Pythagorean Theorem article, with a description about how it was featured on an episode of Futurama? That would seem to satisfy all parties... Queerbubbles (talk) 15:03, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
- It actually wasn't featured. All that happened was that it was written on a blackboard, it wasn't mentioned or discussed in the movie. Most of the information here comes from a DVD extra about Math in Futurama. I agree that if it is a notable equation, then perhaps it should be mentioned in the article for the Pythagorean Theorem. -- Scorpion0422 15:06, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
- Ahh, i didnt know that. ok then... Delete delete delete and put the equation in the talk for the phythag theorem article. Queerbubbles (talk) 15:19, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

- Delete as an article. Include as an item in "Cultural references in futurama" and/or "The Pythagorean theorem in popular culture." There is a reason for sections like those--precisely to deal with this sort of material. DGG (talk) 19:52, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
