[edit] Lilith in popular culture

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

A list of mentions isn't very notable. Like many other popular culture articles: this is just an ever growing massive list. The important items should be on the Lilith article, and leave it at that. I had prodded this, but it was removed for no good reason in my opinion. RobJ1981 06:05, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per WP is not a trivia collection in WP:FIVE Corpx 06:10, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
• Keep. Quite frankly, I fail to see why this is simply trivia. The fact that lilith have appeared in numerous works of fiction, music and games, illustrates the impact the lilith have had. "In popular culture" has for some reason become a dirty phrase, but why are liliths' appearances in relatively modern works less valid than Zeus's appearances in Greek mythology?

• Delete, definitely WP:TRIVIA for Lilith fanatics only. Yeah, Lilith exists and was mentioned in (insert reference here). But they're almost all vague references, which is why this is just plain trivia and indiscriminate. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps)))} 13:38, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, list of works in which Lilith appears or is mentioned, and in some cases isn't even the same Lilith. This article makes no attempt to discuss the topic of Lilith in pop culture. It's just a list without context. ɑʀкʏɑɴ 15:11, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
• Weak delete I was going to argue for keeping this article and cleaning it up to keep only substantial references or appearances of THE Lilith, the Lilith Fair one, and taking out the items that are basically "a character is named Lilith." Then I looked at the Lilith article (to which the list links) and apparently Lilith is also a demon and an owl and all kinds of other stuff besides just a human Bible character (I admit I found the article incredibly confusing at a glance), so my impression is that cleaning up the list would not be that simple.

• Delete no WP:RSes seem to exist that Lilith is a popular culture phenomenon of note. Carlossuarez46 19:13, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Disorganized notes. Not an article, will never be an article. Golfcam 19:16, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Lots of 'in popular culture' list articles are going, because anything worth a mention can go in the main article. This is the case with Lilith. It doesn't mean I'm anti-Lilith.:)
