Jehovah's Witnesses in popular culture

Trivia collection, sometimes merely listing that Jehovah's Witnesses are mentioned in a particular work. Unacceptable per WP:FIVE Eyrian 17:09, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Delete per WP:NOT: "Wikipedia is not a directory of everything that exists or has existed". This is just a bullet list of every time a Jehovah's Witness has been seen. Punkmorten 18:14, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:NOT#DIR. This doesn't even pretend to be about actual appearances of JWs. Simply using the words "Jehovah's Witness" is sufficient to make the list. Hey, in high school I wrote a poem in the style of Ogden Nash about the JWs, maybe I can add that to the list! Otto4711 18:33, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, bad use of WP:NOT. Otherwise you could carry on to able it to everything under the sun. Mathmo ^Talk 00:17, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- And what, exactly, is your argument for keeping this then? Not that I actually care, I just wanted to point out you'd failed to make one since you're telling everyone else about there own. Crazysuit 00:57, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, So bad, this is almost a joke. I can understand some people wanting to keep other IPC lists, but this one is so vague and worthless in any sense that I am going to doubt the judgment of anyone saying "keep" here. Crazysuit 00:57, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Short meaningless trivia.--JForget 02:32, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete all %SUBJECT% in popular culture lists, they are nothing but trivia and violate the five pillars of Wikipedia as well. Burntsauce 17:12, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Remember the Land Shark skit on Saturday Night Live? And someone knocked on the door and said he was a Jehovah's Witness distributing the Watchtower? And Jane Curtin banged him on the head, and it was Garrett Morris, and he dropped all the pamphlets? Man, that was funny. Delete. Mandsford 01:04, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete no sourcing that Jehovah's Witnesses in popular culture is a notable phenomenon. Carlossuarez46 20:32, 2 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
