By the way, the pop culture thing is just because the younger people that come around want to write about what they care about, and well, alot of them don't care about much but pokemon, or green day :) Just give them space if you don't like it.

For an example see [[Yggdrasil]] which has a large Popular Culture section and a disambiguation entry, both of which could be summarized with "a bunch of things in a bunch of games/novels/etc. have been named after the mythological Yggdrasil".
I was about to cite the "Popular Culture" section of [[Space Shuttle program]] here, but it seems someone finally decided to purge it last month, and create [[Space Shuttles in fiction]]... it had grown to a truly silly size - http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Space_Shuttle_program&diff=186...
[[Space station]], whilst no-where near as long, has a section which basically seems to consist of "X work of fiction contained a space station". The potential for expansion of this, given the prevalence of articles about sf books and individual TV episodes, is not a cheering one... time to purge a little, I think.
