[WikiEN-l] Trivia/Notability tag?

[Ian Woollard]

Is there/should there be a notability tag?

It seems to me that just because something is true, and verifiable, doesn't
necessarily make it notable enough to be in an article.

Perhaps the real issue with trivia sections is that most of them are
unreferenced as to their notability; while they clearly may be factually
true, unless somebody has noted that they are important then they should be
removed. Right?

So, taking this to the logical conclusions, perhaps we need a notability
tag, where somebody has to reference that something is notable, otherwise it
would be removed. By notable, a minimum criteria would have to be a
significant 3rd party reference to it.

The nearest thing I can find are the various POV flags, which seem to be
more divisive and seem to imply the existence of  bias, which doesn't seem
to be quite the same.

Comments?
