 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: I really don't think the fact that a TV character said he likes someone's writing is noteworthy information that should find its way into the biography of that person. Maybe if reliable sources found it important to mention, but that episode summary wouldn't be enough to establish due weight. &#8209;&#8209;Volteer1 (talk) 08:22, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

I am resubmitting my previous change with another source. I am attempting to reach consensus but I must admit I am very new to this. Add a section: “In Popular Culture” and add the following text.

On an episode of Seinfeld entitled “The Red Dot” (1991), the character George Costanza mentions that he’s a fan of Lupica’s writing during a job interview. Lupica has been friends with Seinfeld writer Larry David ever since this shout-out.

Remove the link from "Extra Credits", the title of the second book of the Peter Finley Series in Mike Lupica Works section. The link redirects to another "Extra Credits", a video lesson series about video games. Gcharlet (talk) 14:07, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
