Talk:The Mystery of Al Capone's Vaults

Untitled

 * Since it appears the Pop Culture section has been resurrected by popular demand, I'd like to bring back a few Pop Culture examples from historical versions of this article that did not make it to this current version, yet are well cited. Four examples in particular - the Time Magazine article, the Titanic reference, UHF movie, and Colbert Report. See this version for details. --Mfactor (talk) 04:42, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Can we bring back the "In Popular Culture" or some equivalent section? I feel these sections if cited properly are highly relevant to any Wikipedia article.  It appears as though this section was deleted because it was a "miscellaneous list of information" which I feel many readers would disagree with, especially considering the qualified heading.  Examples of people, places, ideas and events making it into our vernacular are highly relevant, bring the article to life, and provide examples of well formed metaphorical diction.

 * There is some confusion as to the date the program was originaly aired. This article mentiones April 21, however on the April 21 page, there is no mention.  Furthermore, it is mentioned on the April 14 page.  The IMDb link does not mention a specific date.
 * Date is from here. I'll move the mention. Staxringold talkcontribs 06:42, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I believe it is appropriate to have "trivia" sections to provide context for vernacular expressions originating from pop-culture. I object to the reference at the top of "In Popular Culture" which suggests a lack of relevance.  To many people this provides the best path to understanding and usage.

 * There was also Al Capones Other vault. I'd like to see it added if at all possible. It ended up being a marketing thing for Canadian Club whiskey, but people waited for 30 days for them to open the vault. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.6.55.254 (talk) 10:17, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

"Vault" or "Vaults?"
IMDB says "Vaults," as does a YouTube video of a promo for the show... 98.232.36.172 (talk) 04:16, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
 * This is verifiable. I'm moving the page. Shiggity (talk) 04:24, 9 September 2010 (UTC)
 * No link was provided to a Youtube of a promo, and neither Youtube nor IMDB is considered a reliable source. Numerous books use the "vault" singular title, such as: 'Television Talk: A History of the TV Talk Show" by Bernard M. Timberg and Bob Erler, University of Texas Press, 2002, ISBN-13: 978-0292781764, page 143. See other book and magazine results which give the singular title:, , , , , , , , , , . I found no result at Google Book search which used the plural . It looks like the title should be singular, so I will move it. .Edison (talk) 20:05, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
 * The books all agree in retrospect that it was "vault," but I checked the NY Times TV listing for the night of the broadcast and it said "vaults" (	TV Programs Today ,New York Times (1923-Current file) New York, N.Y.: Apr 21, 1986 pg.  1.  ISSN/ISBN:		1673494 	Document ID:		119252912)	as did a Chicago Tribune article about the broadcast (TV tidbits...   Chicago Tribune (1963-Current file);     Apr 24, 1986;      p. 28;    1 Page. ISSN/ISBN:		9757782 	Document ID:		1086805312).  An AP story from April 1986 also used the "vaults' title. What is truth? In the broadcast they only opened up one concrete wall, with a rectangle of timed charges, revealing a void with some dirt and empty bottles.  Edison (talk) 20:36, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
