In popular culture
Please read this guideline: Wikipedia:"In popular culture" content. There are two points to take away from this. First, a reference must be significant, we do not include mere mentions in pop culture sections or lists. Second, the reference must be notable, in the sense that it can be sourced to an independent secondary source. We do not source pop culture items to the media in which they occur. Thanks for you attention to this guideline. Yworo (talk) 14:24, 8 November 2012 (UTC)

Silhouette
Put your image into Commons properly catergorised as a silhouette. The images get rotated. Everybody who owns a cameral has at least one silhouette shot and everyone wants it in the article. Amandajm (talk) 11:32, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

Dark Enlightenment
Please read Talk:Dark_Enlightenment - this was discussed just a few months ago and ended up being rejected. You could start another discussion to move it of course, but I think reasonably it'd require a discussion and consensus - David Gerard (talk) 22:38, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
