Gibraltar in popular culture

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Currently on hiatus from AfD, but got a few of those 'deprod per WP:DEPROD' summaries in my watchlist. This is a synthesis of "minor mentions in notable works" and "non-notable works with more than passing references", and if it were trimmed down to major appearances in anything significant, it would be a permastub at best. The collection of examples here is not natural, sensical, or in line with WP:LISTN/WP:LISTPURP. Vaticidalprophet (talk) 23:04, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep/merge These things are usually spinoffs from the main topic and so the worst case would be merger to Gibraltar which is currently meagre. It is easy to find general sources about the topic such as Gibraltar – 'an emblem of waste and loneliness' and Writing the Rock of Gibraltar.  And there was the huge amount of fuss about the TV show, Death on the Rock. Andrew🐉(talk) 00:06, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep or merge to parent topic, of which it is an obvious subtopic. postdlf (talk) 01:13, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge reliably sourced entries to Gibraltar. The article cannot stand on its own but those entries that are sourced can be mentioned in the parent article. WP:TRIVIA should be avoided. IceWelder  &#91; &#9993; &#93; 09:09, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Perfectly valid spinoff article. Won't all fit nicely in the main article, so valid content is spinout to a side article.  https://www.cbsnews.com/news/almanac-gibraltar/ Gibraltar looms large in our popular culture as well.   D r e a m Focus  12:26, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

 * someone's pet WP:OR project, was this commissioned by the Gibraltar Tourist Board or something? are we going to create one of these for every country next? It's absurd. Acousmana (talk) 22:02, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * "Was this commissioned by the Gibraltar Tourist Board or something?" Funny you say that... Vaticidalprophet (talk) 13:20, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
 * ha, OK, thanks! I did not know this, interesting. Acousmana (talk) 16:16, 9 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Merge to Gibraltar, right now it is an example farm and crufty spinoff.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 17:20, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to Gibraltar as per all above. Cuoxo (talk) 18:43, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Blocked for UPE, sockpuppetry. MER-C 18:11, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge as a stand-alone article this suffers from XKCD 446 syndrome. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 18:24, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge per power~enwiki. Archrogue (talk) 18:30, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge selectivey as suggested. Bearian (talk) 15:52, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge: Article needs to be expanded beyond a list, but the subject is notable. I don't think it meets LISTN, so if someone wishes to merge sourced content into an appropriate target I have no objection. If someone ever decides to recreate this as an article instead of a list, the material can be recovered from the history.  // Timothy :: talk  20:29, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
