It's a useless list, non-notable, just trivial cruft. It's not even that long, with only 10 different shows and 14 separate references. The only page that links to it is the main Grey's Anatomy page. • 97198  talk  09:52, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete You have to watch a LOT of television to do a list like this one. This type of IPC very rarely survives deletion.  It's useless even to fans of the show, essentially, a list of acknowledgments.  Mandsford 15:12, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - directory of non-associated topics. Any popular series is going to end up being referenced on other series. Lists of times someone says "McDreamy" or "Grey's Anatomy" or whatever on any other TV show ever...and people wonder why "...in popular culture" articles have such bad reputations.

 * Keep, although not a show I watch, this referenced and well-organized list does demonstrate the intense influence this popular show has had on popular culture. Sincerely, --  Le Grand Roi des Citrouilles  Tally-ho! 18:22, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. The reason I created this article was due to WP:SIZE. Now that I think about it, it was really pointless as this article contains trivial information. So, I'm not going vote to keep or delete, rather, merge would be preferable.  σмgн gσмg  22:10, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Changed it to Delete as per nom as well as WP:TRIVIA.  σмgн gσмg  04:34, 2 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete as listcruft and trivia. /Blaxthos 23:56, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Merge not really enough for a separate article. At last some of the individual items are relevant content for WP--the specific references of one notable show to another are encyclopedic content.DGG (talk) 01:17, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete and do not merge. The article is trivial and just cruft. RobJ1981 04:19, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment. I never once said I hated the article. So that I don't like it nonsense doesn't apply here. I could throw a similar thing at you: the "I like it" page. Many of your keep votes are clearly liking the subject, and not giving proper reasons to keep. RobJ1981 06:25, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Perhaps instead of debating about who is using bad arguments we could discuss the article and just give good arguments. The poor ones will be obvious. DGG (talk) 08:14, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete reference in a TV show in another TV show is not notable--Victor falk 14:26, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:TRIVIA, too minor of a topic for a in pop culture article. do not merge. Jbeach56 21:17, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Heres one that definatly does need to go. Artw 23:43, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete NN as a topic, also, per wide precedent of deleted "In popular culture" articles Dannycali 20:17, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete I agree that some television programmes might be so seminal/important/well established et cetera that they might just warrant an "in popular culture" article, but I don't think we can claim notability of such an article for one as far down the scale of importance as Grey's Anatomy.
