List of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex trivia
Contested prod. Original prod statement (by A Man In Black): "A lump of random things readers noticed in the show, completely unreferenced and speculative" with a prod2 (by myself): "Left over from "merge" but nothing was actually merged (duplicate info that originated on the other article), thus this article's history is not needed."

 * Delete. Pages of just trivia simply don't belong on Wikipedia. RobJ1981 06:25, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge with Main Article. Plenty of other pages include trivia, it's useful information, and I belive the only reason this was nominated is that Man in Black has a bone to pick with trivia for some reason.  Yzak Jule 06:29, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * He's got a bone to pick with it for good reasons. Trivia, by it's own definition, is not notable. Sometimes it's harmless to throw a little bit of trivia in an article, but other times it gets really out of hand, like here. See WP:TRIVIA and WP:AVTRIV. -- Ned Scott 06:34, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I think all the Salinger references and such are notable and worth having on here. There aren't individual episode pages to put this stuff on, so it's either move it over to the main article or leave it where it is. Yzak Jule 06:37, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Laughing Man (Ghost in the Shell) seems to contain all of the Salinger notes already. -- Ned Scott 06:41, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * That's true. How about taking out the Salinger references and integrating what's left into List of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex episodes? Yzak Jule 06:48, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as the original prodder. Where are the references for all these highly speculative claims? Without sources, no sense dumping this on already-troubled articles. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 06:52, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong delete prosify and intergrate the text into other articles. Trivia doesn't deserve its own sections, let alone an entire article. Hbdragon88 07:39, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Smerge into various articles. Pages consisting solely of trivia, even if about my favorite television series, are not necessary. &mdash;   Da rk Sh ik ar i   talk /contribs  10:47, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, no encyclopedic content. Combination 12:31, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. An example of the worst of Wikipedia and essentially a dumping ground for people too lazy to create actual prose. Interrobamf 14:35, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep or Merge. This list used to be a part of the main article, but someone took it upon themselves to create a seperate page.  I believe it shoud be part of the main article, as it used to be.--Salvax T - C --22:41, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * This is actually the same article the trivia has always been in. It was apart of a split and redundant article about the first season, not the original or "main" article. I removed the redundant parts and renamed the article. All the relevant trivia notes are already in place in their respective articles, there's no need for a separate trivia section. -- Ned Scott 23:36, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Since we're supposed to Avoid trivia sections in articles, it can be assumed that were supposed to avoid entire articles of them. If there were separate articles for each episode, I'd say merge, but since there isn't just delete. Koweja 23:03, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
