Methaqualone in popular culture

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Excessive unreferenced pop culture trivia; while sources could likely be found for some things on the list, I think that Methaqualone doesn't have the same representation in media as something such as marijuana, which has a rich cultural impact. Waxworker (talk) 18:29, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete or Merge There's already a section on Methaqualone covering the cultural interest. It's crucial for a secondary source to say "Methaqualone plays an important part in X, and the significance is Y" for each entry, but as it stands it's a trivia list for all these 'trivial' mentions.

 * Delete basically a case of original research in which editors lobbed together every minor mention that could be found anywhere. The whole thing is a relic of the early wild west days of Wikipedia when there was no sense of notability or sourcing. There is no real sign of notability here at all.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:26, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - A list of trivia that does not contain any real reliable sources covering the topic. It is essentially a list, and as such, completely fails WP:LISTN.  Rorshacma (talk) 00:08, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
