Mozart's Requiem in popular culture
AfDs for this article:

Delete - This is a directory of loosely associated topics. The listed items have nothing in common beyond using a segment of a particular piece of classical music. This list tells us nothing about the Requiem (except that it's public domain and so free for movie producers to use), nothing about the fiction that uses the Requiem, nothing about how they are related to each other and nothing about the real world. Strongly oppose merging any of this into any other article on Mozart or the Requiem. See for precedent the deletions of similar articles for Adagio for Strings and 1812 Overture.

 * Delete - Trivia collection, WP:5 - Every time _______ was used/mentioned in a tv show/movie Corpx 15:07, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete all %SUBJECT% in popular culture lists, they are nothing but trivia and violate the five pillars of Wikipedia as well. Burntsauce 23:06, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete strongly...well..used/mentioned...pillars.  Although it does have a reference (nice addition), the Requiem doesn't have the universal appeal of other classical compositions, and its use in popular culture isn't that notable.  Mandsford 15:59, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
