Talk:Portal:Miscellaneous References
I added Gannon Car Rentals here, even though it's not really a real-world reference. Then again, neither is the Dragon of Kiso Mountain, "Yatta!", or Takezo Kensei, for that matter. Not really another spot for them, and not really enough to make another portal...yet. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 15:41, 9 July 2007 (EDT)
- Well seeing as Lost has the Gannon Car Rental brochures, it might be appropriate to add it to the "References to Other Works" portal. --Hero!(talk)(contribs) 15:48, 9 July 2007 (EDT)
- Yeah, I thought about that, but the article is about Gannon Car Rentals, not about Lost. It was also on Nip/Tuck. In actuality, Gannon is one of those corporation names reserved for use on television, kind of like 555 is reserved as a prefix for television shows. Using Gannon pamphlets is not a reference to Lost (as has been stated by both Tim Kring and Damon Lindelof numerous times). -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 15:56, 9 July 2007 (EDT)
- Heh, not directly related but do you know if 555-5555 reserved for tv taxi companies?--MiamiVolts (talk) 15:59, 9 July 2007 (EDT)

Maslow
Abraham Maslow
- The Abraham Maslow article is going to be deleted, but it's got an entry here on the portal. I don't usually update the portals, so what's the strategy for removing an item while still keeping the portal organized properly? Could a PortalMaster remove it from the portal cleanly for me? :) (Admin 02:20, 4 September 2007 (EDT))
