176:. First of all, it is not indiscriminatory, but selective (it shouldn't list one-time gags, only major places). Second, it clearly indicates it is a fictional topic, not a real world one. Third, it is salvageable, and fourth, there are several books about precisely this topic. I don't think it's wise to start wiping all content Knowledge has on fiction. Having rebutted all "reasons" given for deletion, I think this does belong, although of course it could stand some pruning and cleanup.
404:
We can't Merge and Delete, that would violate the attribution parts of the GFDL. Besides, the Duff Beer and
Flaming's Moes have energy drinks that weren't produced for the the Kwik-E-mart thing. Or Radioactive Man which is a comic in the Simpsons and a real world comic based on the Simpson's comic.

per nomination. Simpsons cruft shouldn't be so wild here on
Knowledge. The Simpsons has been around long, and are very popular: but that doesn't justify all these plot articles on certain subjects. There is a Simpsons wiki for a reason. Move relevant information there. I don't think Knowledge's goal

Once all the non-notable items without real world sources are removed, and the items that are duplications of information covered in other articles, there wont be much of an article left and so the remaining information can be merged into appropriate articles. Duff Beer already has an article so
561:. Without any real-world references to indicate notability, this amounts to a list of fictional things which appear to be modelled on real-world items. There needs to be sufficient secondary coverage of the impact of these items to justify an artile about them.
531:- Please, do not delete this article has it seem this is a part of deleting campaign of the simpsons. With out this article and others, many people will not understand about information and background about these subjects. For nmore information,

Seems quite discriminatory to me, since it refers to products on well, the
Simpsons. What's indiscriminatory about that? And in this article, there *are* things here that exist in the real world....and there are articles on them.

For those who say this article can be cleaned up and there are published materials on this highly specific topic, I challenge you all to improve this article.

It has an iconic status in
Knowledge? I didn't know that was an inclusion standard. I thought things had to be notable, you know, in the real world.
476:
again, not the simpsons wiki and no real notability established for items in simpsons. We do not want a list of items by every TV show out there.

reliable sources can be found, and some of these products have actually appeared on shelves in real life, so its definitely notable. Tag it with
