Just a collection of trivia about the show. I don't think it can possibly be reformated to resemble an encyclopedia article. Please do not suggest merging into The Simpsons as this page had originally been created by splitting off a section from that same article, which had gotten too unwieldy.

• delete this article, salvaging some of its lists into articles with more proper titles. mikka (t) 03:45, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete as collection of Simpsonscruft. In particular, delete without mercy any tidbit that begins with the episode production code! -- Saberwyn - The Zoids Expansion Project 08:44, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, but remove long, pointless "References to TV series within The Simpsons" section. Agree with Saberwyn; not everyone knows the production codes off by heart! smurrayinchester^{(User), (Talk)} 10:40, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - not encyclopedic. --Phroziac _. o º ^{O (♥♥♥♥ chocolate!)} 14:43, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - A Trivia article? On Wikipedia? Absurd. It should be gotten rid of. firenexx 23:11, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete, trivia. Pavel Vozenilek 23:24, 31 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep, Wikipedia was created to provide knowledge to anyone. Sure it's trivia, but so are many other articles. Infact, many are very trivial. I read this and learned a lot about The Simpsons. The references to TV series could be deleted, however. Don't care for it.

• Delete I'm a big fan of trivia, so my first inclination was to say keep it, but looking through the list, most of it is too trivial even for me. --Barista | a/k/a マイケル | T/C 09:53, 2 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
