Albeit orbital only, the 2036 moonshot from "Things to Come" is missing. N.B. it happens by Linear Accelerator. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.108.27.26 (talk) 14:11, 4 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This page violates MOS:POPCULT in its entirety

[edit]

None of the entries are supported by sources discussing the overarching topic of Moon landings in fiction, as mandated by MOS:POPCULT. Community consensus is opposed to TV Tropes-style lists of appearances of X in fiction/popular culture/whatever with entries that are based solely on WP:Primary sources. Consensus is also opposed to basing the content of such articles on WP:Secondary sources about the works themselves, as opposed to sources about the overarching topic of the article (i.e. X in fiction/popular culture/whatever), which has been codified in MOS:POPCULT. This is something that has been discussed pretty thoroughly (the current text of MOS:POPCULT is the result of fairly lengthy discussion about how best to handle this kind of material). For some specific examples of TV Tropes-style lists being rejected in favour of prose articles based on proper secondary (and/or tertiary) sources, see WP:Articles for deletion/Far future in fiction, WP:Articles for deletion/Eco-terrorism in fiction, WP:Articles for deletion/Earth in science fiction (2nd nomination), WP:Articles for deletion/Space stations and habitats in fiction, WP:Articles for deletion/Supernovae in fiction, and WP:Articles for deletion/Neptune in fiction. The easiest solution, considering that the topic itself is covered by Moon in fiction#Moon landings, would be to merge all the properly sourced material there and then redirect this title. Since none of the material on this page is currently properly sourced, that would be equivalent to a WP:Blank and redirect. TompaDompa (talk) 12:07, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
