This has been mentioned by a media organization:

Rhiannon Williams (2016-01-15). "The 15 strangest Wikipedia entries". The Daily Telegraph. Three Wolf Moon was such an iconic moment in internet culture that Wikipedia has deemed it worthy of its own relatively lengthy entry.

Notable wearers

Kassem G is the least notable person I can think of. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.94.167.141 (talk) 02:00, 16 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actor Shayne Topp has a character named 'The Chosen'. The character wears the shirt and the character's motivations seem to be partly based on the reviews and symbolism of the shirt Amber.vanraak (talk) 19:08, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Irony

An anonymous editor disputes the usage ironical. Please note the reliable sources provided which both describe the Amazon reviews in this way. Q.E.D. Colonel Warden (talk) 22:10, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Just because a BBC writer doesn't know what irony is doesn't make it valid. Alanis didn't know it either and yet had a hit song supposedly about irony (which is the only ironic thing about it). Please explain what's ironic about the SATIRCAL reviews? Do all OTHER shirts provide these powers and only this one doesn't?? Does this shirt make all women find you ugly and causes physical harm upon the wearer? All your "reliable sources" prove is that a lot of people don't have a clue about what irony actually is. --208.38.59.163 (talk) 23:00, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed that ironic is being used improperly, despite the source. M@$+[[@]] Ju ~ ♠ 07:09, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Irony (n.) an outcome of events contrary to what was, or might have been, expected. The use of the word "ironic" is okay. One wouldn't expect the reviews to be so preposterous and entertaining. Basically, ironic is being used as a synonym for surprising which is acceptable. Occamsrazorwit (talk) 03:39, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Three Wolf Moon Shirt Day

Yo PD Thor, step off the undo sucka, three wolf moon shirt day is in effect.

Older than the Amazon reviews

This kind of "Wolf Shirt" review dates back to January 2006, at least. Hyqeom (talk) 14:39, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Seconded. Of course, it'd be original research to mention this, someone needs to find a blessed source to cite that mentions that link. Hobart (talk) 17:27, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thirded. "Shapedoctor says...

I like this wolf shirt because wolves and shirts are shapes." Laughed hard, way before the Amazon version. Sad that the truth is little known. 00:12, 21 June 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2620:0:1000:110A:224:D7FF:FE9B:4C10 (talk)

ROFL: YOU made my day with this Wikipedia entry lol! That's what makes Wikipedia nowadays really useful: to give useless and unimportant crap information a stage. I say: wayne! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.148.31.189 (talk) 13:50, 4 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fourthed. "phazlay says...

Five stars for shizzle. I went from nerdy internet boy, to ladies man overnight. Thanks wolf sweater. " Et cetera. The original was http://www.birkoph.com/Wolf_tshirt.htm but that went dark, now you can only read about it secondarily. https://web.archive.org/web/20140826074531/http://www.birkoph.com/Wolf_tshirt.htm Sadly this was before internet memes were considered encyclopedia worthy. I believe all editors thinking as such were rounded up and killed in 2011. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2620:0:1000:147C:7:6F88:B48D:E1CE (talk) 22:27, 7 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No picture?

This seems like the kind of article that could really use a picture of what it's describing. Surely it would be justified here as fair use? Robofish (talk) 15:01, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"2009 Called"

Another reference is an xkcd.com comic, "2009 Called". — Preceding unsigned comment added by JohnWSaundersIII (talk • contribs) 14:51, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Office

In the "Niagara pt 1" episode of The Office, Dwight is using this and Michael makes fun of him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eduardopadoan (talk • contribs) 03:27, 4 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Popular Culture Section?

Would it be productive to add a section on the shirts appearances in popular culture to the page? I'm not sure if the Parodies and Attributions section is functionally the same, or if there is a way to lump them into one section.
