Category:Articles with fictioncruft has a few articles that appear to fall under the category of popular culture and seem to be similar to many that have undergone deletion. Just informing anyone here who can make the effort to seek deletion for these as well. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 15:36, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I assume you mean, to delete the articles that cannot be improved. Deletion is the last resort. DGG (talk) 22:20, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A good place for sourced discussion and commentary is The Journal of Popular Culture. From this page, we can see that it has been published since 1967. There is a free issue available at the moment to those who don't have a subscription to back issues (like me). It is the February 2007 issue. It has an example of Harry Potter and the Functions of Popular Culture. (Warning: after a certain time has elapsed, this 'free' issue will likely become 'subscribers only' again).

The Journal of Popular Culture's archives can be searched through Google Scholar, and if you find something relevant you can probably get the actual article through WikiProject Resource Exchange or the Newspapers and magazines request service. (Don't ask me what the difference is between those two projects, because I'm confused about that, but either would probably work.) —Celithemis 09:10, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
