In Fiction Is there a reason that the fiction section is edited down so heavily I would agree that that it is silly to list every single appearance of the pistol in every medium but I think it s appropriate to mention it s use in a hugely popular TV show like 24 The reason is that these sections tend to get out of control because they become trivia magnets i e every gamer and anime fan who passes by the article will have an urge to add all of his instances of the USP s appearances from his favorite video game or anime The result is a list of indiscrimnate trivia that doesn t add anything to the article So basically these sections are either being edited down or removed altogether from firearms related articles to avoid this issue Thanks for explaining and I can say that I definitely prefer this format to the long list I saw in the page s history In this particular case I think 24 is certainly as least as recognizable as the currently mentioned video games so I am adding it in but I won t include any other references and I do have several I love this gun The correct place for the information that any firearm appears in a film or video game is in the article relating to the film or video game with a link to the article for the firearm I agree with that and would like to add that there are two pages created to consolodate this type of information if users really need to add it somewhere List of firearms in video games and List of firearms in films The gun used by Jack Bauer in 24 is a SigPro not a USP Although Vincent in Michael Mann s Collateral notably uses a USP Jack used a Sig in season 1 and 2 but since then a USP Compact has definitely been his primary weapon Reference other sites such as Bauer Kill Count Regardless it has been decided not to put this information on the USP page I agree with Squalla This article needs to be about the actual firearm and nothing more Am I the only one who finds it a little odd that someone added Jack Bauer to the list of non fictional police agencies who actualy issue out USPs StarkeRealm 10 33 March 1 2007 Removed
