Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pop culture references to Sherlock Holmes (2nd nomination)
as an unsourced collection of #INFO|indiscriminate info.  Sherlock Holmes, though obviously noteworthy and depicted and mentioned often enough in various forms of media, should not be the subject of trivial listcruft.  Any important adaptations should be moved to the main article with the blanket "Holmes is important in popular culture, etc etc" explanation.  Other than that, 99% of this list is unencyclopedic.  In short, if his name is merely mentioned in passing in some book or TV show somewhere, it doesn't belong.  ''Anywhere
