thread_title: Criteria for inclusion

message: I've just discovered this page after posting to Talk:Mark Twain and would like to suggest a model for improving and expanding this list.  Last year while I raised Joan of Arc to featured article I created Cultural depictions of Joan of Arc, which has become a featured list.  Recently I also created Cultural depictions of Alexander the Great out of material that had been deleted from the biography article.  Since both biographies are part of Wikipedia's Core Biographies project it might be a good idea to standardize this kind of presentation.  The main difference is that I've included high culture such as public statues, plays, and operas as well as pop culture references.  The Joan of Arc cultural page is also formatted and referenced according to featured list standards.  Regards, Durova 18:50, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Cultural depictions of Mark Twain]]? 

message: Was Twain's voice ever recorded, or his mannerisms ever captured in an early motion picture film? If not, it would be worth commenting upon the fact that nearly all actors have portrayed Twain in the same distinct way, voice plus mannerisms. 70.20.169.235 (talk) 15:43, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not certain, but I believe people first began imitating the mannerisms of Samuel Clemens when he was still alive, so there is an established tradition of the imitation of his mannerisms, that descends from the original source, as it were.  Also, I'm nearly positive that Thomas Edison himself did, at one point, record the voice of Samuel Clemens.  KevinOKeeffe (talk) 20:40, 15 February 2015 (UTC)

message: Mark Twain has appeared at least twice in Lucky Luke graphic novels, namely as the paperboy Pip in The Daily Star and as gray-haired Samuel Clemens in Rantanplan's Inheritance

message: I'm new enough that I don't feel comfortable just deleting content, but, regarding the last item on the list (The street in Detroit, Michigan was named originally after him with Mark Twain that located on Detroit's North Westside): I assume it's referring to Mark Twain St. although it's not a particularly readable sentence. But more to the point, does a street named after him count as a pop culture reference at all? Bleemoo (talk) 18:01, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Street what? Grammar what? 

message: I recall there was a 1970s, made-for-TV film in which Samuel Clemens appears as a character (referred throughout the film as "Mark Twain"), about a transcontinental race from St. Louis (Missouri) to San Francisco (or the Pacific Coast, in any event).  But I can't seem to recall it name, or otherwise locate it.  But if anyone else can, please add it to this article.  KevinOKeeffe (talk) 20:36, 15 February 2015 (UTC)
