Talk:Cultural references to absinthe

message: I've flagged this article as having multiple issues simply because several claims in this article need to be from sources other than the "absinthe community".  Not that there is anything wrong with that community, however, ad hoc webpages and potentially biased references do not an encyclopedia make.  Simply put absinthe was not the cause of and solution to all of the worlds artistic problems nor should an artists reference to absinthe be made out to be more important than it was.

message: What is everyone's opinion about setting up basic criteria for something to be included on this page so the additions have relevance and don't get out of control?
For example, a song about a girls eyes being the color of absinthe with no further mention or metaphor would be a no but a song about a girl being like absinthe, addictive but bitter would be a yes. --Ari 21:44, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: First off, the word 'absinthe' seems to be just used to make it more nonsensical; the site loses nothing if the word is replaced by 'calcium' or something. Second, you haven't demonstrated notability. Veinor (talk to me) 02:19, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Your classification of the spoon as nonsensical is subjective and how is this for notable? http://www.google.com/search?q=usb+absinthe+spoon —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Danzarrella (talk • contribs) 02:22, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

text: I agree with the inclusion.  Although it's odd and I'm not even sure if it's real, it does talk about absinthe, is an item used with absinthe, and has entered minor-popular culture by doing the rounds on a number of blogs.  The blog link should be a source instead of an external link  -- Ari 02:36, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think blogs really can count as reliable sources due to their unpublished nature. And I definitely don't think it needs an entire paragraph and an external link; take it to its own article and add a 1-2 sentence summary in this one. Veinor (talk to me) 02:40, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Inclusion criteria

message: I found an article on absinthe that says that Romulan Ale (from Star Trek) is based on absinthe:
“You have Romulan ale!” he shouted.
“S’cuse me?” I replied.
“In Star Trek, the Romulans drink a green liquor that’s illegal everywhere else in the galaxy. It’s based on absinthe.”
 
It is from this article: .
Every time I’ve seen it on the show it’s been blue, not green, as quoted in the article, but if someone can find a more reliable source to verify this, I think it would make a good addition.Scaper8 19:48, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Absinthe/Romulan Ale Connection

message: OK Guys I have done my part. Some one else can finish the movies and music sections. I think we should make this sub page a model for how to sub page out the large sections of the main article and trim the absinthe entry to a reasonable size. -nightcafe1  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nightcafe1 (talk • contribs) 12:52, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.
