Talk:Distant Early Warning Line

message: Should there be a "Popular Culture" section that mentions the song "Distant Early Warning" by Rush?
:Yes.  Also things like the regular seasonal NORAD announcments that DEW stations had picked up an unknown object, apparently a fat man in a red suit and some reindeer, approaching North America.....Skookum1 (talk) 15:44, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Please. What part of a Rush song had a major cultural impact? Did it even make the Top 10? Not every trivial mention deserves inclusion. If you really believe it belongs, demonstrate the significance. Demonstrate the impact, with sources.  TREKphiler any time you're ready, Uhura  21:19 & 21:23, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

text: Personally, every time I see a "Popular Culture" section it's usually filled with trivial B.S. that has nothing really to do with the article it's a part of.   This one here is no different.  Bwmoll3 (talk) 03:37, 8 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: And everytime I see objection to these sections, it enforces the notion that Wikipedia is driven by a mentality of "my little corner of the world is sacred" and "the world is millions, if not billions, of islands unto themselves".

Initially, BarPac consisted of three WV-2 squadrons (VW-12, VW-14 and VW-16), but was soon consolidated into one large single (largest-ever in USN) squadron (date?) named Airborne Early Warning Barrier Squadron Pacific (AEWBARRONPAC).

thread_title:  Article issues 

message: Hello fellow Wikipedians. I haven't done any editing for some time, after my work was deleted for 'lack of notability' (or something like that) by Revision Nazis. Jimmy Wales has also had content deleted, so I guess I'm in good company. Anyways, I couldn't remember how to add links to other Wiki content, so if someone can assist, that would be great. References used included BING A.I. and https://lswilson.dewlineadventures.com/ which I corroborated with my own personal experience (which, I know, is considered worthless on Wiki).
