Talk:Cultural impact of the Falklands War

message: I'm removing this reference, as it is simply not substantial enough to merit inclusion. In the episode in question, the Invasion is cited merely to humourously highlight the fact that the episode of the Krusty the Clown Show being screened is a repeat, immediately after Krusty has remarked that viewers will not be able to tell that it is a very old re-run. It could just have easily have been a reference to a US Presidential election, a natural disaster, or any other historical event indicating that the programme was an old one. 
This list should only comprise of productions that are substantially concerned with either the Falklands War itself or the direct consequences of it. It should not be a list of every single passing or inconsequential reference that has ever been made to it.

message: BBC correspondent Brian Hanrahan on Word of Mouth BBC Radio 4 9 April 2007 exploring the language that arose from the conflict recalls this ancedote:
During the 1982 Falklands Conflict between Britain and Argentina British soldiers were ordered to stop referring to the islander community as "Benny's" (a reference to the fashion of Crossroads character Benny Hawkins). Shortly after this the soldiers began referring to the islanders as "Still" to avoid the restriction ie. "Still Benny's".
Impact of a lot of other words, yomp, exocet etc. discussed in some detail. Fluffy999 22:27, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: You're welcome to contribute with the article, the war left a big impact on Argentina and there are tons of references, but they aren't know in overseas or in the english-speaking community. If you can it will be helpful to expand it.pmt7ar (talk) 22:05, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

message: There is an entry for the Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis, but as described, the storyline involves the US and the Soviet Union. Although the war took place during the Cold War, neither the US or the Soviets fought in it, nor it was anywhere near the "communists vs. capitalists" thing. I don't consider the "very obvious parallels" obvious at all, an invasion of a island (meaning, the people can not flee as easily) and the resistance to an invasion are very basic warfare themes, so that "parallel" should be atributed. 
An unofficial mod does not mean anything, precisely because it's unofficial. With enough programming expertise, a shooter game can be turned into a mod for any desired military conflict, or even into a specific fictional military conflict from some movie.

replies: text: To clarify, the problem with the edit is that it is not in English. That text sounds like French. There is no problem in mentioning French bands (quite the contrary), but the entry should be written in English, briefly explaining who is that band (just the basic info, name and wikilink, style, modern or disbanded) and how did they address the conflict in their work Cambalachero (talk) 12:51, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: This is a bande dessinee - a comic book. Would only be worth mentioning in Falklands War in popular culture if thought sufficently significant. Buckshot06 (talk) 13:33, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
