::: I agree that trivia that can be integrated into the main article should be ''when possible'', but I definitely would not like to see a Wikipedia-style prohibition on this sort of material. Personally I enjoy reading these bits and pieces after I've watched an episode. Of course like everything else trivia should be policed from time to time for obvious nonsense, but I don't see the harm. Some trivia, though, might more appropriately go into the "rumours and myths" sections (such as the Partners in Crime example Tangerineduel gives above).

In practice, articles don't carry trivia sections anymore. Thus, [[user:Tangerineduel]]'s original suggestion carried, and [[user:23skidoo]]'s desire to keep some form of trivia section hasn't predominated. As someone has once point out — somewhere — the entire site is about trivia, so having a trivia section on articles is both redundant and highly subjective. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} | In practice, articles don't carry trivia sections anymore.
