<small>An article about a [[nonfiction]] topic should only contain fictional references of historic importance so as to not overshadow the main topic. Interesting but not historically significant details should be moved to a separate article (possibly [[:{{NAMESPACE}} {{PAGENAME}}s in fiction]] or [[:{{NAMESPACE}} {{PAGENAME}}s in popular culture]]). Mere references unimportant to the overall [[plot (narrative)|plot]] of a work of fiction or [[trivia]], as well as minor examples when more significant ones have already been mentioned, should be deleted.</small>

This template is a self-reference. This template is not useful for Wikipedia:Subst.

This template is for use when a nonfiction article has become overcrowded with too many references to fiction or other pop culture. (Ex.: Article on horses having a long section of TV shows, movies, video games, etc. that have horse in the name or feature horses in some way.)
