In the Popular culture section, the Angel/Lorne item is at least slightly notable due to the issuance of an associated collectible item. Please provide citation to a reliable source when adding popular culture references to the list. Unsourced additions may be removed. --Tgeairn (talk) 17:09, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(I am aware that this section has been previously removed by another editor with the subtlety and class of imitating fart noises in a eulogy. That said, this section is pointless.) The vast majority of the entries here are bare mentions in shows/films. Their inclusion tells readers nothing about the drink. Imagine what coffee would look like if we listed every episode of Friends, Seinfeld, Saturday Night Live, every film with a scene in Paris...
Additionally, the source given for Angel/Lorne is appallingly weak. For openers, it is an archive of a blog post. Next, it's a bare mention: "Silver boots, ascot, and soft lemon suit are augmented with Lorne’s beloved Sea Breeze, cordless mic, champaigne* and bottle of magic potion..." Presumably, this tells readers something about boots, ascot, suit, cordless microphone, Champagne, potion, etc. (*I'd think "fact checking and accuracy" in a reliable source would have caught this.)
(I removed a cite to a copyright violation that confirmed the drink is mentioned in Scent of a Woman. Not much help for an IPC reference in any case.)
