Talk:Politics in fiction
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Typical wikipedia article...always mostly from a western viewpoint. (comment from 80.227.100.62)
The biggest problem is that it is useless. It does not explain anything. I bet it was easy to create, and some Wikipedia editor probably displays it proudly on his user page, as part of a list of articles he has created from scratch. Isn't he good. The list does not distinguish between real-life politics and fictional politics; it does not distinguish between works that are about politicians, and those that are about people who are caught up in politics; it does not distinguish between works that are about High Politics (i.e. "Yes Minister", "Mr Smith Goes to Washington") and those that merely use politics as a backdrop ("The Dead Zone", "Murder at 1600", "Three Kings"). And of course it can't be sorted or ordered. -Ashley Pomeroy 16:36, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
