Avoid creating lists of miscellaneous facts. A number of articles contain lists of isolated facts, which are often grouped into their own section labeled "Trivia," "Facts," "Miscellanea," "[Subject] in popular culture," "Other information," etc. This policy deals with the way in which these facts are represented in an article—not with whether or not the information contained within them is actually trivia, or if trivia belongs in Wookieepedia.

  • Avoid creating lists of miscellaneous facts. A number of articles contain lists of isolated facts, which are often grouped into their own section labeled "Trivia," "Facts," "Miscellanea," "[Subject] in popular culture," "Other information," etc. This policy deals with the way in which these facts are represented in an article—not with whether or not the information contained within them is actually trivia, or if trivia belongs in Wookieepedia. Trivia sections should be avoided, but if they must exist, they should in most cases be considered temporary, until a better method of presentation can be determined. Lists of miscellaneous information can be useful for developing a new article, as it sets a low bar for novice contributors to add information without having to keep in mind article organization or presentation—they can just add a new fact to the list. However, as articles grow, these lists become increasingly disorganized and difficult to read. A better way to organize an article is to provide a logical grouping and ordering of facts that gives an integrated presentation, providing context and smooth transitions, as appropriate in text, list, or table.
