Is there going to be a place on VGFacts for trivia involving video games, but not actually found in a video game?

For instance, on the old forums Ginkaze and I found Video Game related trivia in the cartoon show Regular Show. Is there going to be a section on the new site where users can submit Video Game Trivia found in Television and Movies, or is it going to be something along the lines of "Only trivia found in Video Games is allowed on the site."

I guess anything like a simple name drop or pun shouldn't really be considered. If it's like a parody of a certain game and you have a reliable source to accompany it, then post it in either the game or series which it's related to.

What is the trivia/fact which you've found by the way?

Probably not. Something like the Billy Mitchell reference in Donkey Kong Country Returns would be alright, but since this is trivia related to a tv show it wouldn't really work, but this is just my opinion.
Ok, thanks. I didn't even know he was referenced in DKCR. You think they'd put more than his tie in the game.
KnowledgeBase is correct - that kind of trivia won't really fit in with this site.
