References to polycephaly in popular culture

[edit]

Another questionable "in popular culture" list, basically listing random instances of "polycephaly" in film, TV, and....to some extent...mythology. Unless we start with one-leggedness in popular culture, I don't see the great notability. Bulldog123 16:08, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WT_? Of course delete it! WP:NOT#IINFO applies. Shalom ^Hello 16:22, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, purely indiscriminate list of loosely associated stuff... although, admittedly, I think it's interesting. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(((Broken clamshells • Otter chirps)))} 19:16, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Odd compilation, but since "polycephaly" is not a condition that occurs in real life (unlike one-leggedness), and since it is a little-used plot device, for obvious reasons, it actually works. Mandsford 00:15, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Polycephaly *does* occur in real life. Abigail and Brittany Hensel (warning to the squeamish) are a rare example among humans, but it's not unheard of in cats and dogs. However, the word used to describe it is unfortunate; the condition is not strictly one individual with two heads, but two individuals - each as separate intellectually as you and me - with one body.

Delete lots of things happen in real life, some are shocking, doesn't mean that there is a popular culture phenomenon about them. This is no different. Carlossuarez46 17:16, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
