From the article: "it is unsurprising that the work, and particularly its first movement, should frequently appear in works of popular culture. This article is a listing of these appearances." Basically then, it could be re-named List of references to the Moonlight Sonata in popular culture, this is clearly an unmanageable list, that has a virtually unlimited number of potential items. The article appears to attempt to list every single time the piece is used as backround music in television, movies and video games, as well as every musical piece it has inspired. In addition, not a single item is sourced. Dr bab 12:24, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the claim that most or all of the statements in this article are "unreferenced" is deeply unconvincing. If you recognize the Sonata's music in a full performance, you can recognize a quotation of it elsewhere; pointing this out is not an original hypothesis of a kind that requires further referencing.
Major allusions, direct quotations, and derivative works by major artists of the Sonata probably belong in the article on the Sonata itself. If consensus can't be mustered as to which works deserve that sort of exposure, this should be kept. - Smerdis of Tlön 19:57, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
