Wikipedia's huge section on Star Wars and Star Trek is really overboard, as there is a "Star Wars" wiki (Wookiepedia) and there is a Star Trek wiki (Memory Alpha) that would cover the nitty-gritty stuff about both subjects.

Agreed -- but perhaps we could do something ''better'' here. There are fans of Lucas's films, and there are scholars of film studies and cultural studies who could write a thoughtful, historically contextualized entry about these films which would be far more in-depth in its own way, and would not be redundant with fan-written wikis.

Before We Jump on the bandwagon
Before we jump on the "Wikipedia bandwagon" and call the attention of all the Star Wars fans, can we get some guidance on what's notable on Citizendium and what's not? I think a detailed article on Star Wars ad its impact on society is all that's necessary, with a prominent link to the "Wookiepedia" which would answer any further questions readers might have. Wikipedia's huge section on Star Wars and Star Trek is really overboard, as there is a "Star Wars" wiki (Wookiepedia) and there is a Star Trek wiki (Memory Alpha) that would cover the nitty-gritty stuff about both subjects.
