It is mentioned directly under "later editions" and the film series is mentioned under "related products", how much more were you looking for? BOZ (talk) 12:07, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Why is this section "reemergence in pop culture—on the Netflix series Stranger Things, whose main characters play D&D in a basement; on the sitcom The Big Bang Theory; or via the host of celebrities who display their love for the game online". Under Development history and not In poplar culture. Aojrocks (talk) 07:40, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In Popular Culture sections with lists of pop culture mentions are generally discouraged on Wikipedia. Instead, reliably-sourced "trivia" should be incorporated into the rest of the article when relevant. Of course, you'll still find these sections in some articles, but moving trivia has become a growing trend over the past decade or more. You can read more about it at MOS:TRIVIA and WP:POPCULTURE.

Additionally, that quote from the Los Angeles Times is focused on the contributing factors to the "game's resurgent popularity" so even if this article had an "in popular culture" section, the focus of the quote isn't really on what media the game has appeared in. The focus is on why are more people playing this edition of D&D which fits best as part of the development history. 16:48, 7 September 2024 (UTC) Sariel Xilo (talk) 16:48, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
