"Mr. Lisa Goes to Washington" essays

Notability Do these really need to have their own articles, and do they meet the notability standards? It seems to me that we could include the essays on the episode's Quotes page, which needs a makeover anyway. -- Mythigator 13:56, 17 May 2013 (EDT)

Yeah, I don't think these really need their own articles. They would be perfectly fine being on the quotes page. --Nick97 (talk ~ contribs) 18:34, 17 May 2013 (EDT)
I did a little more thinking about it, and I'm going to poke a hole in my own argument: I didn't get the same "not notable enough" vibe from Lisa's poem Meditations on Turning Eight, and I was trying to figure out why. Then I realized that it was because the poem was coming off like a song, and songs do meet our notability guidelines even if they're one-off items delivered in a practically throwaway fashion. By that reasoning, the essay articles SHOULD stay, since we have articles for songs that got a lot less air time than the essays. -- Mythigator 19:15, 17 May 2013 (EDT)
What if we just collected them all into one article? --Nick97 (talk ~ contribs) 00:49, 18 May 2013 (EDT)
