Why are trivia entries about the name being a reference to General Norman Schwarzkopf being removed? Stormin' Norman was General Schwarzkopf's nickname. The name ALSO refers to the Normans of France, but there is no way the name is a coincidence. The preceding unsigned comment was added by President Barackbar (talk) • (contribs)

Disagree, a more likely reference would be the Stormin' Normans Horrible Histories book given the resemblance to the character depicted on the front cover. References to anyone called Stormin' Norman, without visual or text evidence (how the item looks, item descriptions) to back up the statement are debatable and rightfully removed. Trivia sections far too often contain poorly sourced/inaccurate statements simply added on the opinion/thoughts of an individual, rather than being backed up by hard evidence, and also with a number of others in agreement.

Well, the piece of trivia is back. It doesn't mention that he's nicknamed "Stormin' Norman" though. Anyar (talk) 05:24, 8 February 2017 (PST)
