[edit] Notable examples in fiction

I removed this text:

“

Notable fictional character wearing it: Kenny McCormick - in "Good Times With Weapons" Akatsuki members - in Naruto

”

While I understand the reasons for inclusion, this kind of thing has caused difficulties in many articles. First, who decides what is 'notable', and second, the hat is so common that in time the fictional references may crowd out the factual ones, which is not desirable in an encyclopedia. - Mcasey666 20:44, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm interested in the aerodynamics of this hat. Specificalliy I wonder if the conical peak makes turbulence that would help counteract any airfoil effect tending to pull the hat off the wearer's head. P Goodwin

[edit] Picture Included In This Article

I believe that the main picture included in this article is a silly example that takes away from the seriousness of the article. Mainly the expression of the man's face is what I believe to portray the aforementioned silliness. I move for a replacement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.170.225.240 (talk) 05:31, August 25, 2007 (UTC)

• I agree, but we would need a free-to-use image. I suspect that a wiki user took a picture of himself for that one. We'd need someone to take a less goofy picture. 151.197.27.164 00:40, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
