Why this article deserves improvement

On this article's AfD page, I wrote:

The topic is notable for this reason: allusions to the Fibonacci numbers in writing or speaking on virtually any subject are widely understood.

Now the fact is, many of the items now listed on this page are not sufficiently notable to be a topic in an encyclopedia. That shouldn't matter here, since it is not necessary for individual instances of a mode of allusion to be notable in order for them to illustrate that the allusion itself is notable. But I think priority should be given to examples that do illustrate that. Michael Hardy (talk) 19:46, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Missing information

The Fibonacci sequence is included in the book 'House Rules' by Jodi Picoult, where the 18 year old Jacob, who has Asperger's, repeats the sequence over and over again whilst in a state of unresponsiveness. 58.170.32.197 (talk) 23:39, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fibonacci numbers are frequently used in knitting patterns to create stripe widths in proportions that are pleasing to the eye.
