I was unsure about gender-bait, simply because I don't know enough about a) the extent to which the concept Gibson's phrase describes is in itself notable (could deserve article) and b) where it should be merged to - Pattern Recognition, Crossplay (cosplay), Gender bender?
As for the other story elements, Cyberspace, Megacorporation, Intrusion Countermeasures Electronics and Raygun Gothic have probably gained enough traction outside The Man's work to merit their own articles. As for Molly Millions, she appears in Johnny MnemonicNeuromancer and Mona Lisa Overdrive, making it undesirable that she be merged in there. The Sprawl describes the setting, not the characters, so the only real place for the Molly Millions article to merge to is the Sprawl trilogy article. However, from the background reading I've done in referencing the William Gibson article, she has attracted significant academic and critical attention as being a strong, male-independent and archetypically cool cyberpunk heroine. Similarly, Tessier-Ashpool, for its length, is an extremely interesting standalone article which would have to be seriously truncated into a few lines if it were to be merged into Neuromancer. Hubertus Bigend deserves a shot at development, and would look wildly out of place in the (as yet) stubby Spook Country article.
Hubertus also appears in Pattern Recognition, hence hard to merge. (Your sentence beginning "The Sprawl..." appears to be splitting apart the 2 sentences concerning Molly Millions ;) --Quiddity18:39, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You just can't comprehend the vastness and intricacy of my analysis, so I dumbed it down a little ;) Good catch on Bigend, I swear I have tunnel vision from reading Spook too much. Skomorokhincite18:55, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
