I mean, if a character quotes a line from a fictional work or real life speeches (let's say a character would say "I have a dream" or "Ich bin ein berliner", everyone will immediately associate those lines with MLK and JFK). But personally, I don't really see the point of sourcing every reference. Besides, the references are only put in the sections when and if a contributor understands the cultural references in the show. It would rather make sense if the trivia sections emphasize on templates to some extent. Not everyone understands what is in the cultural references, I have no idea what is MLK or JFK! Which is why the references would be educational in that aspect. Those who recognize them will write them down, those who don't will read them and learn something. Oh, and MLK and JFK stand for Martin Luther King and John F. Kennedy.
