Come now, giving credit to SI, and the listing later that Get Smart had one? This really need to be changed, unless anybody sees a reason not to. Mushrom (talk) 06:17, 4 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Even a wikt:shoe phone entry would not be sufficient. If one of your superiors uses the term, say as a metaphor either for urgent action or for something "needed" but unavailable, are you going to ask them to clarify, or try first to look it up, including nuances of usage like whether it's definitely fictional? Tom Clancy uses the term twice in Rainbow Six, and the first use, on p. 148, makes it clear (in the context that preceded it and to anyone who understands the difference between Ryan and Smart) that he meant a cell phone. (Also that some fictional spies watched Get Smart back in the day.) --Jerzy•t14:45, 25 June 2014 (UTC)Reply
