Goblins and (Possibly alleged) Anti-semitism
editConsidering it's recent prevalence, there should be a section at least on it's alleged anti-semetic nature/origins even if there is no source to prove this as fact. Either way, it being anti-semetic or not, the topic should be raised in the article.

Requesting an addition to the “modern fiction” section of this entry with the following paragraph:
In December 2023, Goblins were depicted in Dr Who as mischievous creatures who create accidents and seek out and feed off coincidence, with the ability to travel in time. Source/reference: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt28289422/plotsummary/?ref_=tt_stry_pl Gblewis81 (talk) 08:12, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
Note: IMDB may not be a reliable source because it is a tertiary source, but am unsure. Any other sources?
