Have you ever wanted to see the ultimate list of works where your favorite book, film or TV show was referenced or homaged? Website/TVTropes is a perfect place in which to create such a list, or to get as close as possible.

A ShoutOut is something subtle (a name, a prop, a dialogue from obscure cult classic) or something very direct (a TitleDrop or character names known to mainstream culture), which points to another work of fiction. Shout Outs are given intentionally, often because the creators are fans of the work. It can be used for LampshadeHanging when the characters compare themselves to concrete fictional characters.

TakeThat is a negative Shout Out when the creators want to emphasize how much something sucked.

Referenced By is a reversal of Shout Out and related tropes. It's never intentional for the work that is referenced, which is why it's listed as Trivia -- an interesting bit of information we like noticing, collecting, and organizing, but which in itself is not a trope. [[note]]There might be rare instances when creators have a pact of referencing each other's work in their respective creations. (To name one, German cartoonists Loriot and Peter Neugebauer.)[[/note]]
