Editing Mannequin (section)

==Trivia==
*Like Andrew Norton was not an intentional homage to emperor Nortan, Mannequin was not given the first name of Alan as an intentional homage to the musician [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Menken Alan Menken], who wrote the song Mannequin Attack.<ref name="I12c1">Yes. Homage. I totally know what you’re talking about.  🙂 - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/07/24/interlude-12/#comment-3192 Comment by] [[Wildbow]] on [[Interlude 12]]</ref>
*The word “Alan” also means “statue” in ancient Sumerian.
*Mannequin is referenced [[w:c:twig:Taking Root 1.5|in a chapter]] of [[Wildbow|Wildbow's]] later serial, Twig, where two dime novels appear titled "Doll Man and the song of the moon" and "Doll man and the revenge of the swarm queen".<ref>He opened a drawer in the desk, pulling out five more dime novels.  “Doll Man and the song of the moon?”<br/><br/>“Read it.”<br/><br/>“Doll man and the revenge of the swarm queen?” - [https://twigserial.wordpress.com/2015/03/21/taking-root-1-5/ Excerpt] from [[w:c:twig:Taking Root 1.5|Taking Root 1.5]]</ref>
**These titles likely reference Mannequin's run-ins with the [[Simurgh]] and [[Skitter]], respectively.
