https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/23449/what-other-anime-are-referenced-in-the-first-cour-of-durararax2-shou

The user initially asked for all the references in Durarara for all seasons in a different question (can't find the question through the list of closed/deleted posts), which was closed by our moderator krazer with the too broad reason. With the suggestion of krazer to limit the scope of the question to a single season, the user wrote the two questions above.
Are the 2 questions above really too broad? How can we adjust the scope to make them on-topic?

user7579: (Based on my original comments on the question...)
I think these two questions should have remained open. If we have a reopen vote on them, I'll vote in favor. They do skirt the edges of reasonable scope, even split up by season, but they seem pretty comparable to Which episodes of Aria correspond to which manga chapter?. Granted, it seems I missed the point when I answered that question. The comments by kuwaly and Logan M indicate the question was meant to start a discussion on exactly this issue, and not really to be answered. But when I joined the site, the question was open, so I answered it.
I answered the Aria question by making a huge chart showing how each episode of the Aria anime corresponds to the original manga. It took me about six hours to make it, with the help of Wikipedia to aid my memory and some Emacs keyboard macros to speed up my typing. I don't know much about Durarara, but it seems like these two questions are of similar scope to the Aria question. If someone comes along who loves Durarara, and has a wiki reference and about six free hours, they could probably answer these. It might take a long time (a long, long time) before such a person comes along, but I don't think that's a reason to close the questions. After all, the Aria question sat open for over a year before I answered it.
