Category:Pages Needing Cleanup
Pages in need of cleanup for one reason or another. To add a page to this list, put the {{cleanup|}}
template on the page, immediately after the Work, Trope, Creator, Useful Notes, or Just for Fun header. You can - and should - explain why the page needs cleanup by following the word "cleanup" with a vertical bar "|" and the reason the page needs cleanup.
These are subcategories of this category:
- Category:Characters needing descriptions

Pages Needing Cleanup, with reasons
If the "cleanup" template is inside another template, the reason will not appear on this list. Alternately, no reason will appear on this list if no reason was given. Pages with no cleanup reasons given should be looked at first, and either the cleanup tag should be expanded with a reason for the cleanup, the page should be cleaned up, or the cleanup tag should be removed.
A maximum of 500 entries will be displayed on the table.
This is a sortable table - click on the arrowhead icon in the header cell to sort on that column.
Page | Reason |
---|---|
00.jpg | Needs a more descriptive name. |
A Good Name for a Rock Band | Many subsections still have large numbers of unsorted examples. |
Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking/Other Media | These need to be sorted, then moved to existing or new trope subpages. |
Artsy Moon | There is a proposal to merge Artsy Moon and Weird Moon on the grounds that they are the same trope. Discussion is taking place in this thread. |
Attack on Titan (manga) | Much of this article reads as though it was written by a non-native speaker of English. It needs an edit pass to bring it in line with standard usage and grammar. |
Author Appeal | The "Unsorted" section needs to be reviewed and parcelled out into appropriate subsections. |
Axis Powers Hetalia | This page has both "Category:Seinen" and "Category:Shonen Demographic" - at least one of them must be wrong. |
Baby Got Back | Some examples on this page, and the page image, belong on Male Gaze, being less about the character's physical trait than on the camera or a character focusing on it. |
Back to the Future (film) | This page discusses both the first film, the film trilogy, and the franchise as a whole. It needs to be split into multiple pages. |
Band of Brothers (TV series)/Quotes | Are these quotes about the work or the trope? |
Banned in China | Considering how many of the examples under Canada were obvious to any Canadian editor as being incorrect, all of the examples here for all countries need to be verified. There's also dire need for a quality and context check as well. |
Battle for Dream Island/Characters | This character sheet is missing a LOT of characters and should be filled out. |
Bible Black (video game) | The description section needs an actual description of the work. Preferably one that doesn't violate Miraheze's Terms of Service. |
Blood+ | This page has both "Category:Seinen" and "Category:Shonen Demographic" - at least one of them must be wrong. |
Brave | Too much of this is written as though the trailer was the only source of information, belying its origins as an article written before the film's release |
Brewdening Love Expanded Universe/Fanfic Recs | All of the trope lists on this page should be moved to trope lists on the pages for the individual works. If the individual pages don't exist yet, please create them; Works Pages Are a Free Launch |
Brick Joke/Literature | Examples that were copied from the front page need to be checked for duplicates. |
British Accents | One of the embedded videos below is no longer available. A replacement should be found and used. |
CC BY NC ND Images | According to creativecommons.org, we can only use these as Fair Dealing images. Somebody needs to check every image here and ensure we are in compliance with copyright laws. Alternately, images that can be replaced with images that don't use a "ND" licence, should be. |
CSI Verse | How can this be "trope overdosed" if there are only five tropes on the page? Surely there are more common tropes between the shows. |
CatSmile.jpg | This is obviously a screengrab from a fansub. The show has been licensed - and licensed-rescued - in North America; it shouldn't be too hard for somebody to get the equivalent still from the legal release, then upload it here with better attribution (episode number, etc.) |
Caustic Critic | The "real world" and "in-universe" examples have overlap. Either separate them completely, or merge into a single examples list. |
Chicago (film) | This page indiscriminately merges the stage musical and its film adaptation, and even briefly explores the 1926 play and its two film versions. It needs to be split into at least two work pages and probably more. |
Chinese Funerary Customs | Needs to be reviewed, corrected, and expanded by somebody familiar with the subject. |
Chronic Backstabbing Disorder | There's way too much natter in the Real Life section. |
Chuck | The "Specific Episodes" tropes need to be moved into recap pages for those individual episodes. |
Clannad (visual novel) | Multiple creators are listed in the trope list. People are not tropes. These entries need to be incorporated into the Characters subpage. |
Common Time | We already have Uncommon Time to list songs that aren't in Common Time, and (as the description implies), this is Too Common To Trope. The "exception" examples here need to be moved to Uncommon Time and this page turned into a Useful Note. |
Con Lang | There are numerous examples of Wingdinglish here that should be removed (and moved to that page if they're not already there). |
Conspiracy Theories | Needs "de-recentifying" -- entirely too many entries reference "recent" events that happened ten or more years ago. |
Cool Sword | Numerous work names are unlinked or mislinked and lack italics. Some are potholed so they aren't visible when reading the text. And other issues such as spelling errors need addressing. |
Cosplay Fan Art | Most of the sections have been sorted by the title of the works of the characters doing the cosplay. Video Games and Western Animation need to follow suit. |
Covered Up | Examples are sorted three different ways on this page. Should we pick one and stick to it? |
Crossover/Fanfic | This page needs to go away. Instead of listing works here, please add the category "FOO/Fan Works" (where "FOO" is replaced by the original work's name) to the work pages that describe the fanfics. |
Crossover Ship/Image Links | What works are these characters from? Most of them need to be identified before the examples can be sorted by medium. (Since Real Life does not have a One Steve Limit, each character needs to be identified on each line.) |
Crossover Ship/Image Links | We need to pick a consistent format for entries, and stick to it. The format chosen by the person doing the page cleanup is "Person (work)/ Person (work): link" |
Cult Classic | Before this page can be redirected to the category list, work pages need to be written for the redlinks here. Works Pages Are a Free Launch. |
David Letterman | Late Show and Late Show with David Letterman redirect here. The show, which according to Wikipedia is called Late Show with David Letterman, should have its own page. |
Dbzteamshot-oneframe 1353.png | A replacement without the credits needs to be found and uploaded. |
Demonic Possession | The description needs a rewrite. Self-demonstrating articles are fun as subpages, but not as the main page. |
Department of Redundancy Department | Some examples have already been moved to subpages. For consistency, the rest should follow suit. |
Devilman | This page has both "Category:Seinen" and "Category:Shonen Demographic" - at least one of them must be wrong. |
Digimon | This page has multiple sidebars, which overlap with each other and seriously reduce the space for the main text on smaller screens. Either the sidebar text needs to be incorporated into the main description, or the sidebars need to be consolidated into one. |
Discworld/Quotes | Qutes from individual books should be moved to Quote subpages for those books. This is taking place as part of the overall cleanup of Discworld pages. |
Discworld/WMG | The WMGs that apply to only one book need to be moved to the particluar book's WMG pages. |
Doctor Strange/Characters | The character descriptions need to be taken out of quotation markup |
Donald Trump | Despite the warning box above, somebody has dumped partisan text into this article. We do not censor for politics, but that means both sides need to be supported. This page needs to be brought back to a neutral point of view and the focus of the page brought back to tropes. |
Dragon Age: Origins/Headscratchers | This is (still) the longest Pages Needing Cleanup page on the wiki; it should be split into subpages. |
Dual World Gameplay | The Video Game examples need sorting by game type, to match the Tabletop Game examples. |
Dustin Hoffman | The "performed in the following roles" section doesn't list any roles. |
Ear Worm | Some examples have already been moved to subpages. For consistency, the rest should follow suit. |
Everything You Wanted to Know About Changing Trope Names | This needs to be made more ATT-specific. There are references to TVT mechanisms like crowners below that have no counterparts here. |
Evil Sorcerer | There are too many examples needing context. All The Tropes is not a place to simply make lists; please provide a reason why each example is listed on this page that can be understood by someone who has never read or watched the work in question. "See episode seven" isn't good enough. See ATT:ZCE for advice on how to fix this. |
Examples Searching for a Trope | The examples that have found tropes should be removed from this list, since they're no longer searching for a trope. |
Fallout 4/Characters/Factions | Text in "blockquote" markup needs to be put into "quote" markup. |
Fandom Rivalry | There are many sections with idiosyncratic divisions between them (for example, "Miscellaneous" and "Other", or "Meta" and "Inter-Media") - they need to be brought into agreement with the standard sections used in the rest of the wiki. |
Fantasy Axis of Evil | The examples section needs to be sorted by medium. |
Fantasy Island | There are a lot of non-tropes in the tropelist. These need to be moved to the appropriate subpages. |
Fiddler on the Roof | This page needs to be split into one page for the stage production and one page for the movie. |
Filk Song | There are duplicate entries between sections, and entirely too many bare URLS that need proper pothole texts. |
Film/Nightmare Fuel | The examples on this page should be moved - not copied -- to Nightmare Fuel subpages for the works. (If a work does not have a page to make a Nightmare Fuel subpage under, remember that Works Pages Are a Free Launch.) Once this page is empty, it can be turned into the category Film/Nightmare Fuel. |
Film Fic | Examples Need Sorting... by the media of the characters, since the media of the settings is always "Film" and the media of the works themselves is always "Fan Works". |
Firefly/Fan Works | Which name are we using for the work - "Firefly", "Firefly (TV series)", or "Firefly (franchise)"? |
Five-Man Band/Other | The sections about identifed media need to be moved to their own subpages. The remaining sections need to be sorted alphabetically. |
Flashpoint (comics) | parts of this page say the book hasn't been published yet, while other parts say it has. This needs to be fixed. |
Flat What | As per the talk page: "The examples listed here are generally in need of formatting and curation, and at a glance reads like a list of "things the editor had this reaction to" as much as it does "actual examples of this reaction"." |
Freaky Friday | Waaaaay too many versions of this story are crammed into this page. Each version, starting with the novel, needs to go into its own page, and this should be turned into a disambiguation page pointing to them and the trope. |
Freezing | This page has a sidebar with information that belongs on the creators' pages, not here. Please create Creator pages for Dall-young Lim and Kwang-hyun Kim, and move the entries in the sidebar to those pages. |
Friendly Enemy/Video Games | Examples Need Sorting by genre. See All The Tropes:Creating a Page by Hand#Groups for Examples for the list of video game genres. |
From Beyond | Separate works require separate pages, especially one expounding on a short story. |
Fun with Acronyms/Real Life/Science and Technology | The page has multiple duplicate entries, which need to be consolidated. |
Fusion Fic | Examples Need Sorting. (They aren't all Fan Works.) |
Fuwa.jpg | This image needs to be re-uploaded, but the Wayback Machine captures of the file only go back as far as September 2012. A replacement image will work. The image was of the Full Metal Panic! character "Fuwa-senpai". |
Game Breaker/Other Media | Examples Need Sorting by medium (or, if they're all Video Games, by genre), then the various media (or genres) that have been identified need their own subpages of Pages Needing Cleanup. Examples that are not from media should go on Pages Needing Cleanup/Real Life (unless this trope requests no Real Life examples, in which case they should be removed). |
Gamergate | Many statements have been commented out by moderators. These commented-out statements need to be either re-worded to conform to the Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment, substantiated because they can be seen as actionable in court, both re-worded and substantiated, or deleted altogether. |
Girls Love Stuffed Animals | This trope is specifically stated to be Always Female. The male examples need to be moved. |
Going Postal (Discworld)/WMG | The WMGs for Discworld as a whole need to be moved to Discworld/WMG. However, since half of them already have sections on that page, they can't simply be copied over; they need to be incorporated into the existing text. |
Good Angel, Bad Angel | Examples that that don't play the trope straight need to be moved from the "Straight Examples" section to the "Subversions, parodies etc." section. |
Great Mazinger/Characters | Appears to have originally been written by someone for whom English was a second language, with numerous grammar and usage errors, such as verb tenses and subject-verb agreement. |
Green Eyes | Entries that simply point out that a character has green eyes, without saying how the eyes relate to this trope, need to be deleted. |
Guide Dang It/Video Games/Other Games | Video Game Examples Need Sorting by genre, then they need to be moved to the correct subpages of Guide Dang It/Video Games, creating the subpages if necessary. All The Tropes:Creating a Page by Hand#Groups for Examples has the usual list of subpage names. |
Halloween (film) | Tropes that apply only to one movie in the franchise need to be moved to pages for the individual movies. |
Harmony | This page has a Wikipedia-style "For this use of the name, see Foo" line at the top of the page. The Style Guide says to either move the line to the end of the description or to turn this page into a disambiguation page. |
Harry Potter and the Anarchy in the UK | This page has a nonstandard organization with a large amount of general information simply dumped list-style after the tropes. It needs to be reorganized and turned as appropriate into more main text, subpages and/or trope entries. |
Heavy Mithril | The examples under "Miscellaneous" need to be sorted. Then the sections need to be sorted. |
Her Child, but Not His | 1: The trope description assumes there are only two skin colours in the world. This needs to be brought into alignment with reality. 2: The page image is inherently racist and needs to be replaced. Please suggest replacement images on the talk page. |
Homosexual | MOD: This needs a thorough review to identify and mark misconceptions and inaccuracies. (Not "remove" - they need to be listed for historical context, but they need to be listed as being incorrect information.) The page is also outdated as far as non-USA perspectives are concerned. |
Honorable Hogwarts/Characters | This page claims that Real Life famous people are involved in this project. This needs to be verified. |
India | The description here ended with the paragraph "Note: A lot of the pages below are unfinished, so just go ahead and create/expand them if you think you can." At the very least, redlinks (in ATT style, not TVT style) need to be added to this page. |
Insanity Defense | The trope description is filled with Artistic License Law and needs a rewrite by somebody familiar with the topic. |
Intellectual Property Religion | Examples Need Sorting, preferably into "In Universe" and "Real Life" sections each with the usual sections by medium as subsections. |
Kantai Collection | This page indiscriminately mixes the game, the anime with its sequels, and various spinoff materials including a radio drama. They need to be split out into separate pages with a parent franchise page organizing them. |
Keanu Reeves | The "performed in the following roles" section needs to list the roles. |
Klingon Promotion | Too many examples go to four or more levels of bullet points. They need to be reviewed and natter removed. |
Koden Sentai Koukenger | This page doesn't describe a work so much as it mentions a work and then describes its relationship to other works. It should be reworked into a proper description of the work's plot and content. |
Kot 3377.png | File is missing and needs to be re-uploaded. The oldest copy in the Wayback Machine is from after the fork. |
Kyonyuu Fantasy/Characters | This is the longest Pages Needing Cleanup page on the wiki; it should be split into subpages. |
Large Ham/Film | "Other Hams On The Menu" is a mix of Hams by Work and Hams by Person. That's not kosher. The section needs to be sorted into at least two - Other Works and Other Hams. |
Large Ham/Film/Disney Animated Canon | Examples Need Sorting by film, please. Somebody who know where the examples that don't say which film they're from are from will need to do this. |
Listen to Me, Girls. I Am Your Father! | This page has both "Category:Shonen Demographic" and "Category:Shoujo Demographic". At least one of those has to be wrong - it can't be both. |
Literal Genie | The section headers need to be standardized. |
Long Runners | Someone needs to check all shows listed as still running to confirm that they are still running, and change the template-based running ages for those that aren't to hard text with their years of activity. |
Lorna Doone | This work has no description at all. It needs something in the way of a description - the infobox and the Source subpage cannot carry the entire load. |
Magnificent Bastard/Anime | Page image is JAFAAC. |
Magnificent Bastard/Anime/One Piece | Page image is JAFAAC. |
Magnificent Bastard/Literature | Page image is JAFAAC. |
Magnificent Bastard/Live-Action TV | Page image is JAFAAC. |
Magnificent Bastard/Multimedia/Disney | Page image is JAFAAC. |
Magnificent Bastard/Theatre | Page image is JAFAAC. |
Magnificent Bastard/Video Games | Page image is JAFAAC. |
Magnificent Bastard/Western Animation/DC Animated Universe | Page image is JAFAAC. |
Mahou Sensei Negima/Characters/Ala Alba Fighters | The headers need to be fixed. Things that are not headers need to be taken out of header markup. |
Mai gem tears.png | This show has been legally available on DVD in North America since 2008. Surely we can obtain a screen-grab of this frame that doesn't have fansubbers' subtitles plastered all over it. |
Malaproper | Self-Demonstrating versions are fun, but should be on their own subpages. The main page should be clear to read. |
Man-Eating Plant | Sections need to be cleaned up and re-sorted |
Mark Wahlberg | The "played the following roles" section doesn't list any roles. |
Mars Attacks: Simpsons | The original version of this article was written by the writer of the work being discussed. Other viewpoints are requested. |
Media Research Failure/Other Media | Examples Need Sorting by medium, then the various media that have been identified need their own subpages of Pages Needing Cleanup. |
Megane | Claiming that this is a fanspeak term is like claiming Urusei Yatsura is a doujin. The description needs to be fixed. |
Men Are Generic, Women Are Special | Needs better organization -- the mass of bullet points before the examples from individual works should be split up into more main text and sorted examples, as best makes sense for each. |
Mommie Dearest | There should likely be separate pages for the book and movie. |
Monogatari (series) | This needs to be split into multiple pages: Monogatari (series) for the franchise as a whole, and Bakemonogatari, Kizumonogatari, and Nisemonogatari for the individual works. |
Monogatari (series)/YMMV | This needs to be split into multiple pages: Monogatari (series)/Pages Needing Cleanup for the franchise as a whole, and Bakemonogatari/Pages Needing Cleanup, Kizumonogatari/Pages Needing Cleanup, and Nisemonogatari/Pages Needing Cleanup for the individual works. |
Monster | Somebody decided to be cute instead of following the standard wiki style. Adding entries shows why this was a bad idea. This page needs to be brought into agreement with the other disambiguation pages on All The Tropes. |
Murder Drones | This is described as being legally available on the Internet, but no link to it is provided. |
My God, What Have I Done? | This trope's definition is muddled; the main text and example listings can't seem to agree on what constitutes this trope. |
Myers-Briggs | Examples Need Sorting |
Mythology Gag/Western Animation | The Batman: The Brave and the Bold examples on this page need to be moved to the Batman: The Brave and the Bold subpage, if they aren't already there. |
Naomi Watts | The "roles" section does not list any roles. It's also woefully incomplete, according to Naomi Watts filmography. |
Naruto/YMMV | All YMMV tropes are subjective. Having a header "Subjectives" is pointless. What other problems are there with the headers? The headers need to be cleaned up by somebody who has seen the series and thus has an clue how to organize them. |
Never Mess with Granny | Far too many examples in the "Real Life" section are a decade or more old and are written as if they're the latest news. These need to be cleaned up and "de-recentified". |
Nightmare Fuel/Advertising | The examples listed here need to be moved to Nightmare Fuel subpages of the matching works, complete with Category:Advertising/Nightmare Fuel, and that category needs to be confirmed to be present on all of the subpages listed here. Once that is finished, then the description curently on this page can be copied to Category:Advertising/Nightmare Fuel and this page redirected to that category. |
Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot/Comics | This needs to be split into two, three, or four pages: any or all of Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot/Comic Books, Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot/Newspaper Comics, Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot/Web Comics. and Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot/Comedians). |
No Waterproofing in the Future | This trope is "vulnerable to water", not "cannot swim". Examples of the latter should be moved to Weaksauce Weakness or another more-appropriate trope. |
Noble Profession | The examples need to be moved into a separate section on the page. |
Old-timey 5172.png | File is missing and needs to be re-uploaded. The oldest copy in the Wayback Machine is from after the fork. |
Older Than They Look/Real Life | [when?], [when?], [when?], [when?], [when?]... Almost every entry has a particular celebrity's age as of... some time. Specific ages should be replaced where possible with the {{Age}} template so that they auto-update. |
Omegle | This is described as being legally available on the Internet, but no link to it is provided. |
Oscar Bait | The section "Oscar Bait tactics and examples (which have become rather confused) include..." needs sorting. |
Personality Conflicts | The description does not describe the work. |
Phantasy Spelling | Examples Need Sorting by medium. |
Planet of the Apes | The franchise needs a description. What are these stories about? (Presumably "apes on a planet", but what else?) |
Pokémon/Radar | Much of the "radar" entries seem to have been tropers taking the opportunity to write one-handed and just be generally weird, while other "legit" examples are overexaggerated. |
Political Stereotype | The examples section contains no examples from outside of the USA. Examples from other countries are requested. |
Pom pom 5773.png | File is missing and needs to be re-uploaded. The oldest copy in the Wayback Machine is from after the fork. |
Popularity Power | Some examples have already been moved to subpages. for consistency, the rest should follow suit. |
Precious | As of the creation of this category, Precious redirects to Push (novel). The two works need separate pages. |
Pretty Cure Lucky Shuffle | This is described as being legally available on the Internet, but no link to it is provided. |
Psmith 7293.png | File is missing and needs to be re-uploaded. The oldest copy in the Wayback Machine is from after the fork. |
Public Domain Feature Films | Before this page can be redirected to the category list, work pages need to be written for the redlinks here. Works Pages Are a Free Launch... but make sure that a link is correct before creating a page for it. (Our links are case-sensitive.) |
Punch Out/Characters | The content here needs to be merged with Punch-Out!!/Characters, then this page can be deleted. |
RWBY/Characters | Needs some reorganization to reflect the evolution of the storyline as of the end of Volume 8. |
Reflexive Response | Some examples have been sorted one way, others have been sorted another way. Examples Need Sorting, consistently. |
Required Secondary Powers | The examples section is too long. If you find an example discussing only one of the powers listed here, move it to the examples section of that power's corresponding page, if it isn't there already. |
Romeo X Juliet | The seiyuu need to be taken off the trope list and moved to the characters subpage |
Rooster-at-day-break 8879.jpg | A similar replacement image that doesn't have a copyright notice plastered across the top-left corner of the photo would be lovely. |
RudyWithHisPetSnake 2774.jpg | This file needs to be replaced with one that does not have a watermark. |
Ryu and Ken | The Video Game examples need sorting by game type. Fighting Games already have their own subsection; the rest of the examples need to follow suit. |
Sailor Moon/Characters/Main Cast | The "live-action only" tropes need to be moved to Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon/Characters |
Sapient Steed | The vehicles listed here need to be moved to Sentient Vehicle. |
Schedule Slip | Needs some rewrite. The main text describes this as if it were specific to web comics, and throws a small sop to other media. The description should be made media-agnostic. |
Scream (1996 film) | This page has info from the entire series placed here that should be moved to their appropriate pages. |
Shakespearian Actors | The actors listed under "Shakespearian Actors without their own pages here include" need pages. |
Shoujo Demographic | The description is littered with unverified assumptions and at least one statement that ignores the Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment. Somebody who has knowledge of the actual topic - not the fanboy definition that lumps "ヤングレディース" and "Redikomi" together under "Josei" - needs to review and correct this page. Please post any suggested update to the Talk page. |
Shout-Out | All of the examples need to be moved to relevant pages - they should not be listed in the category itself. |
Shout-Out/Film | These examples should be moved to Trivia subpages (or, if there are enough examples, Shout-Out subpages) of the listed work pages. Once that is complete, the resulting empty page can be deleted. |
Shout-Out/To Shakespeare | The examples listed for Hamlet need to be sorted. |
Side Bet | This trope is about characters paying off bets without any previous setup of the bet described or shown in the work. Examples about people making bets need to be moved to The Bet. |
Similarly Named Works | Each of the entries here need to be turned into a disambiguation page, and then removed from this page. This is a large task that can be done by many people; if you have time to create a disambiguation page or two, please do. |
Small Genres and Unclassified Literature | Not this page, but the pages listed here. These works need to be classified by genre. Category:Literature Genres lists the genres we already have categories for. |
Soft Desire | This page was written before the work was published. If you have or have read a copy of the work, please update this page. |
Space Friction | The aversions need to be moved from "Played Straight" to "Exceptions". |
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse | Has numerous grammar/usage errors including bad verb tenses, as well as spelling. |
Stargate: The Ark of Truth | The spoiler tags in the description need to be removed, as per the wiki's style guide. |
Stating the Simple Solution | A number of examples, like the ones for Buffy the Vampire Slayer, appear to have originally been written for Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? and still read as though they're on that page. |
Style Guide | This document provides inconsistent formatting advice, with some examples assuming the now-deactivated visual editor and others assuming the source code editor. Visual editor examples need to be rewritten for the source editor. |
Sylvester Stallone | The "list of roles" section lists the works, but not the roles. These need to be added. |
Taimanin Asagi/Characters | This page has multiple "bare" URLs pointing to offsite images. If those images still exist and do not voilate Miraheze's Terms of Service, they need to be uploaded here and linked to this page properly. |
Teacher-Student Romance | As per the discussion on the trope's Talk page, the Real Life examples need to be cleaned up. "To avoid this turning into Portal:juicy_tabloids, maybe limit to just the cases (whether proven or alleged) that inspired work(s) of fiction listed on the page (such as Letourneau). And perhaps para-scientific studies can be grandfathered in." Also, a short paragraph stating that this is how we are handling Real Life examples of this trope needs to be added to the trope description. Then the "No Real Life Examples, Please" category can be removed from the page. |
Teana's Travels | Amazingly, this is a fanfic series which did not die, but as of May 2020 has reached thirty-seven books. The list of "books" needs summaries for books 6 through 21, and new entries for books 22 through 37. |
Textcolor | |
Textcolor/doc | This needs to be re-written to use CSS instead of HTML, in order to take the pages that use the template off the "Lint errors: Obsolete HTML tags" list |
The 10 Doctors | This work has been "retired" from its website and is only available in downloadable form. Any links below that attempt to go to a specific page or panel will instead go to the site's top page, where you will no doubt see a page from an unrelated web comic. |
The Bard on Board | Examples Need Sorting. The section " A Midsummer Night's Dream" has been sorted. |
The Bechdel Test | Three examples are not clear whether they mention the Bechdel Test (and thus should remain here) or pass the Bechdel Test (and thus should be moved to the Trivia subpages for the works). Somebody who is familiar with each work needs to make the determination and either update or move each of these entries. |
The Can Kicked Him | A bunch of examples here are to be moved to Camping a Crapper, as the current trope has been changed from "died in the bathroom" to the more specific "killed with the toilet". |
The Cat in the Hat (film) | This page needs information about the story. The stuff about the cast and the box-office is nice, but doesn't tell us anything about the work itself. |
The Catcher in the Rye/Quotes | Who are Brian and Quagmire, and what work are they from? Their quote needs proper attribution |
The Daily Show | Jon Stewart redirects here. He has not been involved with The Daily Show since 2015. The person and the work need separate pages |
The Glasses Gotta Go | There are still some aversions and subversions in the "Played Straight" section - these need to be moved. |
The Greatest History Never Told | This page has problems with its clarity and/or focus. It needs to be rewritten or reorganized. |
The Guns of Shadow Valley | Needs a work page created for the category. |
The Legend of Korra/Characters | A quick glance seems to indicate that everything on this page might also be on the five subpages linked from this page. The duplication needs to be resolved one way or the other - either everything be moved to the subpages, or everything be moved from the subpages back to this page. |
The Password Is Always Swordfish | There are many examples missing the point of the trope. Delete any unfitting examples you find. |
The Simpsons (animation)/Recap | The redlinks on this page are in TV Tropes format. They need to be changed to All The Tropes format before being used. |
The Stinger | The article implies that "The Stinger" is not a real-world name for this trope. |
The Thirty-Nine Steps | Franchise tropes need to be moved to Richard Hannay the franchise page. |
The War of the Worlds (novel) | There are trope entries for some of the other adaptations, most notably the Orson Welles radio play, in among the novel's tropes, on this page and the subpages. |
The War on Terror | The organization of this page by Terror Alert Level results in a confusing visual mess. Among other tasks, the different examples sections need to be either unified or broken out into separate pages. The related tropes section needs to be made distinct from the end of the examples as well. |
Think of the Advertisers! | This page has Wikipedia-style citation footnotes. These should be changed into inline links, as per ATT:Style Guide. |
Those Two Guys | Character who are not examples of "the mundane Greek Chorus" need to be moved to more appropriate pages. (If all that can be said about them is that they're in the background, that's People Sit on Chairs - every story has extras in the background.) |
To LOVE-Ru/Characters | This list identifies five different characters as the protagonist of the story. At least four of those have to be wrong. Somebody who is familiar with this work needs to identify which character is the actual Protagonist and which characters are "merely" Major Characters. |
Trope Namers/Live-Action TV | These should be identified in "tropenamer" sections on the relevant work pages instead of being listed here. |
Trope Namers/Theatre | These should be identified in "tropenamer" sections on the relevant work pages instead of being listed here. However, Works pages need to be created to put the tropenamer sections onto. |
Two First Names | The examples are in a confused mess of groups - there is a section "Fictional examples outside comic books" that needs to be split into the standard groups (and the examples not from Comic Books that are in the other lists need to be added to the new sections), and there are female examples that are listed outside of the "Female Examples" section. The only section that doesn't need cleanup is "Real Life". The other sections need to be brought in conformity with the rest of the wiki. |
US and Canadian Comics | This needs to be turned into a category; there's no need for two separate pages with a lot of overlapping content. Many of the publishing houses listed at the top of this page will need to be given the category, to start. |
Undocumented Features | We really need to split the Trivia Tropes out to their own page someday. |
Unfortunate Implications/Other Media | The Real Life examples need to be removed, and the remaining examples need to be split into multiple pages by medium. |
Useless Useful Spell | Video Game Examples Need Sorting by genre (4X, FPS, Beat'Em Up, etc.), to remain consistent with the rest of the wiki. See the full list of genres here. |
Values Dissonance/Other Media | After the grammar check, the examples need to be moved to new subpages by medium, with "Board Games" going to "Tabletop Games", "Mythology" going to "Oral Tradition", and "Sports" going to "Real Life". |
VanityWhite 3 8173.png | This file needs to be replaced with one that does not have a watermark. |
Venom (comic book) | This page appears to be about both a character and the works that the character appears in. These should be different pages. |
Video Collage | The Other Wiki has a page for the supertrope to this trope, and their page has examples. Somebody with some time, please look through their list and see which entries can be listed here, even as redlinks. |
Villain-Beating Artifact | This trope is about items that can kill one specific character. Examples that say the item can kill more than one character should be moved to more appropriate pages. |
Visible Sigh | Many if not all of the examples listed here need context. All The Tropes is not a place to simply make lists; please provide a reason why each example is listed on this page that can be understood by someone who has never read or watched the work in question. "See episode seven" isn't good enough. See ATT:ZCE for advice on how to do this. |
Voat | As of late 2020 Voat is dead. This entire article needs to be rewritten to reflect that it had a decade or so lifespan instead of portraying it as a new alternative to Reddit. |
Walking Swimsuit Scene/Image Links | This trope is about wearing a swimsuit, not removing a swimsuit. Examples of the latter need to be moved to more appropriate pages. |
Wall Banger/Comic Books | Entries should be moved to the individual works' YMMV subpages (or separate Wall Banger subpages if there are enough examples). If the work doesn't yet have a Works page, remember that Works Pages Are a Free Launch. |
Wall Banger/Literature | Entries should be moved to the individual works' YMMV subpages (or separate Wall Banger subpages if there are enough examples). If the work doesn't yet have a Works page, remember that Works Pages Are a Free Launch. |
Wall Banger/Newspaper Comics | Entries should be moved to the individual works' YMMV subpages (or separate Wall Banger subpages if there are enough examples). If the work doesn't yet have a Works page, remember that Works Pages Are a Free Launch. |
WallyFaust 1361.jpg | This file needs to be replaced with one that does not have a watermark. |
Web Comics/Heartwarming | Some examples have already been moved to subpages of their respective works. The rest should follow suit. (If the works don't have pages yet, remember: Works Pages Are a Free Launch.) |
Webcomics Long Runners | Somebody who has free time, please contact the creators of the comics listed in the "Counts and status need to be verified" sections and ask how many comics there are. Getting counts for even a handful of these entries will help. |
Weird Moon | There is a proposal to merge Artsy Moon and Weird Moon on the grounds that they are the same trope. Discussion is taking place in this thread. |
Welcome Episode | This trope is "a single new member comes into an established group." As of the addition of this banner, every example lists only the single member, leaving off the group that the member is joining. The groups need to be added. |
What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs? | Examples which describe known, confirmed aversions of this trope should be moved from this page and its subpages to Made on Drugs. Remember that by the terms on that page, simple speculation (as in the case of the Book of Revelation below) is not enough to merit a move. |
What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs? | Some examples have already been moved to subpages. For consistency, the rest should follow suit. |
Whoniverse | This needs to be turned into a franchise page. |
Why Didn't You Just Say So? | The "two different tropes" on this page should each get their own pages and not be forced to share one. |
Wikia | This article needs to be re-written to provide a more balanced view of the site. Also, many tropes need to be explained to show how they apply to Wikia. |
Witch Girls Adventures | Tropes that apply to Witch Girls Tales need to be moved or copied to that page. |
World Tree | This trope is not "significant tree", it's "tree that binds the world together". Examples of merely significant trees (including the ones from Abrahamic tradition) – or of things that aren't trees at all – need to be moved to more-appropriate pages. |
Wouldn't Hit a Girl | The page image is a "Pretty Much JAFAAC". If you're wondering why, ask yourself "where's the girl that he wouldn't hit?" |
X-Men/YMMV | The information below needs to be distributed to subpages of the various works instead of dumped here in a pile. |
You Keep Using That Word/Less Pedantic | The exact same discussion of "calibre" appears on You Keep Using That Word/Moderately Pedantic and You Keep Using That Word/Less Pedantic. It should be removed from one of these pages - someone familiar with sidearms, longarms, and guns needs to choose which page. |
You Look Familiar | Although there are multiple sections of examples, their contents are inconsistently organized with occasional duplicates. Either the examples should be more carefully sorted and organized, or they should be consolidated into a single list. Please do not create subpages for this page until this page has been sorted. |
Youkai | Examples need sorting, both within each type of youkai and in the unsorted list at the end of the page. |
Younger Than They Look | Many of the examples in the Real Life section are firmly nailed to a year somewhere in the 2000s. Specific ages should be replaced where possible with the {{Age}} template so that they auto-update. |
Your Mind Makes It Real | The trope description states that this is a virtual reality trope. The examples indicate that this is a real life trope (for versions of real life that exist within the works cited). Either the non-VR examples need to be moved to a more appropriate trope, or the description needs to be re-written. |
