Kory: i will need to do some more testing to see if the 500KB should be lowered even more but either way everyone can relax because the database will not crash or implode in anyway due to page size so splitting pages isn't a huge priority and is just more of a suggestion. For pages that actually load slow, splitting the pages will help slower internet users navigate these pages better.
It looks like pages over 500,000 characters (html formatted, that is) are crashing the server when someone tries to edit them. programmer's whine
They need to be fixed, anyway. Way too big for one page. They need to be broken up into subpages of a reasonable size.
I'm trying to get better about communicating before big changes, so we'll let this one run for a while before taking the action. The server crashes do come under the heading of 'urgent', though.
another programmer's thing

Working on it for Super Weight. Already taken care of a few subpages (particularly the Video Games section, with quite a bulk of the index's entries) considering the amount of content.
EDIT: And also, The Nostalgia Critic and Team Fortress 2 accounted for.
EDIT 2: Oh, and Super Weight is done too!

Video Games and Chronicles Of Conflict are all wrapped up. Maybe we should have a new article report? The last one was over a month ago.

Wow. The top nine spots are all character pages. And looking over the thread, I don't think it's anything about being a character page that lends to not getting cleaned up, though a good number are video game character pages.
What's the current status of the Italian Wiki and the current purpose of those "Elenco Provvisorio" pages? I see a good number of red links...
I'll work on the character pages for Berserk, Gurren Lagann and Sengoku Basara later tonight and I'll bring up the Anime Theme Song Game page in the appropriate thread for the group to work on.
Imagine Rakan applying Calling Your Attacks to doing paperwork.~Anarchy Rakan for the hell of it COMMISSION THIS BRIDGE!~EHK
It's super effective.
I'll work on Headscratchers.Doctor Who 2005 Series and Headscratchers.Doctor Who 2010 Series. I've got an idea on that. Also, Characters.Doctor Who Companions And Supporting Cast.

Tsundere pet.
@864: "What's the current status of the Italian Wiki and the current purpose of those "Elenco Provvisorio" pages? I see a good number of red links..."
I think those are the proposed titles for the translated pages to be made under. You could ask in the Italian translation thread for them to be split into smaller ones.
Calling someone a pedant is an automatic Insult Backfire. Real pedants will be flattered.
Villain Song is done. Leverage, Angel, Heroes and Gush.Anime And Manga are up next.

I now go by Graf von Tirol.
I'll split the main page for Skyrim.

Adventure Time now sorted out!
I now go by Graf von Tirol.
Gonna work on Fallout New Vegas, but just wondering if I should make a separate namespace for FNV (i.e. FalloutNewVegas/TropesA-M and FalloutNewVegas/TropesN-Z) or not (i.e. FalloutNewVegasTropesAtoM and FalloutNewVegasTropesNtoZ), as I've seen it done both ways (er, waitasec).
