I was reading The Dev Team Thinks of Everything when I noticed it was on listed on the Videojuegos index. I assume this is a problem to be corrected(?). I'm not entirely certain how to go about doing so and I'd hate to further break things in the process. The Spanish index seems to be 90% redlinked Spanish articles with working links to English. Is the Spanish version badly neglected for lack of translators? Somebody make a bad index?

the spanish archive is moving at its own pace; this wiki is huge and we've only begun to make a dent on the major tropes.

the tropes in the VideoJuegos index are listed in spanish (most are redlinks). however, redlinks don't have descriptions, so someone unfamiliar with the name in spanish might not know what the trope it's supposed to be. that's why links to the tropes in english are added in parentheses. this is obviously a provisionary measure; as more tropes get translated to spanish, redlinks will disappear and the links to the tropes in english will be taken out. but it's going to take a while.

Is it actually useful to the Spanish translators for the English tropes to be indexed, or would it make sense to cover the page in [[/index]] / [[index]] tags to avoid confusing everyone else?

132 is the rudest number.
