[up][up] They're not tropes, but the reactions other characters have to them might be. (That and stereotypes associated with them.)

Raven Hair, Ivory Skin is now at 11 points in the green, which is 10 points ahead of the 2nd-place option. I say it's time to rename this.

Calling the crowner. Do the swap.

[up] I don't know how to do the swap, though; and isn't that something that's supposed to be left to the mods anyway?

Hidden Faced Matt,

Feel free to PM a member of the staff (or even myself) if you have any questions about making the change. I would be glad to help if I could, but obviously mods know better about this stuff than I do.

That being said, I am still a bit concerned that Raven Hair, Ivory Skin will just encourage People Sitting On Chairs examples. I thought the idea of the trope was that it was about raven hair ivory skin being used as a standard of beauty.

When I started to try to do the rename the first time around, I found that some examples became fairly meaningless without the beauty part of the trope name. Basically, a character believing that someone is a Raven Hair, Ivory Skin beauty seems significant, but recognizing another person's hair and skin color is not.

I moved Black and White Beauty to Raven Hair, Ivory Skin. All we need is for a mod to move the discussion pages to that trope, so we lock this thread.

No discussion to move. Link to original YKTTW added.

Got a lock holler but:

Main/Black And White Beauty found on On 207 page(s). Once again, moving the page is a small part of doing a rename.

I fixed all of the wicks to Black and White Beauty and added Raven Hair, Ivory Skin on Renamed Tropes. It had no subpages to move.
