We could go through and nuke all the ones that just shout something. Or dump them on the discussion as X Just X.
Fight smart, not fair.It would seem we have a cleanup project on our hands.
Rhymes with "Protracted."*looks*
Oi. That page gives me a headache.
I guess the simplest thing (other than just nuking them) would be to unpothole the titles in any case where its just the name, and turn it into "Title: NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME", and hope someone comes along to expand on ones we don't know.
Oi does not even begin to cover it. That page looks like one long in-joke. I wonder if we put it on Natter Alert if that would help?
All the Fan Myopia lately is really starting to depress me...
I'm not sure if Natter Alert is what we want - it's not natter, specifically, that's a problem.

This thing seems to happen a lot in tropes which are defined by someone saying something. Or memes.
Things like this are why I ctrl-f on a trope's edit page if I can't find it the first time. It's so annoying.
Also, would it be helpful to remind people that making the word EXTREEEEEEEEEEEEEMLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY long does not help us read what it is?
It's a headache.
And of course it messes up Ctrl + F too.
Maybe just turn it into one of those "NO EXAMPLES PLEASE" tropes.
There comes a time when one must decide: should I set that on fire, or not?Or just switch the potholes to work names and then the quotes. We did it with Big Word Shout for the same reasons on this thread.
I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.I did that for the anime and manga section. I don't really have time to do any more right now, though feel free to tell me if you think it looks better this way.
Yeah, much better.
I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.I made the potholed work titles in the Live Action TV folder visible as well, hope that's okay.
I got the Comic Books and Film sections.
Theater, Video Games, Web Comics, Western Animation and Other is done as well.

This seems done. Can we lock this up?
I found out that Say My Name is one of those articles where it's pretty tiresome to move the mouse over links to see in what work the name gets shouted out loud (I don't know all the works listed there) since the work names aren't directly written. Moreover, in most cases, it's not even described why the name gets shouted out loud even when it doesn't have spoilers. I wonder what to do...
