[up]I double checked the subpages. The majority of them weren't examples. But, would these be considered as examples since they occur during shower scenes?

* In Code Geass, Kallen gets one barefoot closeup per Shower Scene.

* Slayers: One episode features a close-up of heroine Lina Inverse's bare feet as she undresses for a shower.

* The Eye (American remake): Jessica Alba's feet are featured in a shot of her stepping out of the shower.

* On Glee, Sixth Ranger Sam's first appearance shows him singing in the gym shower, including a shot of his feet while dancing. It goes nicely with his general averseness to wearing clothes.

* Another instance of a shot of bare feet being used as a stand-in for full nudity: the Whos The Boss episode where Tony accidentally walks in on Angela in the shower.

Copy the remaining examples into a sandbox for whoever wants to make tropes out of them. Remove all wicks.

Yeah, I would agree with that, although I won't have time for such an effort anywhere soon.

[up] The wick removal, you mean? That could be put in Short-Term Projects, no?

So, will it be okay to just turn Foot Focus into a redirect for These Tropes Are Made for Walking instead of waiting for the Bare Feet Mean Nudity YKTTW?

Frankly, yes.

Also, I have no idea why we keep holding onto a YKTTW that is picking up examples so slowly.

Yeah, there's no point on clinging on to a YKTTW that's clearly not growing. If anyone wants to to take care of it they can but we don't need to rely on it for this thread. So, if there aren't any objections, I'll turn Foot Focus to a redirect for These Tropes Are Made for Walking in the next 24 hours or so.

I turned Foot Focus into a redirect for These Tropes Are Made for Walking and cutlisted all of it’s subpages. I’m too tired to do any wick cleaning though.

^ You missed Foot Focus in the list of related subtropes, though. tongue Zapped that entry.

[edit] Also, went through the wicks up to "An-", not a one of them anything other than the common misuse of FF as "shows bare feet for fetish value".

Anything further to be done here, aside from wick cleanup?

I'll see what I can do, then. Gonna work from Z backward, since I know Macron's going from A forward.

I'm midway through T, myself. Haven't quite reached articles starting with "The", however, where there are tons (for fairly obvious reasons). Gonna take a break while I go get dinner.

So you guys still trying to make a trope about shots on the feet? I understand these tropes are about feet but we still need one about when the camera either lingers on feet or feet are shown to the audience.

It all good, just try to keep it that way. Neh?

My understanding is that's exactly what Foot Focus was, and it was deemed not a trope.

Shots or closeups of the feet are not a trope in and of itself unless they symbolise something or tell you something about the character. I believe Foot Focus was originally about fanservice shots of the feet, which Male Gaze already covers nicely. Eventually, Foot Focus became broad enough that it was thought to not be a trope and got split into actual tropes like Bare Foot Poverty and Earthy Barefoot Character.

Finished up with T, finally. There were a damn lot of Ts.

I see you're picking back up on C.

EDIT: S, R and Q are done. (Quentin Tarantino was kind of annoying to work around, though, since I don't want to downplay that infamous aspect of him...)

I think I'm gonna take a break. Been over an hour straight of nothing but wick cleanup.

I finished C-E and half of F (and also cutlisted all of Foot Focus's subpages because I forgot to do it earlier). I have no idea what to do with Fetisch-Treibstoff, so I left it alone.

I took out anything below PJ, save for some locked pages.

Barring locked pages and one Troper's page, this is done.
