OK, one question here: Are we fine at closing this crowner, leave "only wrestling" vs. "all media" to a Single Prop and then decide a rename or Trope Transplant in another Page Action crowner?

[up] This crowner looks deadlocked, so that might help.

Calling crowner to make this wrestling specific.

Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.

OK, so basically we cut the non-wrestling stuff from the page and wicks and then we close this?

Also, I am still not convinced that this is objective. Most importantly, is X-Pac Heat deliberate or not? The latter case would certainly be subjective.

[up] Why not move the non-wrestling things to a new trope? As I recall, almost half of the page is non-wrestling.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

[up]I am not sure if we want such a trope - it looks like a Complaining page lays that way.

[up] That's a good point. How about keeping it in-universe only, then?

[up]Only if we have enough examples for that.

Well, the first thing that comes to mind is Statler and Waldorf. I also recall Homer pulling this on Flanders at least once, and Calvin on his teacher, and everybody against Zoidberg's attempt at a comedy act.

So yeah, heckling happens.

[up] It's not heckling in general (although we don't seem to have that, and perhaps we should). It's hating a character because you don't like the actor. That's pretty rare as an in-universe trope.

[up]OK, so how is this: Put all non-wrestling examples in a sandbox so that anyone interested in making something with them can have them, cut them from X-Pac Heat and then close this?

[up]Made it so on X-Pac Heat and Sandbox.X Pac Heat. Tackling the wicks now.

Would it bother you terribly if we de-folderfied the Pro Wrestling section? Aesthetically, (IMO) articles with descriptions longer than the examples look bad.

Edit: Especially when only one medium is allowed.

[up]No.

Just working throught the wicks. Oh, and a sample at the usage makes me less inclined than ever to 1. make X-Pac Heat objective or 2. make a non-wrestling Audience Reaction for that.

And I just got all the non-wrestling wicks removed.

From this wick cleanup I see that the only "trope" we could make here would be about reality shows, but every other non-wrestling usage is complaining, sometimes crossing over into stealth personal attacks.

Will add to discussion now.

And done. Added note to discussion.

If anyone wants to get something from the non-wrestling examples, they are on Sandbox.X Pac Heat.

Done here and lock-hollering.
