Yeah, that description is ridiculously long and exclusionary. All it really needs to say is "Cel Shading is an Art and Animation style wherein rather than using gradients to suggest lights and shadows, colors are segregated into boxy 'cels'"

It's used on cels. The color regions aren't the cels. Animation cels are just the medium where the technique became standard. Otherwise, yeah.

If you know the term better than I do, go for it.

Yeah Xtifr, take a crack at that thing.

Since this has been sitting around for almost 3 months, I went ahead and shortened the description a bit as well as explained why the trope is video-game heavy without excluding other media. How does it look now?

Better. Probably worth mentioning (...somewhere) that some animated series are entirely Cel Shaded.

Should we include a list of works that are cel shaded?

It's a trope, so, why not.
Rhymes with "Protracted."

I think that's already covered by the examples.

Looks good. I think we can safely call this done.
Hopefully this should be an open-and-shut case; the article shouldn't introduce itself as if it's specific to videogames, and maybe cut back on the description's length a little.
