[up] As far as I'm aware they go in film. I thought I remember the mods saying so, but I'll ask again in wiki talk.

EDITED IN: Wiki talk thread created.

Then I guess we'll need to clean up a lot of pages, including the aforementioned Woobie page. [lol]

Edit: Does this mean we need to create a Woobie subpage for Western Animation Films then?

Yes. Yes we will.

First, though, if even users like boobustuber (who IIRC has been here for a while) weren't aware that animated movies go in film, then we ought to get the word out. And I think one of the more efficient methods of that (it won't cut it on its own, but it's a start) will be to have film subpages of frequently-viewed tropes get their page images from animated movies; that way people coming across these page images will get the idea, and we'll cut down on the input of misplaced examples.

Trying to clean up the examples while misplaced ones are still being added is like trying to clean up an area affected by a sewage leak while the sewage is still flowing into it.

Edit: Does this mean we need to create a Woobie subpage for Western Animation Films then?
Not necessarily. There are plenty of other tropes for which live action movies and animated movies both go under "film," and frankly, I think it's a good thing there are. Plenty of movies mix live action elements with animated elements, so the distinction isn't necessarily a very clear one.

Actually, if it were up to me, we wouldn't be distinguishing between western animation and live action TV either. Both would be "TV shows."

I don't think there's enough in the ADG 2 H pic to get the "orphan" aspect across.
