The format on the page needs to be standardised. Shows shouldn't have headings (unless maybe if it's a show with many examples). Some examples could probably use a little more explanation as well.

According to the Internet Archive, it's been around since at least 2009, and has changed little since then.
It's only managed to pick up nine wicks in three years. This desperately needs help. I know it's unusual with something that's been around this long, but perhaps cut & YKTTW?
ETA: or maybe skip the cut, and just send it to YKTTW with an explanation.

So, tossing it to YKTTW for improvement rather than re-doing? I can get behind that.

Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.
So, it's cool if i just copy this into a YKTTW to get more examples? Is that the kind of thing we need total consensus for?
Dunno, but the 1st and 2nd paragraphs of the description will definitively need swapping.

No, you don't need consensus to take this to YKTTW for examples. Go for it.

@septimus, I couldn't really figure out what to do with the description - if you can improve it, please do.

I started this. My problem isn't the name; it's the lack of examples, limited medium of existing examples, and the non-standard format. These are easy to solve, but the 3rd problem needs to be fixed, or any effort is vain. Name might be good, but least of the problems here. Work on the YKTTW as I please?
The examples are only from 4 comedy shows, and I'm sure that more examples from other medium exist. But, the format of the examples makes it hard to add outside medium. Redo the format of this trope to the normal format, and it's a lot easier to add new examples. Also in the Pages Needing Wicks index.
