Nightmare Fuel cleanup

Go To

Cause this needs to get done, and a couple of people working on +10,000 wicks just won't cut it.

What needs to be done:

Add finished pages to the sandbox page so we can keep track.

[up]

Write it like this:

[[redirect:RickRoll]]

(for example), in a new page you create with the name of the redirect, and you're done.

If you want to do a redirect to Stupid Statement Dance Mix, edit the Stupid Dance Mix redlink page and then write inside it:

[[redirect:StupidStatementDanceMix]]

and you're done. Just use curly brackets when needed. => {{ }}.

[up][up] Thanks.

I did a lot of work on Neon Genesis Evangelion. I think I did a good job, but if someone were to quickly look over it it would be much appreciated.

Also, I wish that there was a keyboard function letting you de-capslock whole sentences. It's a little annoying having to retype them...

EDIT: Nevermind, solved my problem.

I've added a lot of work to the Real Life section of the Nightmare Fuel page, specifically the War and Crimes Against Humanity. I wouldn't like to see that gone.

Alright, time to de-natter-fy the Buffy the Vampire Slayer page. This is not going to be pretty. *puts on hazmat suit* Here I go!

EDIT: Found something! Didn't we kill troper tales?

** I watched that episode when I was, say, eight/nine? For days I was terrified I would go out of my room at night to use the bathroom, and see that face smiling at me. I refused to watch the episode for another 2 or 3 years. I recently watched it again at 14. Kindestod is as much Nightmare Fuel as it was to me 5 years ago.

[up][up]Removing the Real Life NF page would be equivalent to removing all the other major Audience Reactions Real Life sections. While there are some annoying problems with them (fuck natter, fuck first person, and most of all, fuck This Troper)*

, I'd feel immensely saddened if we removed them.

Yeah, I may have been the one who instigated this whole change to the Nightmare Fuel pages, but it doesn't mean I want them gone. Quite the opposite, in fact.

If any of you want to keep the real life nightmare fuel page around, I'd suggest going over to this thread and voting it down.

Okami is done and moved. Banjo-Kazooie is cleaned, but the Nightmare Fuel page is locked. Could somebody please unlock it?

EDIT: Ecco The Dolphin is also done and moved, as are Zelda II and A Link to the Past. I'm going to stop for now and I'll pick up with Ocarina of Time tomorrow afternoon if nobody else takes it.

[up] I killed a little bit of natter on that page a few minutes ago.

The HONF page for Creepypasta has been renamespaced/redirected to NF.

[up][up]I find that odd, since Ekuran was the one who told you to axe the natter in the first place.

#263: May 2nd 2012 at 7:01:38 PM

[up] I don't understand. The only thing I did was reword some examples to kill the "Not to mention" and the personal examples. Please show me what natter I added.

EDIT: YES! Buffy page is done! Damn, there's some scary shit in that show.

EDIT #2: Fringe is moved but not denatterfied yet. I would've done it myself but I have a shitload of homework I haven't done yet. That page needs some serious work. See you all tomorrow!

The Rugrats Accidental Nightmare Fuel Page got zapped, I tried to find it to move it but it's gone.

Also missing the Vanity Plates section.

Just a heads-up, at this point the Nightmare Fuel entry in the "Real Life examples removal" thread stands at:

8 (yeas:13 nays:5) 2.60 : 1

So to all who haven't bothered to look there, and to all who assume It's Probably Nothing: know that yes, there is a big risk that all of Real Life will be deleted. The votes are almost 3 to 1 in favor of such a solution.

I migrated all of the Silent Hill HONF examples to their own Nightmare Fuel namespace: NightmareFuel.Silent Hill. Did I do it right, guys? I also edited/deleted first person entries, although it must be noted that these pages never seemed to attract many of those in the first place, thankfully.

And I just realized that I forgot to put in "wick migration" as my edit reason after the fixing the main page. GOD.

Asked in the Real Life removal thread, repeated hear for posterity:

What's the reasoning behind wanting to remove the Real Life Nightmare Fuel page? I don't see it. I probably needs to be cleaned of natter/This Troper/etc., but the core concept (things in real life that people find scary) seems valid.

Did Final Fantasy XII and Final Fantasy XIII. Killed some of the ridiculous hyperbole.

Someone needs to do Final Fantasy XIII-2 (I avoid spoilers) and then the Final Fantasy index will be done.
