'Cause its neglected while it would otherwise be useful!

With Inbound Watch, we clean up, monitor and maintain some of the top items in the inbound links section.

When editors are looking for a model on how to edit, most people go by an existing page. If the Example Indentation is wrong, or if there's natter, it's likely they'll think that to be okay and adopt the style. Maintaining the pages that bring in the most people will help alleviate that to some degree.

So, who feels like grabbing one today and cleaning it up?

I fixed up the indentation and namespacing on Seven Samurai and Starbound, but I don't really want to watchlist works I'm not familiar with, so someone else should grab them.

Memes.Axis Powers Hetalia is filled with Zero Context Examples, but to be honest I'm not really sure how Memetic Mutation ZCEs are supposed to be corrected.

The standard format for Memetic Mutation is a description of the meme accompanied by a hottipped explanation of its origin.

By deleting them. Or by commenting them out.

Well, I finished Too Awesome to Use and that Walkthrough Mode was unbearable.

I got Kubrick Stare down through live-action films, but it's a pretty long one.

I got Lower-Deck Episode.

For anyone looking for short work, Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex is fairly short and straightforward.

Memes.Touhou looks clean to me.

Almighty Janitor needs bullet pointage help.

Did some cleaning on Heartwarming.Game Grumps

I cleaned Almighty Janitor, Advertising through Film folders. Why does Scrubs have its own folder?

EDIT: also got Scrubs through Theatre folders.

Literature - Live-Action TV and Video Games - Real Life still left to go.

I've fixed indentation on Mr. Seahorse and zapped a ridiculous amount of natter, which I count as the two most important (and closely linked) tasks here. Someone else can sort it and check for namespaced/italicised work titles if they like; I don't really want to spend longer on that page.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

I notice Brand Name Takeover has a somewhat odd format.

I got Infinity +1 Sword down to Hack & Shlash, but after Too Awesome to Use, I'm allergic to Walkthrough Mode.

I did indentation on The Guild yesterday, but YMMV items need moving and ZCE's commenting out.

Manic Pixie Dream Girl and The Bechdel Test both have high counts in general, so they should be checked any day.

Thankfully, The Bechdel Test is super short. I got it.
