This thread was asked to be starred for final action; where is the work at progress-wise?

I'd split into two tropes 1: The Stotic or Shrinking Violet smiles and is a major event 2: "I like X when she smiles"

Change has already been made. I just don't know enough about the examples to clean them up. I made some progress on them, but I'm pretty sure there is more to do, I just don't know which ones to clear out.

Okay, so lets have a decision about what to do about the examples, as 'm pretty sure we still have bad examples (we tightened the definition):

1: Other people who are more familiar go through and clean bad examples out (I already went as far as I can).

2: I go through and nuke every example where I don't know if it fits or not (basically start over with a cleaner slate)

3: We ignore the problem, let bad examples sit, and hope wiki magic fixes it.

I'm fine with any of these options, but I don't want to choose #2 on my own, and nobody seems to be taking up #1. So right now we are going with #3 as the default, and if nobody wants to do otherwise I suggest we lock this thread.

Would anyone object to me commenting out the examples that don't provide in-universe context on the other characters finding the smile beautiful or just read like "when x smiles it's beautiful", with a commented note at the top explaining why they're commented out? If no one does, I can do it tonight or tomorrow.

Sounds good. Go forth and do so.

I went through and commented out zero context examples. There were quite a few that only mentioned the person being pretty (or at least prettier) when they smiled without anything else.

Is that all we need to do here? I picked this thread out of the bottom of the TRS pile, so hopefully we can close it.
