Thank you.

I noticed there does not seem to be the message that says "While you are here, the following items need to be moved" when editing a page with trivia on it. Are there any plans to add that later?
Sure. I just forgot about that feature. Thanks for the reminder.

I request trivia to remain on the character pages. It is much more convenient to just put trivia that directly relates to one character under them than to mix it up with stuff about the show as a whole. That is kind of why we have character pages in the first place (that, and pages getting too long, which character pages are solving on their own anyway)
Especially since they already have superfluous information such as who voiced who.
Personally, I think that subbullets on a Trivia/ page look neater than to leave these items on Characters/ tabs, especially with "superfluous" in mind.
Also, I've changed the policy pages that refer to these markers to match the new system.

The point is, talking to himself is a lot less superfluous a character detail than who they were voiced by. It gives more insight to a scene where Kaientai argue with Shane McMahon if you have an idea what had to go into that scene knowing Shane voices himself and Taka Michinoku.
It is a lot less superfluous to know if an actor separates multiple roles they play in a single work by altering their personal appearance.
Now, if you set aside an entire article to Mic Foley, I don't mind not having to load more than one tab to learn the details of his wrestling personas. However, when a character page is separated from the rest of the work, I would rather cut down the number of pages needed to learn about the characters whose tropes are already annexed from the main tab.

We have a thread in the Projects forum to discuss what tropes count as Trivia.

Creator Page Guidelines says that trivia can go in creator pages. But trivia is now both marked out with that interrobang (+ Tooltip) and with the "While you're here, these items need to be moved to either the YMMV or Trivia tab:" message.
Can this be disabled on creator pages?
Edit: Music pages too...

Most of these are okay to include on a creator page, or on their Trivia subpage as appropriate. (emphasis mine)
I read that as some Trivia facts can go on their page, but Trivia tropes still belong on the trivia subpage.
Link to TRS threads in project mode here.
You'll notice that for works, creators, and such, that the red/orange dots for misplaced examples have been changed to icons which indicate where they should go. That is, either to YMMV or Trivia.
