Moments Entries and the YMMV Subpage?

Nearly 5 years ago, Fighteer stated all "Moments" go into their own subpages rather than staying in the respective work's YMMV.

I wonder if this is still working policy? It seems many tropers still keep the Moments in YMMV if there aren't many examples, and lately I have noticed on Ask The Tropers even the mods aren't uniform on this issue.

Any further clarifications on this?

If that is supposed to be a policy, I don't think it's easily enforceable - or enforced, period. At all.

For what it's worth, I prefer them on their own pages, mainly for spoiler reasons. They naturally attract spoiler content on the level of death tropes (except maybe funny moments). Other than that, I don't really see a problem with keeping them on the YMMV page if there aren't many examples.

It is consistent with the idea that Sugar Wiki and Darth Wiki should be segregated from the main wiki. It also prevents crosswick bloat for these essentially frivolous articles.
