I'm not really sure where to put this. I found a trope needing a bunch of crosswicking, and by coincidence, this trope. I know nothing about crosswicking. I attempted to add one for My Little Pony, but I am completely intimidated by the prospect of crosswicking more. I am not even sure they should be crosswicked.

Agreed, the name should be more informative, however I suggest for the wicks to be moved over to Skewed Priorities, and the page deleted as this trope seems to merely be a subversion: to an outsider it appears to be Skewed Priorities, but in fact, Bob was solving the problem.
"For if there's one thing that the Vanduul have taught us: it's that without victory, there can be no survival." -Admiral Ernest BishopSome subversions of some tropes become common enough to be their own tropes. There are 3-4 pages of examples on the page. That's far more than enough for its own trope.

Check out my fanfiction!Yep, that sounds like a trope to me.
Definitely looks like a trope, but it needs an overhaul.

This trope has been around since 2007, but it only has 49 wicks and 84 inbounds. The title is also a stock phrase, and suffers from Trope-Namer Syndrome. For example, the title is not really an example of the trope. The description is also poor. I think this needs a rename and and a better description.
