Headscratchers.The Internet and Headscratchers.Console Wars were cut for being complaining about real life. I asked the tropers about which of the pages at Real Life and Headscratchers.Other should be cut, and Septimus Heap told me to go here. General Real Life and The Internet probably aren't worth anything, but I don't know about Math or Multiple Forms Of Media.

Those things (i.e those HS pages) are better asked in forums.

I'm completely in favor of cutting those pages. At best, they can be asked in the forums. At worst, they shouldn't be on the wiki at all. What do random questions about math have to do with fiction?

Multiple Forms Of Media, despite including "media" in the name, seems to be a duplicate of General Real Life.

Most of the pages look like they haven't been touched since back when it was called It Just Bugs Me!

Hey, could I start a crowner for which ones to cut, like on the websites cleanup thread?

I'm kinda late to ask this, but... is it really okay to ask to help with Headscratchers pages in TRS? I thought this subforum only plays with tropes.

I'm okay with chainsawing all of these.

Other has too many pages to add them all, but not all of them seem that troublesome. I'll add the worst to the crowner.

EDIT: I've added the worst ones, except for the ones about tropes, which I'll just cutist.

How high does the number have to be before the page is cut?

EDIT: I think it's 10, so I'll just set it there.

Since we're just voting on which ones stay or go, shall we move this to one of the Projects forums?

Yes. Please move this, and assign a proper title to the thread while you're at it.

Okay, thread retitled, and sent to long term projects for now.

Thank you. I guess projects makes sense, but why long-term?

I've added Video Games In General, but I don't know if it counts as "real life" complaining. It does seem to mostly be complaining, although less troublesome as far as complaining goes. My problem is that there's not much difference between it and headscratchers for specific games.

Wii is the only one left now, and doesn't seem all that bad. Could we just move it to Games and cutlist (and hopefully PRLC) the RL index?

[up]No one's replied, but I think that's okay. You should ask a mod, though.

Also, what do you mean it's the only one left? There's also Santa Claus.

I meant the only one still linked on the actual RL HS page. That one is just on Other for some reason.

Crown Description:

Vote up if you feel a Headscratcher page should be cut due to complaining about Real Life, or just being irrelevant to this site. Vote down if you feel the page does not have the issue and should be kept.
