Why would such an old, obscure '90s live-action Saturday morning kids show like Saban's VR Troopers deserve its own Special Effect Failure subpage? I mean, just looking at it, there's very few examples, and it even has examples for Stock Footage Failure, which couldn't have made sense.

My suggestion is that, if this subpage is cutlisted, all its examples should be moved back to the respective trope pages' "Live-Action TV" sub-folders.

Plus the page image is a duplicate of the main page.

I was under the impression that assigning subpages was based on how much a work was cluttering the page rather than how notable the work is. Not to say that the page doesn't have issues, just that old and obscure isn't really the major point.

This signature says something else when you aren't looking at it.

[up][up][up]Excuse me, but why did you set a clock in the first place when I didn't ask for one?

[up][up]No, the image on the main Special Effect Failure page is a different one.

I meant the main page for the work, VR Troopers, not Special Effects Failure. Both pages have the same image.

[up]I'm sorry, but the images on both the work page for VR Troopers and its Special Effect Failure subpage are different as I've discovered.

Huh. I was sure it was the same image on the work page. My bad.

Clock expires soon; what's the decision?

Absolutely move the Stock Footage Failure examples; shouldn't even need a trs thread for that because it's misuse. That leaves only three on-page, which should probably go back to the main trope page, but I don't care either way.

Once the examples are moved back, add this page to the cutlist.

The clock's overdue; what's the consensus already?

Again, clock expired; this needs more posts. Consensus?

~Amour Mitts, there's no need to bump constantly if you don't have anything to add.

As for the clock, it can ignored if there's a conversation ongoing.

To the extent that anyone seems to care, just move the examples to the places they belong and cut the page.

This totally doesn't clash at all.
I've moved the Special Effect Failure and Stock Footage Failure examples back to the respective pages. Now, where should the image on the right be moved to—Special Effect Failure / Live Action TV or Stock Footage Failure?

I'd go with the Special Effect Failure subpage, but you will need to start an Image Pickin' thread first.

I've tagged the page image on my Image Pickin' thread; can someone add this page to the cutlist?

Bump. Can this page be cutlisted now?

You don't require permission to add a page to the Cutlist, so long as there is a reason, though the cutlist is a bit difficult to locate.

Lock-hollering now that the subpage for VR Troopers has been cut.
