Maintenance?
It looks like we're about 1/3 of the way through sorting Sandbox.Widget Series. Progress on example sorting stalled in late October, likely because of the large number of examples to sort, but at least you succeeded in drawing attention back to the TLP. Should we just launch Bizarro Show as is and crosswick, index, etc?
I'm back!
Bizarro Show needs more examples and feedback before it is launchable. I'll try to finish the example sorting in the few days.

Maintenance?
And nobody added Widget Series to YMMV.Home Page after the crowner was called. Doing that now.
I'm back!
Done sorting the main page, time to do the subpages: Anime And Manga, Widget SeriesMusic, Video Games.
If I don't get any feedback on the entries in the Unsure folder on Sandbox.Widget Series, I will delete them.
Anyone have any alternate name ideas for the Bizarro Series
draft?

Okay, is there anything we need to do besides wait for the TLP thread?
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness

Bumping. Not personally involved in this discussion, but how is progress going?

Trying to work on the Anime and Manga page but it's not easy to tell which goes which.
Like this one for example:
- Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro Chan is a parody of every Harem Genre trope and plenty more, and does it by taking them to ridiculous extremes, so it looks especially strange to those not familiar with the genre. Unusually though, whilst the tropes are Japanese, the humor is nearer to American Gag Series like South Park. And by many indicators, it is more popular in the West.

As a parody of a genre often used in Japanese media, Widget Series?

I can see how it would fit in that case. I'll keep it there then.

Crown Description:
Widget Series is supposed to be "a series that doesn't make much sense outside of the culture of its country of origin, and is used in other countries as indicative of that culture's strangeness", but is often misused. What should be done?
Bump. Is there any progress here?
