At any rate, can we conclude that Too Cool to Live is indeed subjective?

It already is marked as subjective. No changes needed. Any more detailed discussion on the matter should go to TRS.

Hollywood Pudgy needs a banner. The basic idea of this trope is ". Bodies that looks perfectly reasonable for a woman (and it's always a woman are treated as overweight in the story."

The problem is that what "looks perfectly reasonable" is ultimately subjective outside of being obese

Can someone explain how Were Still Relevant Dammit is subjective at all?

The Fetish Fuel page needs some sort of banner to better spread the message that it is subjective and that we don't want examples on our site anymore, and so the entries on the main pages will be marked as subjective. However, we shouldn't use the current subjective banner because it says to add examples to the YMMV pages, which we don't want, so can you make a custom banner that says not to add examples anywhere on the site?

That would the be a Flame Bait banner, though the flagger won't recognise it.

I know about the Flame Bait banner, but I don't think Fetish Fuel belongs in that category. Flame Bait pages are problamatic due to negativity and the Fetish Fuel page was problamatic due to Squick. I guess we could put it in there anyway to get the message across that we don't want fetish fuel entries.

The banner text just says it's about extreme subjectives, so it's not that much of a contradiction. The fact that this type of banner is glitchy as all hell is a much bigger problem.

Since when do we have a rule not to link to Fetish Fuel? I think Eddie said it was fine in YMMV tabs.

Then what was the point of kicking all the subpages off the wiki? I've been zapping that crap on sight and I haven't heard anyone complaining.

Okay, I'm back.

[up][up][up][up][up] So do you think that Fetish Fuel should be classified as Flame Bait?

[up][up][up][up] The Fetish Fuel page specifically says "We no longer collect examples of fetish fuel." Sounds to me like we don't want examples anywhere on this site.

Also, I think that the pages for Fan Dumb and Hate Dumb should be classified as Flame Bait instead of YMMV. Both pages invite a lot of natter and complaining and there is a lot of potential for flame wars. The Fan Dumb and Hate Dumb entries on the YMMV pages don't add anything useful or interesting to the site, just complaining. Also, if the Hatedom page is classified as flame bait so should the Hate Dumb page because they go together.

As a subtrope of the Trivia trope Sure, Why Not?, shouldn't Ascended Meme also be bannered as Trivia?

Not here for a specific request, but shouldn't pages on the Ambiguity Index get their own banner, asking that people change links to it to their proper pages? It may not be a big problem yet, but it can cause confusion/annoyance to have to click through two pages.

[up][up] Ascended Meme is clearly an intentional Nod to the Fandom, meaning: It is a trope.

Shouldn't Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds be YMMV? All other Woobie-related tropes are, and right now it seems to be used for absolutely any villain who has an even slightly tragic backstory.

Shouldn't You Look Familiar be trivia, since it isn't dealing with anything in-story?

The Flame Bait banner is gone from Character Derailment again, so can we maybe put it on the sub pages?

Okay, if Deus ex Machina is when an Ass Pull is used for an ending, why is one subjective and the other not?

Crown Description:

YMMV is for items that are reactions of the audience to works and tropes that need a significant judgment call to tell whether they exist objectively or not.

Should these items become members of YMMV?

Note: Audience Reactions need to be subjective, emotional responses and things that are likely to cause arguments and disagreements. Merely being outside a work or inside an audience don't make things YMMV
