No to indexing, it seems to be a page for defining the fanspeak of a certain genre.
The "notable" should be stricken since we're not. Genre creators should be on some Main/ page that lists creators of the genre, if that's actually a different sort of list than just videogames. Hey, I don't know that world enough to guess if people specialize in that way. I know Authors do.
I guess players can stay there, since there's no reason to index those anyway.

The indexing shouldn't be doubling. Not sure what's triggering that. It's disabled for now. The index type is a consequence of the boxes. It should be defining what gets indexed, not making two of them.

The double indexing was caused by having the Indexing Type and the Indexing Boxes, which are independent.
Now, I'm wondering if the Box Index should even exist, as certain entries, like Projectile, introduce wicks that don't make sense to be indexed. As seen bolded:
- Projectile - An attack where the character fires [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin a projectile]] of some kind. As popularized by Street Fighter's Ryu and Ken, "fireball" (Hadouken) is also a common generic term for projectiles. Might be reflectable in some games, and might be able to be thrown up at different angles or different speeds.
It's redundant to Fighting Game Tropes.

Should UsefulNotes.Fighting Game be an index?
'Cause if so, it's gotta be cleaned up.
Its indexing is mixing works and tropes together, Handled
As seen in VideoGame.Guilty Gear.
Split off Creators, Players, and other Notables?
