"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Perfect. Thank you! Another question: I'm trying to change the time zone on my forum profile, but it won't change, even after I clicked "set this as my time zone". What's going on?

Hi there! I am a brand-new troper (cue moans of exasperation from veteran tropers) who wishes to create an article for a show that doesn't have one yet. But it looks like someone has already begun creating one; when I search the title of the show, I'm linked to an article that is completely blank except for the title. The site tells me that the first thing I need to do is to create an index, and I'm confused. What should I link to in the index? Just "Western Animation" itself, or other Western Animation shows? Do I link to tropes that appear in the show? I've even seen some indexes that are alphabetical; should I do that? Any instructions for a first-timer on how to create an index for a new article? Thank you so much!
