Someone please hyperlink "It's just a week in the desert," because I may be Late To The Punchline. Part of me is thinking about the Six-Day War  *, part of me is thinking along the lines of A Simple Plan (the trope)...

I don't care what the main page says, the "La La La"s are not optional.

When did this page get hacked down to a dry Wikipedia entry? =/

Please tell me that the latest crusade isn't to try to make TV Tropes entries humorless echoes of The Other Wiki.

Um, the page's just like it has always been.

It is just like it has been since the last time it was edited.

That's not the same as "just like it has always been".

Well, guy, this is a wiki. You can always "change it back" yourself.

While your first answer was only inaccurate, your second answer had nothing to do with my questions. I asked when it happened, and whether the current fad is to Wikify TV Tropes.

However, I should give you credit for sorta answering the second question (though not intentionally or directly), by giving me the standard answer to blow someone off on Wikipedia. Even if it did have nothing to do with my questions.

Alright, I'll answer your "questions".

1) The page, as it is right now, is more-or-less just like how it has appeared ever since August 2010 at the latest.

2) No, the "current fad" isn't to "Wikify" Tvtropes. The current plan is to bring some more order and more rigid standards to the main wiki pages. The "fun" is not going away; that is, unless your idea of "fun" consists of bashing works you don't like.

This page is responsible for so many Sink Holes, it's not even funny.

I feel like the trope name relies too much on people being familiar with Mystery Science Theatre. Can we at least get an alternate name for the trope?

This is a site made by and for pop-culture nerds. I don't think it's unreasonable for trope names to refer to well-known series within said culture — particularly when the entry itself explains why the trope is called what it is and where the name came from.

I'm wondering if the image of Spike from My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic with the YouTube autocaption "it's a cartoon show" would be appropriate as a page image.
