Originally, a TRS effort moved what was in Stupid Statement Dance Mix to Voice Clip Song. Later on, I was told they don't go there due to being fanmade. Turns out the examples that were already in Voice Clip Song prior to my edit weren't official either.

So, the whole tree's pulled until we find a home for it. For record-keeping:

There's a commented note: "Brief description on how VTubing works in general these days; if VTubing gets a trope, then the stuff down here should probably be moved over there."

Virtual YouTuber, so maybe the following two paragraphs aren't needed?

just want to put this out there for anyone that doesn't frequent the forums much: a thread regarding the cleanup of Virtual YouTuber got made a few days ago, as an extension of the Web Video namespace cleanup.

tl;dr troping about a VTuber's Kayfabe is fine because it's fictional, not so much the streamer behind the avatar, so bear that in mind for your future edits

started a sandbox page in response to this thread to hopefully get the ball rolling at least on our end, or at least get a general idea of what the cleanup is supposed to be about for us.

I think were long overdue to change the designation of the Main page for hololive (and others such as Nijisanji and Kizuna Ai) from Web Animation to Web Original or something, as hololive as a whole is not exactly an animation (aside from Holo No Grafiti which isn't the main focus anyway), but a group of people live virtual avatars that do skits and live-streams in real time. There's also Web Video, which is described as "Live Action on the Web", which doesn't seem to work with other Virtual YouTuber related work pages such as VShojo.

i made an Ask the Tropers thread more than a year ago about this very topic. although it only ever got one reply, maybe it might help in this matter: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/query.php?parent_id=90693&type=att

See Namespace.

  • WebOriginal/ (This namespace is mostly deprecated. It's mainly used for memes, which we don't want anymore, as well as holdovers from the infancy of namespaces.)

So cross that one off.

I brought up this topic in this thread, but so far I only got two responses: "Real-time animation is still animation" and "I think they all belong in Web Video/ more", both of which don't exactly help personally...

Seriously, I never understand why people are so fixate on Web Original/.

Alright, I decide to only keep Hitomi as the only example of Unperson since she is, well, the only example.

See Averted Trope, absent of trope is rarely worth mentioned. And while I guess Aloe might counted as subversion instead, they never actually set up the trope so it's closer to Speculative Troping (this is reinforced by the fact that nobody expect anything when some of holostar talents quit, nor when CN branch shut down). Yes, only Coco's channel remains after her graduation, but Unperson is "the systematic removal of all evidence of a character's existence". While Aloe doesn't has content out of her channel, Rushia was featured on many hologra episodes and collap music videos, all still available to public on hololive VTuber Group channel.

In short, somehow people here think Cover will pull Unperson every former talent despite they only did it once.
