I moved this down on the catalogue main listing because I think people will want to sample the fun stuff in tropes & idioms before thinking about theory. The category surely belongs in the wiki. I just hope to keep the "accessibility" high. — Weremonkey Gus
Fast Eddie: I put in a clarifying remark in the header of this. Behind that remark, I suggest we find new homes for:
- Alter-Ego Acting
- Creative Differences
- Common Fan Fallacies
- Finagle's Law
- Mohs Scale Of Sci Fi Hardness
- Redubbing
- Title Confusion
- Transatlantic Equivalent
- Universe Bible
Robert: Some of these are already in other indexes.
- Alter-Ego Acting - put under Characters and Casting
- Creative Differences - Characters and Casting
- Finagle's Law - already under Laws and Formulas
- Mohs Scale Of Sci Fi Hardness - could go under Laws and Formulas. It's not the best fit, but Sliding Scaleof Idealism Versus Cynicism is already in that category.
- Redubbing - merge with Gag Dub and put under Comedy Tropes
- Title Confusion - can go under Naming Conventions
- Transatlantic Equivalent - a new index page for this, Adaptation Decay, Adaptation Distillation, The Theme Park Version.
- Universe Bible - this and its subtropes can go as subtropes of The 'Verse in Settings, and should have been linked to on The 'Verse page
Fast Eddie: On further thought, I think it will be simpler to pull out the Trope Tropes from this list, along with the header text, and leave the other things here.
Sci Vo: Moved this to Fan-Speak: ...because that's just a concept about media, not a concept about concepts about media.
Spectrum: I don't understand what this category is about at all. I request a better explanation.
