What index(es) should this go on?

Damn, TY for the Indexes. Though I'm not sure about the Youtubers one as its Creator doesn't have a page.

EDIT: Stupid page-topper, was responding to this post.

Yeah, from the title I'd think YouTubers was about the creators, but it describes itself as listing "YouTube hosted content" and a lot of web series are listed on it.

Gotcha. Also how are you able to find so many indexes btw?

Common index types are:

• medium
• release year(s)
• nationality
• genres
• subject
• creators, companies (e.g. producers, Networks), etc.
• for video games, there's also platform (e.g. Play Station)

Release year indexes are often tied to a medium (e.g. Literature of the 1970s), but some categories are small enough (or no one has bothered making a separate index for them yet) that instead the works go on a main decade index, like The '80s or The New '20s. Same for nationality indexes.

Huh. I feel that it's pretty useful information when it comes to indexing stuff. IMO a mod should take the info from that post, put it in the thread's OP, and sticky it. Should I holler that post so what I described can be done?

Does Justified Criminal fit on Likable Villain: Good Intentions? Asking here since Likable Villain looks a lot more like an index than a trope?

How does No Love for the Wicked fit under Queer as Tropes?

It was previously named Villainous Aromantic Asexual. It probably doesn't fit now.

Where does House Cerberus need to go?

Maybe this isn't the right place for it, however, would it be alright if I put Face Death with Despair in Despair Tropes?

That sounds alright.

Thanks. I'll get to it. EDIT: Done.

Should LGBT+ Creators mention both Freddie Mercury and Queen, when the former is only relevant by himself?

Would be nice if I could scrub both Queen mentions off the page for disambig ease, but probably not, since he was a member of the band.

Should Harmless Enemy and Incredibly Durable Enemies go on the Mooks index as well as Video Game Characters?

What's the difference between Video Game Characters - Enemies and Mooks beyond "Not a Boss"?

Harmless Enemy and Incredibly Durable Enemies are already at Video Game Characters. I don't see a strong relation to Mooks.

Mooks is listed Video Game Characters among many other Enemy character types.

Pages Needing Indexes got split from Pages Needing Wiki Magic. I'll get to it at some point, but assistance is welcome.

Any issues with adding Howard Hughes Homage to the Stock Parodies index? A bit worried I'm missing some subtle categorization.

Are some of Abusive Parents' indexes redundant? It's at the 30 cap that I think exists, and I just cleaned a bad indexing page.

I don't want to go through every wick just in case it was made indexing by a bad edit, so index cleanup so we can find the bad indexes easier?

Also found this, no indexes, no wicks going to.

Yeah, Abusive Parents is one of the ones where some of the indexes might need to go (at least the super-indices that have sub-indices the trope is also part of).

If tropes are on the Parental Issues index, they don't need to be on The Parent Trope superindex, either. Some of the indexes feel tenuous. Madness Tropes, Appearance Angst for two.

Removed it from The Parent Trope, but your lack of confidence about the others is making me wait for more opinions?

Let There Be Snow: Is Snow_dance close though to go on the We Are Not Alone Index?

Removed it from those two indices and unchecked indexing on two work pages.

Close enough.

- Thanks.

It's still at 30(+) indexes. Does being on Drama Tropes mean it should be removed from Korean Drama?

I don't think Korean Drama should be indexing any of the tropes listed on it — they all seem pretty general and not specific to the genre.
