Shantae and the Seven Sirens has about 130 pages left to crosswick, because some are for bosses on that game only, and are in Characters.Shantae.

     128 wicks 
['Ambiguous Situation', 'Call-Back', 'And Your Reward Is Clothes', 'Visible Silence', 'Chronic Backstabbing Disorder', 'Lampshade Hanging', 'Magic Kiss', 'Puzzle Boss', 'Secret Room', 'Wake-Up Call Boss', 'The Unreveal', 'Super Move Portrait Attack', 'Metroidvania', 'Corridor Cubbyhole Run', 'Irony', 'Air-Dashing', 'Advertised Extra', 'Butt-Monkey', 'Insane Troll Logic', 'Boobs-and-Butt Pose', 'Big Bad Ensemble', 'Notice This', 'Discount Card', 'Comical Nap Drool', 'Long Song, Short Scene', 'Wall Crawl', 'Homing Projectile', 'Title Theme Tune', 'Weapon of X-Slaying', 'Super-Deformed', 'Bucket Helmet', 'Spiders Are Scary', 'Anti-Frustration Features', 'Final Boss', 'Healing Factor', 'Take Over the World', 'Shout-Out', 'Literal-Minded', 'Scary Impractical Armor', 'Climax Boss', 'Status Quo Is God', 'Latex Perfection', 'One-Hit Kill', 'You Have Outlived Your Usefulness', 'All for Nothing', 'Continuity Nod', 'Antagonist Title', 'Super Drowning Skills', 'Warp Whistle', '100% Completion', 'Tennis Boss', 'And I Must Scream', 'Subverted Trope', 'Hijacked by Ganon', 'Shantae Half Genie Hero', '2½D', 'Like Brother and Sister', 'Sequel Hook', 'Cosmetic Award', '30-Second Blackout', 'Power-Up Magnet', 'Collision Damage', 'Fetch Quest', 'Random Drop', 'It's Personal', 'Winged Humanoid', 'Rare Random Drop', 'Hit Points', 'Healing Spring', 'Door to Before', 'Healing Hands', 'Goldfish Poop Gang', 'But Thou Must!', 'Easter Egg', 'Guide Dang It!', 'Revisiting the Roots', 'Catch-22 Dilemma', 'Music Is Eighth Notes', 'Insurmountable Waist-Height Fence', 'Squee', 'Black Comedy', 'Timed Mission', 'Palette Swap', 'Achievement System', 'Rewatch Bonus', 'Artistic License – Biology', 'Big Bad Duumvirate', 'Discard and Draw', 'Respawning Enemies', 'Regenerating Health', 'He Knows About Timed Hits', 'Pointless Band-Aid', 'Heart Symbol', 'Action-Hogging Opening', 'Actually, I Am Him', 'Skewed Priorities', 'Defeat by Modesty', 'Plot Tunnel', 'Non-Malicious Monster', 'It Makes Sense in Context', 'What Does This Button Do?', 'Xanatos Gambit', 'Damage Reduction', 'Easier Than Easy', 'Drop The Hammer', 'Sideboob', 'Spoiler Cover', 'Lots of Luggage', 'Take Your Time', 'Mistaken for Romance', 'Autosave', 'Gambit Roulette', 'Our Mermaids Are Different', 'Interchangeable Antimatter Keys', 'Adaptational Badass', 'Video Game Cruelty Potential', 'Averted Trope', 'Token Heroic Orc', 'Remember the New Guy?', 'Breather Episode', 'Passing the Torch', 'Percent-Based Values', 'Rule of Funny', 'Energy Ball', 'Ominous Save Prompt', 'God Save Us from the Queen!', 'Recurring Boss', 'New Game Plus']

And my code, just in case someone has better or something. I can cobble together one that works on Related Pages? EDIT: Seems trickier than I thought since Subpages exist.

    Python code to find uncrosswicked wicks on work page

[up] - Have fun! The hard part was getting the list. I just want to try and get as many tropes as I can before crosswicking! [lol]

Current numbers hint at least 360 tropes are in the game.

Weapons Breaking Weapons was launched a bit ago and needs crosswicking. I've gone through the related tropes in the description, but the example list is quite long and I won't have the spare time for a major crosswicking spree until the weekend or Friday night. If anyone wants to take a crack at it before then, well, there it is.

WesternAnimation.A Story existed for over a year without any wicks. (The ones it does have, including the indices, were added pretty recently, by me.)

I found Villainous Advice Song, which is currently 3 wicks shy of being considered healthy. Some on-page examples aren't crosswicked yet, so maybe that will help?

Oh, dear, I had completely forgotten about crosswicking the Villainous Advice Song examples. Good news, however, right now I finished doing so (and also fixed some issues on the page itself smile).

Next up will be to crosswick all trope examples from A Thousand and One... Americas, and I cannot forget to do this because it was me who recently made this page, so I'll be onto it as we speak!

I'd want somebody to help crosswicking Caregiver Angst. This was launched last September by Dezz Marie 95 but only has 9 wicks as of today (with a significant proportion of them added by yours truly), despite having been PM'd for this last November.

Carnivorous Healing Factor was launched yesterday, but was only minimally crosswicked and was not indexed. I am going to be held up with academic things all day, but if someone wants to dive into it before tomorrow, there it is.
