Cause this needs to get done, and a couple of people working on +10,000 wicks just won't cut it.
What needs to be done:
- Clean up every HONF page, removing first person, this troper, context-less examples, etc.
- After being cleaned, move the page to the Nightmare Fuel namespace. If it is locked, you can ask for it to be unlocked here. See How to Move a Page for more information.
- Remove all wicks to Nightmare Fuel, High Octane Nightmare Fuel, and Accidental Nightmare Fuel that do not appear on a YMMV page, a Nightmare Fuel page, or a trope description.
- Change correct High Octane Nightmare Fuel wicks to Nightmare Fuel.
Add finished pages to the sandbox page so we can keep track.
The courtesy links to Related To pages and namespaces:
- Nightmare Fuel wicks
- High Octane Nightmare Fuel wicks
- Accidental Nightmare Fuel wicks
- Nightmare Fuel namespace
- High Octane Nightmare Fuel namespace

Maybe the history has something to do with it? The other pages (like Breather Boss, for instance) that were a part of 2Llort's deleted edit also have the YMMV.Call Of Duty page show up on their "related" list.
Yeah, that's gotta be it, he changed a link to HONF and another to NF but a system restore was done to undo the changes. Now, I guess the question is, what do we do to fix it? I've already edited the page once and that didn't reset anything.

I've had that happen from time to time. Eventually, the wicks seem to clean themselves out.
The HONF page for The Suffering has been cutlisted; the new NF page could use some natter torching.
Fixed NightmareFuel.Siren.
I liked it better when Questionable Casting was called WTH Casting AgencyOooops, I was the one who reverted YMMV.Call Of Duty because of troll edits. Sorry. >.>
"If you aren't him, then you apparently got your brain from the same discount retailer, so..." - FighteerEh, I wouldn't sweat it, I had no idea that doing a revert would cause that so it's good for a learning experience.
Cleaned NightmareFuel.Toy Story and NightmareFuel.The Suffering.
Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.Danke schoen.
Created a sandbox to keep track of which pages have been cleaned. Nightmare Fuel Pages Cleaned.
I probably missed some, this is a long thread. I will add a link to the first post. Please add finished pages there - not pages that have merely been renamespaced or restored.
Look how long that list is.

Dark Cloud is a redlink because I merged it into Video Games after I cleaned it.
"If you aren't him, then you apparently got your brain from the same discount retailer, so..." - FighteerNightmareFuel.The Elder Scrolls is a redlink, as well. The content appears to still be on HighOctaneNightmareFuel.The Elder Scrolls. I don't know if it's been cleaned up, yet - or not.
ETA: Evidently not. I still see some "this troper" on that page.

Took it off the list.
Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.NightmareFuel.Finding Nemo cleaned, moved, indexed, and added to list.

Done.

I don't know why, but Call of Duty keeps showing up on the HONF wick list...I've searched for "NightmareFuel", "high octane", and others, and can't find a wick to clear out.
