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

Did NightmareFuel.System Shock, NightmareFuel.Thief and NightmareFuel.Tomb Raider. I also looked over NightmareFuel.South Park, but I wasn't very thorough there.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanI actually did the clean up on Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni awhile ago, but forgot to post it. *facepalm* Added to the list.
Cleaned and namespaced some more:

"Learning without thinking is labor lost. Thinking without learning is dangerous."Just a note; NightmareFuel.Persona 3 already exists, so the persona 3 folder on Shin Megami Tensei is redundant.

"If you aren't him, then you apparently got your brain from the same discount retailer, so..." - FighteerNightmareFuel.The Muppet Christmas Carol and NightmareFuel.The Great Mouse Detective are moved, indexed, etc.
As is now NightmareFuel.28 Days Later and NightmareFuel.28 Weeks Later.

"Learning without thinking is labor lost. Thinking without learning is dangerous."Would anybody be terribly disturbed if I turned the sandbox into a numbered list so that it's easier to keep track of the numbers?
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanPersonally, I'm in favour of the idea.
I'm not sure how that helps, but I can't see how it hurts, either. So knock yourself out.
Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.Separating the sandbox into folders would probably be more useful.
Go ahead, but mind that the main purpose of the numeration was to keep track of the number of pages treated.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanWhile browsing some Nightmare Fuel articles, I stumbled across an article, but it was blanked. I thought about restoring it, but given the automatic-page-history-blanking feature, I remember there was nothing I could do about it. I was about to give up.
Then I remember about Korodzik and his awesome archives, resulting in all the examples safe and sound. The following restoral and general cleanup resulted in Superman: The Animated Series coming back with a full Example Lobotomy and the related, non-nattery writing style.
I'm from Piedmont. No relation with Piedmon, mind you!Welcome back, Alex.
We have a sandbox page to record pages that are done now, so no one duplicates effort. Please put any you've done there. :)
Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.Thanks, I'm gonna check that one right now, although I'm not certain I can handle another whole-article-wide Example Lobotomy altogether yet, local timezone (11 PM, Italy) be damned.
As a slightly off-topic note, why is Web Original a member of the Permanent Red Link Club? And why isn't the latter article updated with reasons? Aside from tropers who will inevitably miss it, newcomers will instead be puzzled.
I'm from Piedmont. No relation with Piedmon, mind you!Web Original is being split up. That's why.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanOh. Nevermind then. I feared it had something to do with an old gushing entry of mine, about Troper Tales not being on Wikia (which predated my suspension, anyway).
[EDIT: Still wondering why the other namespaces for Web Original are still there, though.]
Sorry for having gone off-topic!

I'm from Piedmont. No relation with Piedmon, mind you!I moved and cleaned NightmareFuel.The Thing. I'll do HighOctaneNightmareFuel.Indiana Jones and it's subpages next.
"Learning without thinking is labor lost. Thinking without learning is dangerous."Fixed the Nightmare Fuel page for Gamera.
Nightmare Fuels for NausicaƤ of the Valley of the Wind and Hayao Miyazaki are cleaned and processed.
...You've now made me imagine Totoro sausage. Bad mental image. >.<
