TLP Crash Rescue - Fixing prematurely launched TLPs and pages

Go To

Prematurely launched pages and pages that weren't fully fleshed out at the point of launching, are a big problem. Since these usually share several problems at once, this thread is aimed at re-running them through the TLP for fixing - the usual fix - or cutting them if they are too bad.

Problems this thread deals with include bad names, not enough/bad examples, unclear description, etc.

For the interested, here's a list of recently created pages. Launches

Note: Please do not request a mod to unlaunch drafts that don't have any issues besides lacking a launch notice/24hr launch notice. While 24hr launch notices are mandatory, there are a few exceptions to the rule. If you see a draft's sponsor launch a TLP without an announcement, it's best to remind them of our TLP Guidelines first. If they continue to repeatedly launch drafts without a launch notice, you can report them on Ask The Tropers or the TLP Community Issues thread.

Do I need to puff up Yandere High School any more to make it not stubby? It has approximately 33 tropes now.

Additional work page stubs: Mist Robed Gate, The Creature That Ate Sheboygan, Admirality Trilogy, Legend Quest, Flipit Paper Combat, Cadwallon, Night Lights. Also, Animus Campaign is a draft with spelling and formatting errors, and AT-43 is a work subpage without any tropes.

Posting here to apologize for not including a tropes on the page as of now, I accidentally misnamed the page and was hoping a mod would come around and fix it, seeing as that has happened, I'll get started with tropes.

I started work on SWE 8's page because filming for it is set to begin in January of next year. I know it's a bit pre-emptive to make the page, but I felt that given that the film will be worked on not too long from now, it was worth getting a head-start on.

I suppose it'll be easier to work on once TFA is out properly. I know a bunch of the spoilers, but since there's an embargo right now (for some reason) I won't add the ones pertinent to SWE 8's plot to the page.

Checked out Real Bargain Huh. And wow, everything about it is not that great. Also, name could have been better, but that's just me. It's cutlisted now.

BrotherSisterIncest.Fire Emblem

Unindexed subpage I found while on a Wiki Walk. It's full of Natter and appears that all of the examples fall under Incest Subtext instead of this trope.

Surprisingly Better Scene was brought up on ATT. Now technically, it was launched with five hats but... I don't understand how. It's a new page that's a combination of gushing and complaining (both things we're trying to avoid), the name is an unclear snowclone, and the description needs work.

EDIT: It's been cut.

Male Tsundere also seems to be The Same But More Specific to Tsundere. Also, I doubt there's any indication of Tsundere being Always Female, so cutlisting.

Swept Away 2002 appears to be a stub work page. I mentioned it in the message I sent to Septimus about Body of Evidence, and then I just looked and realized dummy me sent him the wrong page so I'll just submit it here. It looks like its been sitting there for almost three years undisturbed by Troper Magic.

Yea, the Cinemadonna series had me wanting to roll around in Madonna's mega Razzie films ;)

The crosswicks are an issue here; are there any usable examples?

Also, today I might not make a new page screening - Christmas obligations basically.
