How sweet it is
I'll go ahead and pitch in. Got a few wicks so far.

Got wicks from A-D. Most were sinkholes or not enough context, but a decent chunk were for MacGuffin Super-Person.

E-G done, 301 wicks left.
H-L done, 252 wicks left.

Done. Ugh, need to sleep for a week. So many ZCE's and sinkholes... not to mention the character pages filled with nothing but ZCE's...

Whew. Looks like we're done here.
Left a note in the discussion thread.

Is this thread truly done, or was it supposed to be a megathread which handles several tropes at once?

It mainly involved MacGuffin Girl, and there was some splitting, redirecting, etc. Wicks seem to be sorted accordingly. There may be some pointing to the now-supertrope Living MacGuffin for various reasons, like not enough context to discern.

MacGuffin Girl was the biggest one; we got Holy Child and The President's Daughter first, along with crosswicking the new tropes. We probably could lock this thread, though we haven't checked the Living MacGuffin wicks. That's the supertrope though, so most of those examples need to be changed into the subtropes, which is really hard to do when you don't know the work in question. Especially since no one puts enough context.
Put a note on the discussion page and will close now.

Crown Description:
What would be the best way to fix the page?
Okay... I swapped in the sandboxes, crosswicked everything, and cleaned all the Holy Child and The President's Daughter wicks. The vast majority were deleted outright either for not having enough context or for just being literal "This child is holy" or "this girl's father is the president" wicks. I'm taking a break, but I would be much obliged if someone could get started on MacGuffin Girl.
