...Do people actually use those indices, though? If you're looking at one of those subpages it's probably because you're interested in the work, not that sort of page in general
They're clearly meant to be used. I absolutely hate seeing "this page has not been indexed" at the bottom of a page.
Okay, this is really getting annoying. Awake had Funny, Heartwarming, WMG, and Headscratchers, and not a single one was indexed. Apparently people can't bother to look down a mere two lines on a three-line Funny page and see the "this page has not been indexed" warning.
How hard is this to do properly, anyway?

Again, you're one of the very few people who care
Actually, if it's the little message at the bottom that's the problem, why don't we make those pages unindexed like the YMMV pages?
That would be a good fix, too. If "nobody cares", then why even have the "this page has not been indexed" message to begin with? No reason to have a message that nobody is paying attention to except for me.
I am part of the group that cares about indexing, and would appricate it if site showed consistency on it.
Well, I've been messaging people and asking them to index their pages.

So, every single day I come across a Funny, Heartwarming, Awesome, Headscratchers, WMG, or other subpage that isn't indexed. Steven Universe had a WMG page that was five screens long, but somehow no one noticed that it was not indexed.
Is there something we can implement to stop this madness? Maybe a bigger, more up-front warning at new-page creation that says "DON'T FORGET TO INDEX"? Auto-indexing of certain namespaces like Trivia does? Anything? I'm sick and tired of having to index literally every SINGLE subpage I come across.
