I just moved over all the Synopsis pages that start with A, except Arifureta Shokugyoude Sekai Saikyou and Attitude Era which I just sent to the cutlist. There's a problem though—there aren't Recap pages for films, so some of these pages are left non-indexed until somebody makes them.

The Synopsis namespace is being used to dump some overly long Recap descriptions. These include:
Recap.A Game Of Thrones was created by the Merge, but it's not holding all of Synopsis.AGameOfThrones
(Web Archive Link).
Synopsis.LOONA is a thing, but Recap.LOONA is a much shorter, un-indexed thing?
What are we doing about Main.Synopsis?

- Well, here's a list, just in-case anyone wants to revert any of them:
- FanficRecs.Bridget Jones: All the wicks were used to start the Synopsis sections for each fic.
- NeverTrustATrailer.Western Animation:
As the show becomes more continuity-driven and less episodic, the official summaries shifted from straight-forward synopses to short, single sentences
Then there's Recap.The Iron Giant and Recap.Enders Game where the starting sentence was basically:
- This page is a Synopsis for [This Work].

Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576Here is a dead thread about a topic that has long since concluded, as a quick check reveals no more pages left in the Synopsis/ namespace
. Hollering for a long-overdue lock and morgue.

(This was brought up in Ask The Tropers here.
)
The Synopsis/ namespace is not saliently different from the Recap/ namespace. It was decided via crowner in this thread
that we should "merge Synopsis and Recap into a single namespace." Problem: there are over 200 pages still in the Synopsis/ namespace.
If you're wondering what the "difference" used to be, it was "synopsis for the whole work" and "synopsis for specific parts of the work."
You may be wondering how a merge could work. Well, a synopsis of the whole work could go under the head page for the Recap/ subpages, and if there aren't any Recap/ pages, then the whole synopsis could just go there in the one Recap/ page.
Note that listing a tropes list for the synopsis of the whole work would be redundant with the works page's tropes list. As stated here,
tropes lists can be listed for individual parts of a series, so we don't have to undo that work. We may need to revise the content from Synopsis/, especially if it's too specific or detailed.
Look at all that shiny stuff ain't they pretty
