Making disambigs for works that share names...

Anyone against moving Music.AURORA to Music.Aurora Aksnes?

No objection here. It's natural disambiguation.

Wikipedia says she's known mononymously.

There's also other music groups by the name... maybe Music.Aurora Singer?

WesternAnimation.He Man And The Masters Of The Universe is just a redirect to Franchise.Masters Of The Universe, so it probably shouldn't have subpages. Having no knowledge of the franchise, though, I'm having trouble figuring out whether the items on the Headscratchers page and WMG page are specific to a single work (and if so, which one), or relevant to the franchise as a whole.

Most of the WMGs, at least, seem fairly non-specific or appear to cross series, so I was thinking about just moving all of those to the Franchise WMG page.

The first two items on the Headscratchers page, though, appear to be pretty specific, mentioning "an episode" with a certain plot (Teela's inability to adapt), and details about a particular set of events (Orko knocking down a statue and getting yelled at).

Any thoughts?

Asking to disambiguate the The Legend of Zelda tv show from The Legend of Zelda franchise page for 4 reasons:

• Subpage conflict. The tv show's YMMV tab directs the viewer to the franchise's YMMV page, not The Legend Of Zelda Animated.
• Scattered trivia. Some trivia is in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!, and also in the actual franchise's trivia page about the dub's voice actors. Can we put it all in one place?
• Doesn't make sense for a 80s show to have pages referencing games that it has nothing to do with. It only references two games (and a comic), so basically that's... very little of the franchise at this point.
• They share the same name, which you can already see in the first sentence of this post. A retronym suggested by troper Amonimus from my thread would be The Legend of Zelda (1989). No actual weblink conflicts (as far as I'm aware), but separating the two names would be nice.

Should they be disambiguated?

EDIT: ^ I don't know He-Man either, unfortunately. Someone else would have to comment on that.

WesternAnimation.The Legend Of Zelda 1989 seems good to me.

Agreed.

Cool, I'll move it later tonight when I'm not on mobile. Thanks!

Should ComicBook.Malibu Comics Mortal Kombat be ComicBook.Mortal Kombat Malibu Comics instead?

Found it because Sibling Fusion's image source isn't image-linked.

Yep. "Malibu Comics" isn't in the title.

I've been moving Manga.Touch wicks to Manga.Touch 1981, but I see that there's tropes that use the Manga for the Anime, is that okay, or should I use a different page?

And if I do, would it be Anime.Touch 1981, or Anime.Touch 1985, using the year of the anime's start or the date of the source work?

And also the manga's YMMV page is talking about the Anime.

This depends. There is a reason that anime and manga get folderized together... In many cases, one is such a straight adaptation of the other that most trope entries work equally well for either. If that is the case here, convention is to keep it all under whichever medium came first.

I only read the manga but from what I read online, I don't think they are different enough from each other to split. The anime is mostly true to the manga besides a few details on how the pivotal tragedy of the story is treated. Besides that, the anime has the typical filler episodes like other anime adaptations and leaves out some things that were in the Manga towards the end as the anime ends earlier than the Manga.

Okay, keeping the Manga wicks and moving them to Manga.

It just feels weird saying that someone is an Animator for a Manga, instead of an Anime.

"someone is an Animator for a Manga"

Where?

You can phrase it as "X is an animator for the anime adaption of [manga]" or something like that.

Well, actors:

• Creator.Keiichi Nanba
• Creator.Yuji Mitsuya

Producers?

• Creator.Ajia Do

Theme Singer:

• Music.Cristina D Avena

~Anddrix : I noticed you moved TabletopGame.Werewolf to TabletopGame.Werewolf 1986. I don't think that's a good disambiguation for it. As the page says, it was Mafia that was created in 1986, and the version known as Werewolf was created in 1997.

Ah I hadn't noticed that. I was mainly going off of the Wikipedia page:

Although it mostly talks about Werewolf, the page actually also covers Mafia, since they're basically the same game.

If it has to be disambiguated (Does it?), here's my ideas:

• Mafia (1986)
• Mafia (Parlor Game)
• Mafia (Party Game)
• Werewolf (1997)
• Werewolf (Parlor Game)
• Werewolf (Party Game)
• Mafia and Werewolf
• Mafia/Werewolf
• Werewolf and Mafia
• Werewolf/Mafia

I lean towards one of the last four options.

There's also the matter of the namespace, since it's not really a tabletop game (cards are used to assign roles, but you could just as easily use slips of paper), but that's a separate issue.

Literature.Scorched... No tropes at all, has a Characters.Scorched... Do we cut or what, since there's Film.Scorched?

Film.The Lodger... There's a remake or something we call Film.The Lodger 2009, and the blue link says the source is from 1913, while Literature.The Lodger says 1914...

Traveller, or Traveler? Then there's Series.Traveler 2007. Travelers also exists. Not sure if it helps that Literature.Travelers is a disambig.

Should Mafia be considered Roleplay?

Nah, it's a set of rules by which any group of people can play a game — not a single instance of a game which was documented for public consumption.

Film.Monster to Film.Monster 2003
Film.The Monster to Film.The Monster 1925
Literature.Monster to Literature.Monster 2009
Literature.The Monster to Literature.The Monster 1948
Manga.Monster to Manga.Monster 1994
Series.Monsters to Series.Monsters 1988
