Well, just recently I added both "Do Not Feed The Monkeys" (10 tropes listed) and "Albino Lullaby" (which admittedly was also in "Works Needing Tropes" and "Needs Wiki Magic Love" indexes, though with 14 tropes currently listed, preferably not for long) to the Video Games of the 2010s page, if you need an example or two.
Oh, and I also made Behold Studios an index, mainly so Galaxy of Pen and Paper had one index to belong in other than Western RPG (which I also recently put it in). I suppose it's also a Video Game of the 2010s, now that I think about it...

Every work should at the very least be indexed on a medium page, like Video Games, Film, etc.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"I put Do Not Feed The Monkeys on the Time Management Game index, and Albino Lullaby on the Horror Video Games index.
There are comments throughout the Video Games index that say to put games on the appropriate genre index and then remove them from the Video Games index whenever possible, so I didn't add these ones.

Website.Game Jolt should undergo an index-ectomy, right?

Link to TRS threads in project mode here.Shouldn't Disney+ only include media exclusive to the platform? I also wonder why it includes Peter Pan and The Sword In The Stone in the Live-Action Film section.
Keet cleanupNetflix only lists Netflix originals, not every movie and show that Netflix has ever carried.
Join the Five-Man Band cleanup project!Just found Website.Groupees, which seems to gather games and distribute them?
Cut folders?
Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576Honestly, that page could just be cut entirely. There's nothing tropeable about that site, and the games aren't even consistently available like other stores.
So, it's been a while since we cut the lists from these pages, and I can't help but wonder if it's even worth keeping these pages around anymore?
Humble Bundle have since begun publishing games, so that one can stay, and should be moved to the Creator namespace.
The rest, though... like, what's the point? Steam and GOG.com are at least comprehensive in explaining the site, but Indie Gala and Groupees both have only a single paragraph which basically tells you nothing, and Desura and Indie Royale both went belly-up years ago.
Without these lists, these articles are basically stubs, and since we decided the lists should go, I don't see any value in keeping the pages at all, since none of them (save Humble Bundle) are creators in and of themselves.
We could have a UsefulNotes.History Of Digital Distribution, but yeah, notablility is only waived for works, tropes and Creators, basically.

Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576Netflix still lists works they only licensed and didn't produce, especially in the anime folder. Though they did commission dubs for anime like Little Witch Academia and Neon Genesis Evangelion, so maybe those should stay.
Keet cleanup~Fighteer — Could I get your opinion on ?
Definitely agree on cutting those pages if they only distribute games rather than creating them.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Alright, I put the following on the Cut List, citing this thread:
Any others we should cut?

I don't think Steam and GOG should be cut, since they at least have a good description.
Keet cleanupWas thinking that Steam's Achievement System should be a sub-page of that trope, because it's platform + service-specific, like a Pre-Order Bonus from a specific store, but longer-term.
Oh, Hmm... If Pre-Order Bonus is Trivia, Steam and other services' outside-the-game Achievement Systems, should be, too?

Can you provide any examples, or is this a purely hypothetical problem? Because they shouldn't have been like that in the first place.
