While it's a useful page to have on the wiki, what examples there are seem like a mixture of People Sit on Chairs and Complaining About Shows You Don't Like. With only 18 wicks, a move to Useful Notes wouldn't be very hard, no?

Move to Useful Notes. I skimmed some of the on-page examples and the example list currently seems to be a magnet for general examples (including every anime example), but the description is fine.

I say just clean up complaining in the examples.

Should there be a crowner? Seems like we have two options:

1. Move to Useful Notes.
2. Clean up complaining in examples.

Made a crowner since the thread has been up since April, and since it's clocked.

Why does everyone want to remove all examples instead of just cleaning up complaining?

[up]If it matters, when I added that to the crowner, I was mainly referring to how Useful Notes don't allow examples. I intended to mean that inline wicks would be fine if this gets moved to Useful Notes, as with existing Useful Notes.

For example, if the first DVD to use the flag is known (which it probably is, albeit not by me), its description could say "This movie's DVD is the first to use the User Operation Prohibit Flag" or something like that. The Useful Notes page could also say that.

The crowner's been up for a little over a week and "Move to Useful Notes and cut examples" has the more positive ratio with 8 yeas and 4 nays, while "Clean up complaining in examples" is just slightly positive with 4 yeas and 3 nays. Asking if it's safe to call, or if the former ratio is too low.

Ratio of 2:1 is the minimum.

With that said, calling.

Everything's been moved, and dewicking is complete except for the Playing With page (which was cutlisted because this is now Not a Trope) and a page that has no other examples (which was also cutlisted).

Processed the cuts, so it's time to close.
