Sorry for the wait, ~Wiki Wanderer.
A for effort regarding the wick check (although we prefer more wicks checked), but at least you showed us that there is a problem. We'll give it a chance.

How is this distinct from Reset Button? If it matters, Story Reset doesn't have very many wicks, while Reset Button has over 2,000.

From the descriptions I got the impression that Story Reset is for resetting whole story arcs while Reset Button is to reset drastic changes at the end of individual episodes, meaning it could happen quite often. However, the example lists of both pages seem interchangeable.

kind of continuing from what I said here.
The examples are inconsistent on whether it's about time travel stories to create an Alternate Timeline, Canon Discontinuity to erase the last story from canon or something else entirely. I've never done a Wick Check before so bear with me.
I could maybe see this being a subtrope of Canon Discontinuity, but the two tropes aren't linked to each other anywhere and many examples would have to be moved to Story Reset in that case.(including the page image, even).
