Maybe we could cut it and send it to the trope idea salvage yard. This sort of overlaps with The Cuckoolander Was Right.

Cut and Salvage Yard is winning, so I say so too.

Now a lurker. Thanks for everything. | he/him
If there's a possible trope here (which it sounds like there is,) salvage yard.

Could we send this back to TLP and set up a rename crowner?
How sweet it is
Seconding sending to the salvage yard.

Are you willing to sponsor it yourself? If you are, then we can do that, but otherwise, we'll just salvage yard it. And yes, the title is bad, but we can leave it up to TLP to figure out a new name.
But yes, we should yard this trope.
Big Catch, Sparkle Edition
Yeah, yarding it is effectively sending it back to TLP, just without it being urgent or necessitating someone volumetering for a sponsorship they may not actually want. It just gives the option for future tropers to try it.

Lots of the examples are Whole Plot References to the folktale. And BTW I'm American and have heard this tale before.

Awesome. Well, we're just about unanimous, so we should move all valid examples from Stone Soup (and check wicks and pitch them accordingly).
...maybe in a couple days; thread was opened yesterday. For those who object to TLP/yard, you have until Wednesday.

If everything's done.
Might as well close since we got a draft.

Stone Soup is a trope that suffers from Trope-Namer Syndrome. It is named after a European folk tale that is not well-known in North America, and the image is an unhelpful Visual Pun. It's also underused, at only 22 wicks, and most examples are about literal stone soup or references to the trope-naming story. (The trope is about a specific type of plot about a mock Cloudcuckoolander who gets people to collaborate.)
All wicks that are work, creator, or trope pages:
EDIT: I have submitted
the page to Image Pickin, and this thread should ideally run parallel to it.
