Please remove Technoblade as a source from the Dream SMP example on Kick the Dog, and please change the other two on Technoblade's video examples to WebVideo.Technoblade, thank you!

I noticed that Video Examples.Danganronpa Another Episode Ultra Despair Girls has a video for Trauma Button with the title "'Gentle' (TW: CSA)". The last part of this title stands for "Trigger Warning: Child sexual abuse". I believe I saw somewhere that TV Tropes doesn't do Content Warnings, so perhaps that part of the title should be removed.

This is my upload. Is anybody really harmed by the content warning being there? The video depicts impending child sexual abuse, it's a very short warning, and Trauma Button is a trope encompassing many kinds of triggers, so just being on the page may not be enough of a warning.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

  • 4148: Grade A Under A link still wasn't removed, so removed.
  • 4183: Video Examples are tech pages, they don't actually exist if there are no videos. You can see that by going to another namespace. Them showing as blue instead of red is up to Query Bugs. Which is also asked later.
  • 4194: Done.
  • 4195: Done.
  • 4196: Done. Done.
  • 4197: Done. Done. Done. Done.
  • 4198: Done.
  • 4199: Done.
  • 4200: As it turns out, video titles have a max length of 30, which to me is absurd. I'm not sure what the hard-coded limit is, because it let me saved with 32, but at about 100 it failed. Done.
  • 4201: Done. Done. Done.
  • 4202: That's more of policy question, but I side with "is it needed at all?" until consensus for it. Also I don't see warning on Trauma Button page aside In-Universe Examples Only.

[up] - Thanks! So initial video uploads with a 30+ title need to be fixed post-upload?

I guess some Video Examples pages being red or blue is possibly related to that.


VideoExamples.Answer Cut: Cut "Oh, boy! 3:00 AM" as a shorter version of "Oh, Boy, 3AM!"?


VideoExamples.A Plague Tale Innocence: Only video is using Wiki Word-s in description, but that doesn't work, and needs Misfit Mobilization Moment added anyway.

[up] No, the limit is 30 and lifehacking more isn't a solution.

Personally prefer to move everything to "Oh, boy! 3:00 AM" and cut the other one for being lower quality.

Is wikiwords not working in the description needs fixing (and to what then)? Also see points 1 to 3 of the pinned post.

"You may have vanquished...": Change the trope from Strange Minds Think Alike to Alternate Species Counterpart because is it really a different mind if it's an Alternate Species Counterpart?

I did wonder if it was too over the limit to accept (though missing sources aren't a big deal). A few seconds over don't seem to be the end of the world as the rule is more a guideline and not written to imply that anything over 2:30 must be rejected. I try to allow for a little wiggle room, though 2:40 or more is rejected every time.

I am not happy with how my upload for Adaptation Explanation Extrication came out. There is an awkward audio offset that wasn't there when I uploaded the video. Can a mod remove the video and I am gonna try uploading it in a different format?

On VideoExamples.Llanargollen, please change the source for the two video examples:

... from WesternAnimation.Llanargollen to Series.Llanargollen.

The two pages are duplicate; the correct namespace for this kind of show (live-action with a few animated character) is "Series/".

I submitted the video "Every Wes Anderson Film" for Recycled Script, but I think the video is a better fit for Recycled Premise. Can you please move it to Recycled Premise?
