Noting here in case I don't get to it, the newly approved video for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 Corpsing is identical to the one uploaded a year earlier for the same trope.
TroperWall / WikiMagic CleanupAh, I always forget to see if dupes were uploaded. Nice catch
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper Wall- Boober and Wembley ("Too Young to Die" Lamentation)/Red (Verbal Backspace): Can you add Fraggle Rock S 1 E 7 I Want To Be You as a media source?
"Did I Mention Proposal" for Call-Back: Can you add Softer and Slower Cover as a secondary example, since it was initially upbeat and bouncy in the first film, but sung as a quiet ballad in the third before Ben proposes to Mal?
All the videos on Franchise.Dracula need to be changed to just Dracula in the Main/ namespace as their source.

"Trick Moon Theme Tune" on Expository Theme Tune needs its description changed for a minor grammar fix; "explains it's basic premise" should be "explains its basic premise". Draft below:
"Hoshiiro Girldrop" on Fake-Out Opening needs Hoshiiro Girldrop added as a source.
2025: the year it all ends?Please add the Sudden Anatomy trope as a secondary trope on the "Anne Boonchuy" video from The Hero. In the video, Anne sniffs and her nostrils are suddenly visible.
Also add the Humans Through Alien Eyes trope. Sprig, an anthropomorphic frog, is afraid of Anne, a human, even though she poses no threat to him. However, the anthropomorphic frogs aren't thought of as aliens until Season 3.
Also also, add the Caught in a Snare trope. In the video, Sprig steps into a trap made of rope and is left dangling by his foot.
You could also add the Aliens Speaking English trope. In the video, Sprig speaks English even though he is an anthropomorphic frog. This could theoretically be added to almost any of the video examples from the Amphibia page, but this is probably the best one because it's from the first episode.

I don't just Wiki Talk the talk. I Wiki Walk the walk.Please replace One-Winged Angel with its Sub-Trope, Scaled Up on the "Jafar's Cobra-Form" video. The fact that the video contains the Scaled Up page's image should be a good enough explanation. I didn't manage to find the video on the One-Winged Angel page, perhaps because there are too many video examples to show, but I did manage to find it on the Aladdin page.
I don't just Wiki Talk the talk. I Wiki Walk the walk.Please add the secondary trope Jaw Drop to the "Jasmine distracts Jafar" video from the Distracted by the Sexy page. Then you should remove the "Aladdin - Genie's Jaw Drops" video from the Jaw Drop page, because it's entirely contained within the "Jasmine distracts Jafar" video.

I don't just Wiki Talk the talk. I Wiki Walk the walk.For the Happy Tree Friends video in Fartillery, can you add HTF Breaking Wind as a media source since the clip came from that episode?
"I'm Not Out! I'm Not!" for Player Elimination should have Sore Loser as a secondary example since it shows Emmy not taking her freeze dance loss well. It should also expand to have her exiting Dragon Land alone without Max.

We can't "expand" videos. Someone would have to upload another version if they want to.
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper Wall- ~Trending Toon 1:
- ~AudioSpeaks2 per 4281
: I should've gotten them all, but there was a lot; let me know if any slipped through the cracks.
Done to here otherwise.

you forgot to do this fir those Spectacular Spider-Man videos:https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=16096748880A32952300&page=171#comment-4274
"Batty Koda" on Ugly Cute from FernGully: The Last Rainforest could have Faeries Don't Believe in Humans, Either added as the tree sprite characters spend most of the video disputing Batty's claims that humans put the cables in his head because they don't believe humans still exist thinking humans died out eons ago. Also possibly Humans Are the Real Monsters as that is definitively Batty's opinion espoused throughout (and given his only context for humans at that point is people putting wires in his brain you can understand why).
Gracie Lizzie: I posted the "Man Turns into Scotsman" video. I didn't add Gender Bender at the time because I wasn't convinced that the woman was actually being genderbent: it's hard to tell because the '60s TV resolution is so bad, but it looks like she might still have breasts under her beard.
Trust me, I'm an engineer!Granted, that could also just be because it's a joke and they weren't actually going to bother replacing the actress.
But hey, if it's determined that Gender Bender is misuse for this scene I can just remove the trope.
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper WallThese following videos are duplicates:
- "Oogie Boogie's Song" for Villain Song
- "Oogie Boogie" for Big Bad
The first of these is the longest while the latter is only half.
The following MonsterVerse character pages have video examples.
- MonsterVerse - Godzilla has "Godzilla vs Ghidorah" under Behemoth Battle and "Godzilla Arrives in Boston" under Big Damn Heroes.
- MonsterVerse - King Ghidorah also has "Godzilla vs Ghidorah" under Behemoth Battle, as well as "King Ghidorah Arrives" under Oh, Crap!, "Ghidorah In Water" under Logical Weakness, "Ghidorah's Three Heads" under Multiple Head Case, and "Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster" under Satanic Archetype.
- MonsterVerse - King Kong has "Kong Fixes his Shoulder" under Dramatic Dislocation.
- MonsterVerse - MUTO has "MUTO EMP" under Walking Techbane and "The MUT Os unite" under Unholy Matrimony.

The video "Man Turns Into Scotsman" from Monty Python's Flying Circus on Forced Transformation could have Gender Bender added as at around 1min 30sec a woman is transformed into a Scotsman too. I wasn't sure if it really counted but the episode recap page has it listed under the trope.
