This thread collates all requestsFor example regarding videos for moderators and engineersHow to... .
The policy on videos is here, the policy & general discussion here
and maintenance discussion here
.
All discussions need to occur in these threads; here we only enact finalized decisions.
Please keep in mind that moderators are likely not familiar with the work/s the video/s is/are from. As such:
- Mention the video's name.
- If you want a trope added or removed from a video, please explain how the video fits/doesn't fit the trope or link to other discussions supporting your proposal.
- If you want the description changed, please write up a draft for the description.
- Videos that lack a media source go to Videos Without a Source and shouldn't be reported here. If a source has been found, feel free to submit a request for it to be added to the video.
Requests that don't fulfill the above requirements will not be handled.

Shai Pa - I too would prefer that all tropers specified why they want certain videos renamed. But in most cases the reasons for the changes are self-evident (for example, changing "Star Wars Hallway Massacre" to just "Hallway Massacre" to remove redundancy, since the video already establishes Star Wars as the media source). If I were to put on hold every request in favor of waiting until tropers justified their requests, the backlog would get too big (and right now I'm already facing a backlog of videos waiting for approval or rejection X_x). Like I said, I do analyze the changes requested before making them. If a replacement name is less indicative than the current one or simply doesn't make sense, then I won't do the change.
Ruckus Hearts - Must have been a mistake on my part. Silly me. I've already fixed it. You should be able to see the video in the tab of Funbag Airbag now.
Kofboy and Segal 991 - I'll proceed with your requests now.
135 -> 180 -> 273 -> 191 -> 188 -> 230 -> 300 -> 311For STBlackST, under Aliens Are Bastards, Complete Monster is listed as a secondary trope despite said character not being approved as one.
I am also requesting that for The Great Mouse Detective under Berserk Button, Bad Boss should be added as a secondary trope since it highlights how cruel of a boss he is by feeding his henchmen to his cat just because he called him a rat that wasn't meant out of ill-intent
The Muppet Show video for Recognition Failure has a typo in its title. It should read "Sam Doesn't Recognize Guest", not "Requize".
Please make the following edits:
- Add the secondary trope Chick Magnet to the "Shrek's true love" video from the Seduction-Proof Marriage page. In the video, three human women find Shrek irresistible in his human form.
- Add the secondary trope Furry Reminder to the "Oh, that is NASTY!" video from the Hairball Humor page. In the video, Puss in Boots acts like a human aside from the moment where he coughs up the hairball.
- Add the secondary trope Hating on Monday to the "Shrek 2" video from the Drunk on Milk page. In the video, Puss in Boots says "I hate Mondays" after drinking a shot glass full of milk.
- Add the following secondary tropes to the "Foof N' Scoops" video from the Lethal Chef page:
- Having a Heart: In the video, Chowder says "I put a lot of heart into it!" "Heart" at first seems to be synonymous with "effort," but the camera pans to his dish, which contains four literal hearts.
- Beat Still, My Heart: The four hearts are still beating, despite no longer being connected to a living thing.

I don't just Wiki Talk the talk. I Wiki Walk the walk.What primary trope is it attached to? I went to Star Wars: The Clone Wars and cannot find it.

135 -> 180 -> 273 -> 191 -> 188 -> 230 -> 300 -> 311In the page for the 1997 Anastasia, the text for Rasputin’s CM video is just his CM writeup.
What, like it's hard?- Meeting the Primos (Establishing Character Moment): Can you add Primos S 1 E 01 as a media source?
For some reason, the video "Romina and Julia Censorship" in Bowdlerise has Japanese Media, Japanese Animation and Anime (the last two are the same redirects) written as secondary tropes which I don't think should have video examples (they're indexes) and should be removed. Values Dissonance, Tear Jerker, and What Do You Mean, It's for Kids? are also added as secondary tropes but the video doesn't point out as to why so they too should be removed.

Currently semi-active.
I removed all unnecessary secondary tropes (as well as one that was actually an index), but kept Tear Jerker since it does have a tab with other video examples.
Please make the following edits:
- Add the secondary trope Our Werewolves Are Different to the "Bart Simpson Mocking People By" video from the Mooning page. In the video, a man turns into a werewolf by being mooned instead of by looking at a literal full moon.
- Add the secondary trope Rapid-Fire Descriptors to the "Big Ball" video from the Overly Long Name page. In the video, Mung Dall says many adjectives in a row, some of which are Perfectly Cromulent Words, when saying the full name of the Big Ball sport.
- Add the secondary trope Visible Odor to the "No Sleep For Ren" video from the Sleepless Alarm Clock page. In the video, Ren's feet give off a green odor after he takes off his shoes.
- Add the following secondary tropes to the "Foof N' Scoops" video from the Lethal Chef page:
- Rapid-Fire "No!": Mung says "no" seven times in a row when refusing to eat Chowder's dish.
- Reactive Continuous Scream: Mung's refusal to eat his dish makes Chowder scream, which makes Mung scream, which makes Chowder scream again.
Done (I also noticed that the Mooning video didn't have any media source, so I added The Simpsons to it; if someone can remember the exact episode, please tell me so I can add it!)
The following videos under Hell Is That Noise aren't about In-Universe character reactions to sounds, so they should be removed: "Friday the 13th", "DON'T", "The Audience is Listening" and "The Prowler".
Please also remove the secondary trope Hell Is That Noise from "Don Eladio" under Complete Monster. It's unclear where's the scary noise.

"Omni-Man lets loose" on Person of Mass Destruction is essentially the same video (minus a couple of seconds) as "Omni-Man Destroys Flaxans" on Beware the Superman.
Can we delete it and add Person of Mass Destruction as a secondary trope and Invincible (2021) S01 E02 "Here Goes Nothing" as media source to the earlier video, please?
Also, the video "Joker's Millions" under the trope A Fool and His New Money Are Soon Parted is already included as part of the video "King Barlowe's trick on Joker" under the trope Spiteful Will. The "Joker's Millions" video should be deleted, and the trope should be added as a subtrope to the "Trick on Joker" video.
I requested that the "How's Maria" video in VideoExamples.Sonic The Hedgehog Twitter remove the media sources of VideoGame.Sonic Adventure 2, VideoGame.Sonic Forces and Franchise.Sonic The Hedgehog awhile back
, but it's still showing on their individual video examples pages. I asked if this was natural behavior
but didn't get a response back.
"Blaze's Fear of Hights" with the primary trope Why Did It Have to Be Snakes? it has no Media Source but can still be found under VideoExamples.Sonic The Hedgehog 2006. I recently added it to Administrivia.Videos Without A Source, here
, but I'm wondering if VideoGame.Team Sonic Racing could be added as a media source since that's where the audio comes from. Otherwise it needs to be removed removed somehow.
In VideoExamples.Like A Dragon for the videos Kiryu Opens A Door (primary trope Door Slams You) and Tiger Drop (primary trope Counter-Attack), add media source VideoGame.Yakuza Kiwami, as that is the specific game it comes from (though it doesn't have a page and is currently a redirect to VideoGame.Yakuza 1 as it hasn't been split).
In VideoExamples.Yakuza 1, there's two videos "Majima Snaps" (primary trope Laughing Mad) and "Goro Majima" (primary trope Laugh with Me!), both covering the same scene. The "Goro Majima" video is shorter and gets to the meat of the trope faster, so that one should be kept, and add Laughing Mad as a secondary trope. Retitle the video to "Majima Snaps"

"Kaos fires Glumshanks" in Kick the Morality Pet should have Skylanders: SuperChargers as another source since it comes from that specific game in question.
"Glumshanks" in Heroic Sacrifice should also have Skylanders: SuperChargers as another source.
"Wolfrun and Grandma" in Overly Long Gag should have No-Sell since the long gag in question is Wolfrun trying to cause depression in Tae, only for Tae to be completely unaffected by it because she's just that cheerful.
