Aw I really don't want to do this but I just happen to notice it. So, I'm looking at CookieRunKingdom.Video Examples and I noticed that "SPOILERS! Frost Queen story" has a watermark at the bottom right corner of the screen. You might have to contact the person who submit said video to reupload it again without the watermark, however I think the best option is to have me reupload it. Idk if that was my video I would be frustrated that I have to reupload a better copy of a 2 year vid. One more thing, is using the exact same context description plagiarism?

One seeks an answer that one cannot grant her, You’re looking for light only you can ignite.VideoExamples.Final Fantasy have a few videos that have Franchise.Final Fantasy as a media source despite already having one
- Cecil Becomes a Paladin (primary trope Sheathe Your Sword) — remove Franchise.Final Fantasy, as it already has VideoGame.Final Fantasy IV.
- Kefka Palazzo (primary trope Complete Monster) — Remove Franchise.Final Fantasy, as it already has VideoGame.Final Fantasy VI as a media source. It's also got Characters.Final Fantasy VI Kefka Palazzo, a character page, tagged as a media source.
- On a similar note, the video Kefka (primary trope Establishing Character Moment) has Characters.Final Fantasy VI Kefka Palazzo as a media source, meaning there is a VideoExamples.Final Fantasy VI Kefka Palazzo page.
- Some Hardcore Assassin (primary trope "Where? Where?") — Remove Franchise.Final Fantasy, as it already has VideoGame.Final Fantasy VIII as a media source.
- Zack Fair (primary trope Take Up My Sword) — Remove Franchise.Final Fantasy and Franchise.Compilation Of Final Fantasy VII, as it already has Crisis Core as its media source.
- "Come and get it!" (primary trope "Facing the Bullets" One-Liner) — Remove Franchise.Final Fantasy and Franchise.Compilation Of Final Fantasy VII, as it already has Crisis Core as its media source.
- Roche (primary trope Graceful Loser) — Remove Franchise.Final Fantasy and Franchise.Final Fantasy VII (a redirect for Franchise.Compilation Of Final Fantasy VII) as secondary media sources, it already has VideoGame.Final Fantasy VII Remake as its primary.
- Safer Sephiroth (primary trope One-Winged Angel) — Remove VideoGame.Final Fantasy VII and Anime.Final Fantasy VII Advent Children as secondary media sources, as it already has VideoGame.Super Smash Bros Ultimate as a primary media source.
- "One-Winged Angel" (primary trope Signature Song) — As discussed in another thread
, YMMV tropes require an audience reaction of some kind. Video doesn't show an audience reaction. I'm okay with cutting this one (despite the high amount of votes, which might be a reason in favor of keeping under another trope, like Bootstrapped Leitmotif), as part of it overlaps with a similar video, "Sephiroth Descends into Battle" (primary trope Knight of Cerebus under VideoExamples.Super Smash Bros Ultimate). Including this video we'd have the full Sephiroth trailer, if that means anything.
- Cloud Crossdresses (primary trope Dragged into Drag) — Remove Franchise.Compilation Of Final Fantasy VII as its secondary media source, as it already has VideoGame.Final Fantasy VII Remake as its primary.
- Min Min ARMS Herself! (primary trope Transformation Sequence) — Remove VideoGame.ARMS, as it already has VideoGame.Super Smash Bros Ultimate as a primary media source.
Done to here I think. Moved the "One-Winged Angel" video to Bootstrapped Leitmotif.
Trust me, I'm an engineer!Okay then, since we are keeping "One-Winged Angel Video", a small addendum to my previous request:
- Remove Anime.Final Fantasy VII Advent Children and VideoGame.Final Fantasy VII as secondary media sources, it's already got Smash Ultimate.
- Rewrite the description as follows:

On second thought, I've rejected the video for violating the fair use policy: it's two-thirds of the original clip:
Edited by StarSword on Oct 29th 2024 at 4:14:44 AM
Trust me, I'm an engineer!I had a feeling, thanks for confirming my suspicions StarSword.
The following requests from my previous post were missed:
- The video Kefka (primary trope Establishing Character Moment) has Characters.Final Fantasy VI Kefka Palazzo as a media source, which still appears on a VideoExamples.Final Fantasy VI Kefka Palazzo page.
- Cloud Crossdresses (primary trope Dragged into Drag) — Remove Franchise.Compilation Of Final Fantasy VII as its secondary media source, as it already has VideoGame.Final Fantasy VII Remake as its primary.
- Safer Sephiroth (primary trope One-Winged Angel) — Remove VideoGame.Final Fantasy VII and Anime.Final Fantasy VII Advent Children as secondary media sources, as it already has VideoGame.Super Smash Bros Ultimate as a primary media source.
- Min Min ARMS Herself! (primary trope Transformation Sequence) — Remove VideoGame.ARMS, as it already has VideoGame.Super Smash Bros Ultimate as a primary media source.
I greatly appreciate you all!

"Holy Grail ending" in Gainax Ending and "Breaking the Camera in the End" Film the Hand are pretty much the same video. Maybe delete the latter since it's shorter. The trope Film the Hand can be added as a secondary trope in the former video.
Currently semi-active.![]()

Removed the requested page sources.
For the entry listed under VideoGame.Resident Evil, please change the source to VideoGame.Resident Evil 1.
Since it focuses on the film could the source of "Freddy Highmore's accent" video on Literature.The Spiderwick Chronicles be moved to Film.The Spiderwick Chronicles?
Do not mess with creatures which you do not understand.There's no media sources for "Twilight Board Games' Scores" in Periphery Hatedom
Please make the following edits:
- Add the secondary trope Bats Equals Rabies to the "Moon Is A Downer" video from the Safety Freak page. This video provides the page quote, where Moon is concerned that his friends have rabies because they were bitten by bats.
- Add the secondary trope Bedmate Reveal to the "Wake up, Jon! WAKE UP!" video from the All Just a Dream page. In the video, Jon Stewart wakes up and is relieved that he was dreaming, until he finds out that Donald Trump is in bed next to him.
- Add the secondary trope Dramatic Wind to the "Ghostbusters (1984)" video from the G-Rated Sex page. In the video, wind blows on Vinz and Dana throughout the scene, with music accentuating the drama.
- Add the secondary trope Emerging from the Shadows to the "Belle Takes Maurice's Place" video from the Take Me Instead page. In the video, the Beast steps out of the shadows, revealing his hideous appearance to Belle for the first time.
- Add the secondary trope I Am the Noun to the "Smaug" video from the Complete Monster page. In the video, Smaug declares "I am fire. I am death" before breathing fire at Laketown, even though he is a dragon and not The Grim Reaper.
- Add the secondary trope Logic Bomb to the "Anchovies" video from the Extinct in the Future page. In the video, a robot's head explodes because Fry tries to order a pizza with anchovies even though they're extinct.
- Add the secondary trope Mickey Mousing to the "Maleficent's Forest" video from the The Hedge of Thorns page. In the video, the lightning strikes whenever the cymbals are played.
- Add the secondary trope Scoring Points to the "Super Mario Bros." video from the Platform Game page. In the video, Mario scores 5000 points for reaching the end of the level.
- Add the secondary trope Virtual YouTuber to the "Orange plays Cookie Clicker" video from the Laughing Mad page. In the video, the Cookie Clicker gameplay is real, but the Annoying Orange isn't really playing the game because he's fictional.
- Add the secondary trope Visual Innuendo to the "The Ambiguously Gay Duo" video from the Ambiguously Gay page. In the video, Ace and Gary drive around in a car shaped like a man's genitals.

I've added The Twilight Saga, since there's no page for the YT chanel (though it is cited in the video's description. For the record, I was a bit hesitant on the video proper due to Periphery Hatedom being Flame Bait, but neither No Video Examples, Please! nor Video Guidelines state anything about FB items being video-banned (I earnestly think this should be clarified, for real -_-)
I'll get to these now.
EDIT: Done, I think. Please make me know if I missed something.

135 -> 180 -> 273 -> 191 -> 188 -> 230 -> 300 -> 311
I was talking about the only video visible on the now disambiguation page VideoGame.Resident Evil, not the separate VideoExamples.Resident Evil, which lists everything under that title regardless of namespace.
Please remove the one video attached to Franchise.Back To The Future, as it already has Film.Back To The Future Part III as a source.
Cleaning out more wicks, this time from Franchise.Persona / VideoExamples.Persona:
- "Yu Faces Himself" (primary trope Hates Being Alone) — remove Franchise.Persona as a secondary media source, as it already has Anime.Persona 4 The Animation as a media source.
- "Is it my voice?" (primary trope Stupid Sexy Flanders) — remove HoYay.Persona 4 as a secondary media source, as that is a Ho Yay sub-page and it already has Anime.Persona 4 The Animation as a primary media source. Maybe add Homoerotic Subtext, as Ho Yay is an audience reaction, and the video plays up Yosuke's possible attraction to Yu for laughs without and it doesn't have an audience reaction in the video.
- "Yu and Yosuke get arrested" (primary trope Remonstrating with a Gun), remove VideoGame.Persona 4 as a secondary media source, as it already has Anime.Persona 4 The Animation as a media source.
- "Yukiko Amagi" (primary trope The Hyena), remove Franchise.Persona as a secondary media source, as it already has VideoGame.Blaz Blue Cross Tag Battle as a media source. It's also still showing up in VideoExamples.Persona 4, despite not having it as a media source.
- "I'll Face Myself" (primary trope Beneath the Mask), remove Franchise.Persona as a secondary media source, as it already has VideoGame.Persona 4 as a media source.
- "A Powerful Blow" (primary trope Eyedscreen) remove Franchise.Persona and VideoGame.Persona 3 as secondary media sources, as it already has VideoGame.Persona 3 Reload as a primary media source, which is where the video comes from.
- "All-Out Attack" (primary trope Alpha Strike) remove Franchise.Persona and VideoGame.Persona 3 as secondary media sources, as it already has VideoGame.Persona 3 Reload as a primary media source, which is where the video comes from.
- "Let's hang out until morning." (primary trope Kissing Discretion Shot) remove VideoGame.Persona 5 as a secondary media source, it already has Anime.Persona 5 The Animation as a primary media source.
Also some examples from VideoGame.Blaz Blue Cross Tag Battle / VideoExamples.Blaz Blue Cross Tag Battle:
- "Orie and Weiss Get Called Out" (primary trope Didn't Think This Through) remove Franchise.RWBY as a secondary media source, as it already has VideoGame.Blaz Blue Cross Tag Battle as its primary media source.
- "Sneak, sneak— sneak, sneak..." (primary trope Saying Sound Effects Out Loud) remove Franchise.RWBY as a secondary media source, as it already has VideoGame.Blaz Blue Cross Tag Battle as its primary media source.
- "I Burn" (primary trope Background Music Override) remove Franchise.RWBY and VideoGame.Blaz Blue as secondary media sources, as it already has VideoGame.Blaz Blue Cross Tag Battle as its primary media source.

The Work Info Title video "Man getting hit by football" is a shorter version of the same clip as the Groin Attack video "Man Getting Hit by Football" (note the capitalization). The former video should be deleted, and Work Info Title should be added to the latter as a secondary trope.
Trope Editor (he/him)Remove the video examples in VideoExamples.Plot Twist as it is an index trope and is too common to have any examples (the three latest videos only list it as a secondary trope).
Currently semi-active.For VideoExamples.Kson On Air, please change the sources from WebVideo.Kson On Air to WebAnimation.Kson On Air.

On Throat Light, the video "Ghostbusters (1984)" is missing its media source. It is, guess what, Ghostbusters (1984).
Thanks in advance.
