[up] Title of the video is "Homer's Faulty Triangle Math".

The Ratchet & Clank (2002) / "Chairman Drek" video on Is This Thing Still On? has a Bandicam watermark.

Did the last two requests. The Die or Fly video already has the source and apparently the other one needs more discussion still?

There's an example for Take That, Scrappy! ("Tuvok Kills Neelix") that lacks a source. It should be sourced to Star Trek: Voyager.

ā€œCover Girlsā€ on Laser-Guided Karma has, surprise surprise, a Kimcartoon watermark in the top left.

In addition, ā€œAmphibiaā€ on Break the Cutie is not an example of the trope. Itā€™s merely one bittersweet scene instead of a character being constantly put through hell. The description is also Fan Myopia.

Also in Face Your Fears, shorten these cutoff titles:

  • ā€œRyder Faces His Fear - Paw Patā€ to ā€œRyder Faces His Fearā€
  • ā€œMarshall And Skye Face Their Fā€ to ā€œMarshall and Skyeā€

This really keeps being an issue with whoever is uploading all the PAW Patrol stuff. "Marshall And Skye Face Their F" on Face Your Fears is unsourced as well. Source is WesternAnimation/PAWPatrol

Please can the RWBY video called "The Girl in the Tower" be removed from Happily Ever After?

The video deliberately cuts the narrator's final sentence of the displayed clip short to hide the fact that the story she's telling is not Happily Ever After.

The full sentence is "The two fell deeply in love, planned adventures around the world, and lived happily ever after... or, at least, that's what should have been." and the narrator continues the story to say what happened next, and why it wasn't Happily Ever After.

However, the video deliberately cuts off before the narrator says "or, at least, that's what should have been". It's not even a subverted trope example because the audience already knows that the Big Bad and Big Good are locked in a Forever War, they just don't know why until this story is told. That makes this version of the story a Foregone Conclusion example (except this video clip doesn't demonstrate that trope either).

The show's setting does tell the actual fairy tale, but only in a spin-off book; that version is a subverted example, but it doesn't have any video examples yet.

The title for the Nichijou video on Death by Falling Over has some special characters in it. Can someone please retitle it "Nichijou: Dolph Dies"?

The following videos need "Chat Noir" and "Chat Blanc" changed to "Cat Noir" and "Cat Blanc" respectively to match the official English terminology:


Other fixes:
  • "Plagg steals Chloe's bracelet" in Nice Job Breaking It, Hero needs mojibake cleanup in its description note 
  • "I'll leave it to the experts. in Ironic Echo is missing its closing quotation mark.

Every video in VideoExamples.Bloons Tower Defense was uploaded sideways, most likely from being captured from the phone version of the game. Names for reference:

There's a Central Park video on Mind Screw that uses ! Characterization tags in the description.

Tangentially, given the message doesn't seem to be getting across, I have to wonder if making their forbidden status an editing tip might help.

^^^Sent a request to the admins to resolve that.

^^Done.

^Yes. It'd be probably time to discuss in TRS or Wiki Talk how to handle their pages.

Could a moderator please add the following media sources to the recently uploaded video for The Unpronounceable, the one titled "Harry reveals his real name":

I did not upload these myself. Also, the video on Happy Dance, "The Learning Station" is about 4:40 in length and is well over the length limit.

"Trope Namer: Shang-Tsung" on Your Soul Is Mine! needs to have the media source corrected to Mortal Kombat: The Movie.
