The video on VideoGame.Persona needs to have the source corrected to VideoGame.Persona 5.

Both videos on Star Wars need to have the source corrected to A New Hope.

I noticed that all the videos on Trope Namers has Main/TropeNamers as a secondary source. I get the impression that it's on purpose so here's a few more Trope Namer videos that should probably have the source added.

A Pupil of Mine Until He Turned to Evil: "Darth Vader"

All Your Base Are Belong to Us: "All Your Base Are Belong To Us"

Always a Bigger Fish: "There's Always a Bigger Fish"

Bolivian Army Ending: "Butch Cassidy and Sundance"

But for Me, It Was Tuesday: "It Was Tuesday - Trope Namer"

Curb-Stomp Battle: "American History X"

Jedi Mind Trick: "The Trope Namer"

Luke, I Am Your Father: "The Trope Namer"

Killer Rabbit: "The Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog"

My Name Is Inigo Montoya: "Inigo Montoya"

Rise from Your Grave: "Altered Beast [Rise From Your Grave]"

Samus Is a Girl: "Samus Aran"

Smite Me, O Mighty Smiter: "Bruce Almighty Smite Me Scene"

Strike Me Down with All of Your Hatred!: "The Trope Namer"

Vader Breath: "The Trope Namer"

There's probably more, but these are all I could think of right now.

^^^and ^^ done.

^To be honest, that seems like a misuse of the source bar. I'd want some discussion on such a request before actioning it.

“Considering Opossumon belongs” on Ridiculously Cute Critter is unsourced. It’s from Digimon Fusion.

The title and description are also incomplete. The title should simply be “Opossumon”.

The description should probably be “Considering Opossummon belongs to Airu, it kind of has to be cute.”

"What's up now, Bitches?!" on Who's Laughing Now? has a watermark from something called VivaVideo. I'm pretty sure it's misuse anyway since the description is about villains and the video is not.

“The Last Key” on "Hell, Yes!" Moment is . . . questionable. The trope is when a character realizes their fate will change for the better. The video is the reveal trailer for a highly-requested Smash character.

Both video examples for Face Stealer ("Nice hat" and "Miitopia Dark Lord") are not the trope (which is about shapeshifters) and are taking the name literally. I don't know which trope they would fit under (maybe Impossible Theft?)

“Crong” under [Trope Name] is another example of the [Trope Name] bug. It should be under Ocular Gushers.

On VideoExamples.The Mandalorian S 2 E 1 Chapter 9 The Marshal, the video "Greater Krayt Dragon" is tagged as an example of Kaiju, which is wrong — Kaiju is a movie genre. Please correct it to the right trope, Rent-a-Zilla.

[up]That sounds like just another case of the source being too long issue.

Yep, that's 49 characters, and video sources truncate at 48 even though the actual limit on titles is 64.

Suddenly I'm... still rotating Fallen London in my mind even though I've stopped actively playing it.

As a follow-up to my previous request, I checked out the Kaiju page, and three video examples here misuse it, belonging instead in other giant monster tropes. So please correct the "example of" entries for the following:

Thanks in advance.

The Trash the Set example titled "The End of Camp Wawanakwa" lacks a source. It should be linked to Total Drama.

The "Liberty Joining The Team - PAW" clip under Ascended Fanboy is currently unsourced; it should be under PAW Patrol: The Movie. I also suggest getting rid of the "- PAW" part of the title to make it shorter. The "While Zuma is rescuing a famil" clip under Social Media Before Reason (which comes from the same movie) is also unsourced and its title should be shortened/changed.

Oh, I believe in yesterday

I think it's the same person uploading these PAW Patrol clips straight from Youtube and not editing the title to make sense under the character limit or giving them a proper source or description. Could the mods check up on them?

The video titled "Hilichurl Shooters" on VideoExamples.Genshin Impact has some issues:

One, it's listed under "Example of VideoGame.Genshin Impact". I think it was intended for Artificial Stupidity, but I can't be sure.

Two, the video is displaying the player's UID number on the bottom-right, which is the number of their Genshin account and is considered personal information. When I uploaded the "Jean's Gale Blade" video months ago, I made sure to edit out my UID number.
