The description of the video "Send Men To Summon Worms" from Sand Worm has the word "Fremen" misspelled as "Freman". I ask for this to be corrected.

Please can the following RWBY videos be removed for trope misuse?
- Break Them by Talking: "Cinder Fall's Speech": The trope is supposed to be about how a speech breaks someone because they cannot deny the words that have been said. All this video does is cover Cinder's villainous Beacon speech. This doesn't break any of the heroes, and makes them fight back and realise she's behind everything.
- Kill the Cutie: "Vytal Festival Finals" video; while this establishes a character death, it does nothing to establish the "cutie" part of the trope. The trope description mentions how a work depicts a "cutie" in the run-up to their death. The video is just "shocking character death" and not Kill the Cutie.
- Strange Minds Think Alike: "Combat Skirts" video; this does not demonstrate the trope at all. The trope is supposed to be about one character accidentally echoing another character during a completely different scenario, the point being that the two individuals use the same strange logic to reach the same conclusion independently of each other. The video is just two skirt-wearing girls bonding against the accusation that a skirt stops a girl from looking "combat ready".
For Hypocritical Singing, the Nostalgia Critic video does not count, as the hypocrisy is not acknowledged in universe.
^^Done.
^Done, but please name the video in the future.

"The Reason You Suck" Speech: "We're Done" should have the source moved from Diary of a Wimpy Kid to Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

Same for the I Was Beaten by a Girl clip, called "Patty beats Greg at wrestling".
Edit: Ignore the above, I just found that it was moved there.
The "Powerpuff Girls '16 [Bubbles and Buttercup's Deal]" clip under Deal with the Devil should have the The Powerpuff Girls source removed from it since it specifically pertains to the 2016 show. So should the Hustling the Mark clip called "Powerpuff Girls '16 [Professor Hustles Ace]".
The Denied Food as Punishment clip "Sonoko's Dream" is sideways.

On ASDF Movie, "Nice hat" needs to have its trope changed to Impossible Theft; Impossible Thief is a redirect to that page and the video consequently doesn't show up there.

"I Hate You Jesus" is seemingly yet another instance of a video accidentally being uploaded for [Trope Name] (I'm guessing that it was meant to be for Villain Song). It should also be sourced to Moral Orel.
back lol
Karmic Death: "Zola Hacks Ultron" needs to have one of its sources changed from WesternAnimation/WhatIf to WesternAnimation/WhatIf2021.
I believe that it's more specifically an example of "The Hero Sucks" Song, and should be linked to that instead.
Done to here.

- Stylistic Suck: "Friday Night Funkin but Bad" is unsourced and should be sourced to, well, Friday Night Funkin', But Bad.
- Glitch Episode: "Glitcher" is unsourced and should be sourced to Vs Hex Mod.

Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureVentoAureo has been renamed to Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureGoldenWind, so all the video examples on Jo Jos Bizarre Adventure Vento Aureo need to have their sources edited.
Sent a request to the admins.

The example of Abandoned Area on VideoExamples.Kirby titled "Kirby and the Forgotten Land" seems to be the entire trailer, which is forbidden under Video Guidelines.
Deleted.

In the description for “The Button” (from Ren & Stimpy) under Big Red Button, the word “Ten” should be “Ren”.
“Sly Cooper and the Thievius Ra” under Stealth Game is cut off because the full title “Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus” doesn’t fit. Maybe just “Sly Cooper”? Also, Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus should be added to the source list, and the current source is also cut off and should be changed to Recap.Sly Cooper And The Thievius Raccoonus Mission 04 Fire In The Sky if it fits.

The "Chase Turns Around And Faints" clip under Fainting is unsourced; it belongs to PAW Patrol. Also, that's not the right trope, it should go under Faint in Shock because Chase was so surprised. Come to think of it, all of the video examples under Fainting belong in Faint in Shock. The "Dude peed his pants!" clip under Bring My Brown Pants also belongs in Warm Water Whiz.

Is this from the same guy AGAIN? At this rate, if I was a video moderator, I would suspend video uploading privileges for him for improper grammar, and failure to source clips.
However, I would not remove the videos, as some of them match the trope.

But Faint in Shock is a subtrope of Fainting. Specifically, it's when someone faints out of sheer emotion like surprise. All the video examples under Fainting have a character fainting in surprise.
On Actually Quite Catchy, the one video ("The ChubChubs") has no description at all. The one in the examples can be reused to fill this up:
Thanks in advance.
