Please merge "Prince Hans Reveal" (Prince Charmless) and "Hans Reveal" (Bitch in Sheep's Clothing) since they're the same video. Hans Reveal should be the one that's left since it's more popular,
I'm much too lazy to come up with a caption.For the SpongeBob SquarePants video for "Bummer Vacation" tagged Ax-Crazy, I would like the following tropes added:
- Body Wipe: Happens at 0:21-0:27
- Laughing Mad: Happens at 1:04-1:11
- Eat the Camera: Happens at 1:07-1:09
Also, is it possible to re-title it? If so, could it be titled "I've been WAITING for you, Patrick!"
"We are all so afraid, we are all so alone, we all so need from the outside the assurance of our own worthiness to exist."You have to describe what happens, not just time stamp.
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper WallOh, got it.
- Body Wipe: SpongeBob walks closer to the camera, completely blocks it out, and then it cuts to the next scene.
- Over-the-Shoulder Murder Shot: SpongeBob does this when he says "I've been WAITING for you, Patrick!"
- Laughing Mad: SpongeBob finally loses it as he confronts Patrick, still doing this as he proceeds to Eat the Camera.

"We are all so afraid, we are all so alone, we all so need from the outside the assurance of our own worthiness to exist."I was busy on other projects, so forgive my late reply. To clarify, I think the video titled "Natsuki's Ordeal" on the My-HiME page would fit with Flashing Discretion Shot because at one point in the video after Natsuki is forced into Going Commando, there is a gust of wind that blows her skirt up, which exposes her to the people around her, but the shot is cut in such a way that the audience sees nothing, the point of Flashing Discretion Shot.

So there are a couple of videos in Big-Lipped Alligator Moment, a YMMV trope, that contain neither in-universe nor out-of-universe reactions to the trope. Please remove Big-Lipped Alligator Moment in the following videos because of this:
- "NO MONEY MEANS NO ANIMATION!" (Medium-Shift Gag)
- Also add in Voices in One Room as a secondary trope since we see the voice actors acting in one room and add media sources Dwight Schultz, Tara Strong, and John DiMaggio since they appear in the video.
- "The Perfume Department" (Perfumigation)
- Also replace the secondary trope Medium-Shift Gag with Medium Blending since the characters don't actually change their medium, only added into live action stuff while still retaining their 2D form.
- "UMA Sponge?" (Clumsy Copyright Censorship)
- "Freakazoid, Yakko & The Brain" (The Cameo)
- In addition, rename to "Freakazoid, Wakko, & The Brain" since Wakko is the one who appears and not Yakko
- Also add in Steven Spielberg as a media source since an animated version of him appears.
I'll be posting more once I go look at the other videos that have it as a primary trope.

Currently semi-active.Megatronus is Freed (Sealed Evil in a Can): Can you change the media source to Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015)?
More videos under the YMMV Big-Lipped Alligator Moment that need fixing:
- Remove Big-Lipped Alligator Moment in the following videos:
- "We've Got Cabin Fever" (Cabin Fever)
- "Bertie!" (Broken Record)
- Change the primary trope for these videos:
- "Pat and Jerry Make Out" change to Slap-Slap-Kiss - the guys argue then kiss.
- "Izzy's Got the Frizzies" change to Humidity-Induced Frizz - Isabella mentions that her frizzy hair is caused by humidity.
- Also add Gratuitous Disco Sequence as a secondary trope since Isabella dances out of the blue.
- "The Sausage Factory" change to Disney Acid Sequence - there is a trippy musical sequence with singing sausages
- Also add The Secret Life of Pets as a media source (uploader must've forgotten to add it) and the secondary trope Anthropomorphic Food (there are anthropomorphic sausages).
- "Intermission Scene" change to Intermission - self explanatory
- Also add Medium-Shift Gag as a secondary trope since the intermission scene is in 2D changed from the usual Stop-Motion style 3D of the film.
- "Help! Intermission" change to Intermission - also self explanatory
- "Arlo the Alligator Boy" change to Interspecies Romance - a cat and a cow are seen kissing.
- "Arthur" change to Interspecies Romance - a bear and a chicken are seen kissing.
- Remove the following videos (I couldn't really find another trope that suits them):
- "JUST GET THE BOY A DOG!"
- "The guy in the walls"
- "My Kingdom for a Horse!"
- "Cars 2"
- "Community Garden" (also a duplicate of "Bertie!" under Broken Record)
- There are 2 duplicate videos from The Nostalgia Critic, "Big-Lipped Alligator Moment" and "Nostalgia Critic". Delete the former since the latter is older, longer, and more popular.

Currently semi-active.The Let Me at Him! video example for Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch contains non-original audio edited in during the Photo Montage of Stitch taking pictures of Lilo beating up Mertle. The non-original audio being used is of a screaming crowd, whereas the original audio has just the two girls screaming at each other with upbeat-sounding Hawaiian music in the background. The edited video was taken from this YouTube upload.
This video
has the original, unedited audio.
Please add You Have Outlived Your Usefulness to "Chester V" (Broken Pedestal) since Chester pushes Flint into a ravine once he has his invention and no longer needs him around.
Also please add "Syndrome/Buddy Pine" from The Incredibles 1 to Cold-Blooded Torture and Electric Torture (he has one of his minions torture Mr. Incerdible for information by electrocuting him), Kick the Dog (he sends a missile to kill Mr. Incredible's family just to spite him), and Bad Boss (he has no qualms with Mr. Incredible threatening to kill one of his employees)

I'm much too lazy to come up with a caption.![]()
I've recorded a new clip with the original audio and I'm ready to upload it once the old clip (which wasn't my doing BTW) has been deleted.
The video example for Dead Person Impersonation titled "Easy for You to Sleigh" should have Improvised Weapon as a secondary trope due to Fliqpy using a Christmas tree-shaped cookie to kill Shifty.
For “The Muppets” (Time-Compression Montage), please add Rushmore Refacement due to Dirty Harry adding his face to Mount Rushmore at the 0:41 point.
Join the Five-Man Band cleanup project!I just made a page for Supertato, which had videos uploaded for it prior to the page creation, so they're sourceless. As such, would it be possible for that page to be added to the videos of:
- Big Shadow, Little Creature: "A very EVIL surprise"
- Gagging on Your Words: "Pea struggles to say sorry"
- Hey, That's My Line!: "It's EVIL tablet"
- Impostor-Exposing Test: "A Pea Test (Supertato)"
- Spot the Imposter: "Two Evil Peas?!"
- Trojan Horse "Trojan Ice Cream"

Done.
I'll also proceed to delist all of them from Videos Without a Source, now that their source has a page.
Afterwards, I'll call it a day and resume doing requests tomorrow.
135 -> 180 -> 273 -> 191 -> 188 -> 230 -> 300 -> 311Some more videos under the YMMV Big-Lipped Alligator Moment:
- Remove the following videos which couldn't find another trope that suits them:
- The Name Game
- Felix the Cat: The Movie
- Viewer Mail
- "The Lion Sleeps Tonight"
- Sgt. Kabukiman sings Opera
- Garnet and Steven's routine
- Gomez and Fester on a slide
- "Impromptu Dance Party"
- The Nozzle
- My desk is a piano
- Change the primary trope for these videos:
- Witchfinder General vs. Klaus - move to Hollywood Exorcism (an exorcism happens near the end of the video).
- Also add secondary tropes Demonic Possession and Those Wacky Nazis since the Rebel guy goes through a demonic possession and turns into a Nazi.
- Monty Python's Life of Brian - move to Standard Starship Scuffle (this was tricky to find a decent trope to replace but ended up with this which a space fight happens for the most part)
- Also add in Space Battle (for the same reason mentioned above), Unusually Uninteresting Sight (the guy in the end gets unfazed by the spaceship) and Starfish Alien (the aliens look bizarre) as secondary tropes.
- Change the description to this (because most people will not realize it's a Star Wars reference):
"Brian goes to battle in outer space with a bunch of aliens that for some reason existed during biblical times."
- Megabyte rocks out - move to Battle of the Bands (which is currently listed as a secondary trope)
- Witchfinder General vs. Klaus - move to Hollywood Exorcism (an exorcism happens near the end of the video).
- Remove Big-Lipped Alligator Moment in "Squidward's Toenail" (Agony of the Feet)
And I think that's all for BLAM.
Currently semi-active."Dave Grohl in FRESH POTS!" was uploaded under Must Have Caffeine... as in, the entire video, including the text epilogue. I know it's short, but that's not allowed, right?
For "The Strong Stars have lead" (for "Not Making This Up" Disclaimer), it has NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer.Web Original as a media source. Please remove it, and add Recap.Homestar Runner Goes For The Gold instead.

Done to here, minus adding Everyone Has Standards to that video because it's impossible to figure out the presence of that trope without knowing beforehand why Chi Fu is showing an example (there would have to be a some sort of lampshade or acknowledgement, whether from that character or another, that helped us pin it down).
135 -> 180 -> 273 -> 191 -> 188 -> 230 -> 300 -> 311
