"Red's hurt foot" under Accidental Dance Craze has had Agony of the Feet removed, but it should still have Hurt Foot Hop since Red jumps around in pain throughout the video.

"Dynamite Gal" under Trauma Button should have Get Out! and Innocently Insensitive as secondary tropes. The latter is present throughout the video when Felix accidentally reminds Calhoun of her lost fiance and the former happens near the end when Calhoun orders him to vacate her ship.

"Wreck-It Ralph" under You Wouldn't Hit a Guy with Glasses should have Exact Words and Actually Pretty Funny as secondary tropes. Being a short clip, both of these happen throughout the video. When King Candy asks Ralph if he'd hit a guy with glasses, Ralph proceeds to hit him with the glasses' frames, which Candy admits is "well-played".

"HMS Albert" on Ship Out of Water, "Souma Kazuya" on Name Order Confusion, and "Souma Kazuya" on Pragmatic Hero all need to have their sources updated to Literature.How A Realist Hero Rebuilt The Kingdom due to a namespace move.

"Traumatized cat (Pluto's Judgement Day)" under Trauma Button has Pluto as one of the sources, which should be deleted because it already has Pluto the Pup as a source. It should also have Pluto's Judgement Day as a source, as that's the specific cartoon this clip comes from.

"Sandy in My Eyes" in Sand in My Eyes should have Ocular Gushers as a secondary trope. Around the middle of the video, Sandy cries a shower of tears, which floods her helmet.

The Better Off Ted and Stargate SG-1 videos on Lie Detector both list some of the actors in the clips as media sources. Those need to be removed.

"Missed Bullet" in Bait-and-Switch Gunshot should have Accidental Murder and Faceplanting into Food as secondary tropes. Near the end of the video, when Bebe's gun goes off, it shoots Kenny in the back of the head (though this wasn't part of Bebe's plan) and causes him to faceplant into his bowl of cereal. Since it's from the episode "The List", it should have South Park S 11 E 14 The List as a source.

"Kennys Sacrifice" under Use Your Head should have Heroic Suicide as a secondary trope. Throughout the clip, Kenny frees Moses and the Scout group from a conch shell by smashing his head into it, which kills him in the process. Also, the title should be changed to "Kenny's Sacrifice" to make it grammatically correct.

"No Hope" under Sudden Downer Ending should have Death by Despair as a secondary trope. At the end of the video, Nelson is so distraught from viewing his team being defeated that he utters, "No hope..." and dies right there.

"South Park" under Love Hurts should have Heroic BSoD as a secondary trope. Throughout the video, after Wendy has lef him, Stan becomes gloomy and refuses to leave his bed or even look at his friends (though he does talk about how heartbroken he is about his predicament).

"Bobby" under Heroic Sacrifice should be moved to Heroic Suicide since Bobby committed suicide by making himself explode to free Olivia.

For the video, "Hell Valley" for Villain World, can you add Infodump as a secondary trope? The video Marty sees outside Biff's casino qualifies as this, providing a quick recap of Biff's rise to power.

Doing these.

~Tropers/Twiddler I am skipping some of these source additions because of the deprecation of Machinima/, so once the pages are moved we will have to do these again. Please request them after that.

~StarSword We are discouraging superfluous Creator/ additions. If it's something about their career or there's no more specific media source (eg. a stand-up comedy routine for a comedian) then you can link a creator page. But if they're one of four actors in the scene it's not necessary.

New video has been uploaded to Dramatic Wind, featuring Phoenix Wright's objection as an example.

Not sure if it might also count as Blow You Away, since Anime.Ace Attorney blurs the lines between it being a case of dramatic wind, or actual objection-based wind powers.

The video has embedded subtitles containing the translated audio, however, I don't believe the site has the ability to play those.

"The First Tantrum" on Tantrum Throwing is likely misuse for tantrums in general. Objects are not thrown in the video, a character just beats stuff up with a club. I don't think handheld weapons count, right?

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

[up] Not unless it involves said weapon being thrown. If it's just smashing things up, it seems more in line with Percussive Therapy. Maybe whoever put that in got misled by the name?

One of the two eponymous videos for This Is Spın̈al Tap (the one with an amplifier for the thumbnail) lists Up To Eleven as its main trope, likely due to the fact that it was the Trope Namer. However, since Up To Eleven was renamed Exaggerated Trope, the video no longer serves its intended purpose.

A cursory glance at the page for the film shows that the corresponding dialogue is listed under Comically Missing the Point, so the video should be moved there.

"Harry Potter - I Love Magic" on Bigger on the Inside and "Death of Sirius Black" for Moment of Silence have links to Harry Potter – Harry James Potter and those media sources need to be removed due to unnecessary links to character pages.

Also on Moment of Silence, remove Harry Potter – Order of the Phoenix Members as a media source for the same reason.

The video "Mysta & Mika diffuse a bomb" from Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes suffers from Rouge Angles of Satin; the title should be "Mysta & Mika defuse a bomb".

On that note, "Fred Flinestone Dieing" (Pibby, Memetic Mutation) has two title errors and a bad description. Should be "Fred Flintstone Dying", although I'm not sure what to do with the description.

And as is usual for crossover appearances, it should add The Flintstones as a source.
