I would like to suggest replacing the current with the page image for Fancruft, as it demonstrates a clear example of the People Sit on Chairs phenomenon without relying on the caption to explain what it is. Besides, the replacement doesn't illustrate Fancruft very well to begin with, since the trope's definition concerns people who ramble about their niches when editing articles.

That's taking it a bit far.

Suggestion is way too busy for me.

Current is a nice and simple Visual Pun and also a demonstration of what would actually count as a trope.

Keep the current images on both pages. People Sit on Chairs is about tropes that lack any real narrative meaning. The image you’re suggesting be moved illustrates a genuine Wikipedia article on wood, but with a section listing unnotable appearances of the article’s subject in media. That’s what Fan Cruft is: adding irrelevant details relating to pop culture on random wiki articles, despite said details being important to only a certain number of people.

the image+caption combo in PSOC helps with telling people what is and isn't PSOC (as in, a person sitting on a chair can evoke a lot of tropes, but the act of sitting on chairs itself isn't one of them).

Once again, keep current for the same reasons as the above two.

Keep current, the suggestion works better in Fan Cruft.

This one's looking clear to call. I'll tag both pages; locking up.
