Needs Help: Animation Lead Time

Go To

To-do list:

  • Move correct examples from Animation Lead Time to Production Lead Time. Since it's now Trivia, move examples to Trivia subpages as needed. Inline wicks in non-Trivia examples are still allowed.

    Original post 
Considering that the trope Animation Lead Time involves behind the scenes stuff (i.e. the time it takes for animated projects to be made, rendering pop culture references dated by the time it's released), I feel the trope should be classified as a Trivia trope. I've already spoken with several tropers on the subject and they feel a similar way as well.

I'll go ahead and start moving into the Trivia tab the examples I had crosswicked from this page to the corresponding works' pages, then. smile

Maybe rename to "Production Lead Time" as well, to alleviate confusion about the inclusion of non-animated properties?

[up][up][up][tup]

We don't have that many wicks either (comparatively) so I could see an argument for a rename.

Agreed. Production Lead Time, sounds more appropriate considering that there are plenty of examples that aren't exclusive to animation.

I voted for rename because I like "Production Lead Time", too.

All right, since there are enough votes via posts, let's skip the crowner and change it to Production Lead Time now. I'll move the pages.

Edit: All right, it's moved. Here are the wicks.

Okay, moved all the unproblematic wicks.

140 wicks remain, these might need to be moved to Trivia, or are just other special cases (WMG, Sandboxes, Time Immemorial...)

Also, I believe there's a video that needs to be moved.

Edited by FernandoLemon on Jan 14th 2023 at 12:52:06 PM

I'd like to apologize for all this.

Okay, got rid of the last pothole, 32 wicks remain.

Outside of the 6 wicks on Sandbox, Time Immemorial, and WMG, the other 26 need to be either alphabetized or moved to Trivia/.

It's been mentioned that Animation Lead Time, despite its name, is not exclusive to animation. Should it be renamed?
