Paging ~Amonimus to the thread.
Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.This seems like a complaining magnet, and combined with the misuse I am in favor of disambiguating.

She/Her | Currently cleaning N/AI'm surprised it's not YMMV already; moving it there would kind of be solving the wrong problem.
Moving it to YMMV won't solve the Walkthrough Mode-like examples or the complaining though.

This has survived this long without being kicked into YMMV. But I also vote to skip that move and detropify Fake Balance.
The disambig should would point to High-Tier Scrappy and Low-Tier Letdown instead of Tier Induced Scrappy now.
It looks like I overlooked the fact that the OP mentioned Tier Induced Scrappy (which is now a disambiguation page itself) instead of the pages it should be split into. Yes, the disambiguation page should point to those two pages instead of pointing to another disambiguation page.

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.I wasn't sure if disambigs can point to other disambigs (we sometimes point to indexes). If they can't, then replacing one with both is fine.
TroperWall / WikiMagic CleanupIt's better not to link to any disambig at all (aside from redirects), so with fewer visible links around, no one will think to wick them elsewhere.
I agree, especially since we'd only be listing two pages instead of one if we listed the split targets separately, which isn't a significant increase, and it would save people time to be able to go to those pages directly instead of having to navigate to another page before navigating to them.
Redirecting to disambiguation pages is usually done when we deprecate a trope without cutting it completely, but can't think of a single page to redirect it to, and can't think of anything that would go on a new disambiguation page that isn't already on another.

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.(I think people didn't read my comment closely enough. I said that moving to YMMV would be solving the wrong problem, in response to the OP mentioning it.)
You say people, but only a single person (selkies) responded to your previous post by saying moving to YMMV wouldn't solve the Walkthrough Mode-like examples or the complaining. What problem were you referring to if it wasn't what selkies mentioned, and what is your proposed solution for it?
For that matter, I'm not entirely sure what you want to do here or what you're trying to argue, because your posts in this thread have been vague and perfunctory. If you're arguing for a YMMV move and arguing against disambiguating when you're responding to the idea of a YMMV move, you could at least explicitly say that (and if that is how you're voting, it would help to say why if you want to convince others to change their own votes).

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.Pretty sure he's on the disambig train, which has been unanimous so far (and the problem referenced is "this page's very existence").
I believe Morgan Wick was
- Just making an observation that the trope was interestingly not YMMV before being threaded, despite potentially being subjective.
- Commenting that the second option in the OP, "Move to YMMV" wouldn't address complaining, the thread's category, even if it did happen, so he agrees it wasn't viable in the first place.
He's not proposing or arguing anything.
