Needs Help: Concept Art

Concept Art has no examples despite not being on No On-Page Examples, but it does have 41 wicks. It was brought up in this ATT query that agreed that a TRS is necessary to decide what to do. I suppose it could be a Definition-Only Page (not seeing value in Trivia that isn't already covered by What Could Have Been, but maybe I'm wrong).

Opening

Definition only sounds good.

This is a production trivia, so Definition-Only Pages makes sense. As a trope we have What Could Have Been, Bonus Material and Concept Art Gallery where those are packaged.

I think it should be both Trivia and definition-only, like what we did with Model Sheet last year. (I'm surprised it's not already the former since it's supplementary material and not part of the main work.) I feel like examples could just be listed under What Could Have Been with inline wicks for this page (as with definition-only wicks in general).

Move it to trivia + make it def-only.

I agree with making this trivia and definition-only. It's close enough to universal to not be worth collecting examples, and it's obviously a production detail rather than anything you'd see in the finished work.

Trivia + definition-only sounds perfect.

Trivia and definition only

Let me paint my Concept Art on my drawing monitor.

I'll tag this masterpiece as Trivia + Definition Only

Is making this Trivia necessary when DO is sufficient? I'm not against it, just seems kind of pointless to me.

to DO at the very least.

I mean, I do believe that making it Trivia is necessary, because it's certainly not a trope. So yes, do both.

MST3K Mantra and Bellisario's Maxim weren't stripped of their YMMV status when they were made definition-only, so there's precedent for something being YMMV or Trivia in addition to definition-only.

Edit: Plus, the idea behind making it both Trivia and definition-only was because this often goes hand-in-hand with What Could Have Been, which itself is Trivia, and thus could be linked to in examples of that (rather than dedicated bullet points) when creators have shown concept art for scrapped plans instead of merely talking about them.

I updated the indexing. Not sure if the descriptor I left on Main.Trivia is good enough, so feel free to make further changes.

Alright, I don't think any of the wicks use Concept Art as an example name, from a glance through.

I can say more than at glance, and all wicks are either indexes or in-example links, so we may be done.

I don't see any wicks using the page as a trope so I am going to close this as resolved.
