Opened.
Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.Cut. I also don't think a miscellaneous title supertrope is a good idea.
Trope Cut!

Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576Hmm, but exclamation marks aren't symbols, they're punctuation signs, which is partially why Questioning Title? and this trope are their own separate tropes.
I also think there might be tropeworthiness issues with Lucky Charms Title too.
Cut
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness- If we can't make a exclamation mark into something tropeworthy, then it's just a symbol as well?

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.Cut! Trope!
Kirby is awesome.Looking at the inbounds, it has 4,543 inbounds. So I think it's safe to cut, but correct me if I'm wrong.
She/Her | Currently cleaning N/AI think cutting this is fine.
It's been three days. Crowner?

Macron's notesCalling in favor of cutting.
Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.Double posting because I went ahead and cut the page ahead of time to make dewicking easier.
Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.<400 wicks remaining.
Vehicle-Based Characterization | Grief-Induced Split | Locker MailYup. Finished the Manga/ and Podcast/ namespaces. Still working on the Music/ ones.
What do I do about the sandboxes (Sandbox.Title Tropes, Sandbox.Trope Pantheons Rework, etc.) and Pantheon.Titles?
The Sandbox.Title Tropes wick can just removed. I asked the Pantheon thread for help with the Pantheon wicks, which we usually do if a deprecated trope has a deity dedicated to it.

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.
Crown Description:
There has been some trope worthiness concerns regarding Excited Show Title because the trope is just a list of titles that contain in exclamation point.
To-do list:
Okay, so Excited Show Title suffers from a lack of purpose. The description doesn't have much going for it nor adds any significance to this trope, making it look like nothing but "this type of titles exist," which is clear in the examples. A good example would be like "The [title] has 3 exclamation marks (or wtv number) to grab the audience's attention/because it's being shouted by the protagonist/it implies the absurdity of the situation the plot is about/etc."
This is further proven in the wick check, where:
- 53/60 or 88% are just ZCEs and potholes to works with this pattern.
- 3/60 or 5% are examples that provide useful context beyond the work's title.
- 4/60 or 7% are misuse and other unsorted examples.
The trope is just a big mess of zero context examples according to the site rules which add nothing new and has a big alarming number of examples with no context at all (13 wicks in total), which is expected when you can look at the work page name and know the "context". There are very few examples with the barest amount of useful context that explains the work's title. Strangely, some misuse the trope for names of characters and other things that aren't titles but these make about 7% of the wick sample so it's not a huge deal.There's another future (?) solution I thought of since I'm bringing other non-tropeworthy Title Tropes to TRS, which is to make one supertrope of all common types of titles that don't need their own trope but can be included in the supertrope which will be an index or sth. Thoughts?
Wick check:
Excited Show Title's description doesn't add any tropeworthiness to the trope and it's just not noteworthy. This wick check will check for how many examples have actual useful examples beyond the work's name and how many are just ZCEs.Wicks checked: 60/60.
