As Pokémon Sword and Shield is locked, would this entry do?
- Shout-Out: On November 8th 2019 (a full week before the release date), the official Pokemon channel on Youtube uploaded Toby Fox's contribution to the game
, and in its description they not only cited him as the creator of Undertale but also said that they "hope it fills you with determination", referencing Undertale's central element as well.
Hollywood Tactics, Literature, World War Z, yet another bullet point:
- Running the other guy over with your armored ride was an old idea when Alexander the Great was around. Tanks were literally built in the WWI era to overrun infantry positions, and those infantry were far more dangerous than zombies. The US Army has numerous vehicles which, when sealed, would be utterly impervious to blows from the zombies. Given how zombies work in this setting, heavy fighting vehicles and tanks would literally be able to mulch them in droves while the zombies charge the vehicles in an utterly futile attempt to get to the humans inside. The vehicles never simply plow the zombies down even though overrunning infantry is an obvious role for armor. note
Please cut the Metal Gear stuff from Video Games G To P.
Please lock Metal Gear and add it to Comic Books for examples with their own pages (or you can unlock Comic Books and I can do it myself, like I did for Video Games).
At Literature R to Z, for The Silver Kiss, please change Creepy Child to Undead Child.

~TheDocCC, feels a bit lengthy, particularly with the note. Anyway it can be trimmed down a bit?
~ACW, I unlocked Monster.ComicBooks.
~ravioliluigi, in cases of creator and work pages, we encourage redlinks so that, if the page gets created in the future, the link is already there.
Per TRS
, Main.Timestamps Are Your Friends was moved to Administrivia.Timestamps Are Your Friends, so it needs to be added to the main Administrivia page.
Since Examples Are Not Recent is locked, I'd like to have the following sentence (or something like it) added to the page:
"While Timestamps Are Your Friends on forums, they aren't present on wiki pages, so they're of no help there."
Edit: Previously messed up the wording of my edit request. I fixed it.

- Avengers: Endgame (Dragonis Prime): Thanos maintains the guile of his canon counterpart in this alternate telling of the film. After wiping out half of all life in the universe, Thanos retired to the Garden in peace. When the Avengers arrive seeking revenge, Thanos destroys all but the Reality Stone to prevent them from undoing his work. After he's killed by Thor, the Thanos of an alternate timeline learns about the history of his counterpart and sets about to assemble his Infinity Gauntlet more efficiently. He helps start Ragnarok to kill Thor, and murders Eitri before he could forge a weapon that could kill him. Thanos fails to collect the Time Stone and spends the next few years balancing worlds one at a time while crushing the rebellion led by the surviving Avengers. Realizing the main timeline would have the Time Stone he needs, Thanos travels to the Avengers Compound and tries to recruit Steve Rogers to his side. When that fails, he strips Carol Danvers of her powers and has Ebony Maw destroy his home dimension to keep him focused on his new goal of wiping out half of all life across the entire multiverse.

Ghost wicks to StrawFeminist
:
If so, then we need a new place for this to point to:
DarthWiki.How Not To Write A Trope Page:
- [[Idiot or if the page even actually exists.]]
If that's made, then The Idiot should be a redirect:
* The trope known as TheDitz, for stupid characters.
* The novel translated as ''Literature/TheIdiot'', and is called "Идиот" in the original Russian.
* The 1977 musical album, ''Music/TheIdiot''.
If a direct wick has led you here, please correct the link so that it points to the corresponding article.
——
Apparently
, The Ditz is very specific.
