Done as much as I could. Things I had to deal with:

  • Changing curly brackets to Wiki Word
  • Moving Characters soft-split to Characters/
  • Folderizing character profiles and removing spoilers from names
  • Removing empty character profiles (Not sure if I had to comment them out)
  • Commenting out context-less examples
  • Adding missing header for the trope lists
  • Changing wrong indentation
  • Italicizing work names
  • Removing Justifying Edit (including self-admitted not-actually-examples)
  • Fixing wrong "the" alphabetization
  • Removing plain trope misuse and YMMV on main
  • Clearing trope names being potholed as in-work jokes
  • Adding capitalization to in-universe names.

Can someone do a lookthrough to see if there's anything else I've missed? There are way more many partial-context examples, talking to the reader, natter and self-insert humor, than I have a strength to fix. I'm also yet to index the character pages. I also don't know if "upcoming" books are already out, or it's safe to cut/Darth.

Last bump for opinions before I move on. Anything else to do here? Some pages could be in stub range if you really heavy down on example cleaning.
