Discussion History WesternAnimation / TronUprising

Hi! I\\\'m one of the tropers who\\\'s been editing the Newsflesh page since \\\'\\\'Blackout\\\'\\\' came out; adding quotes, some other tropes, among other stuff. Since I know I\\\'m not the only one editing the page (and I think there really should be more), I\\\'d like to bring up some topics for discussion:

* Frankly, if the Newsflesh page had its own trope page, I think the first trope would be {{Department of Redundancy Department}}. There are a few references that keep being repeated across different tropes - the setting of Newsflesh, Shaun\\\'s, um... condition in \\\'\\\'Deadline\\\'\\\', among others. Is there a way to minimize these redundancies? I think in the case of the description of Shaun, maybe it can be pinned down to just one specific trope, or hopefully at least two, separated with a slash.

* One of the most annoying parts of the Newsflesh page, for me, is the ParentalIssues trope. Aside from the obvious DisappearedDad and MissingMom, most of it is just a very confusing mess of finding different ways to say the same thing - that Georgia and Shaun have a lot of unresolved conflicts with their parents. In addition, \\\'\\\'Blackout\\\'\\\' depicts a very enlightening resolution of sorts when Shaun returns to the Masons\\\' house. However, the tropes which that part of the story may have touched on can\\\'t really seem to be worked into the current structure of the page. Maybe I just don\\\'t have a better grasp of the ParentalIssues trope itself yet, but I think something really needs to change with this section of the page.

* A minor one: I\\\'m not sure that [[spoiler:Dr. Thomas]] definitely used a gun to kill himself. As in the quote I added in the Driven to Suicide section, all he says is that \\\"I am about to get blood all over the walls.\\\" Given that he was [[spoiler:a doctor]], I think he may have just used a [[spoiler:scalpel to slit his wrists]], among other creative ways of suicide a [[spoiler:doctor]] may come up with. My point is that he never mentions having a gun in the first place, much less using it to off himself. Then again, as I said, this is just a minor issue.
