The Awesome Moments pages are for moments that tropers find awesome. It's alright if another troper disagrees, but deleting an entry on the sole basis that you disagree with it is against the rules of the wiki. It is also not a place to complain about how much you dislike a show.

In the interests of avoiding an edit war, I will wait 24 hours before restoring the examples that Crossfire 1776 deleted.

While I agree that complaining about a show is not okay, I have to point out that neither is excessive gushing. A breathless blow-by-blow analysis of every awesome moment becomes tiresome real quick. One must try to find juuuust the right amount of gushing necessary.

I agree with you restoring what Crossfire deleted, since they're, as you said, complaining about not liking the ending. That said, I think a few things should remain. For instance: Sam is barely an Action Survivor, so him fighting through an army of wights is highly improbable. And Bran's arc is controversial (to put it mildly).

when the page is editable again, someone edit season 8 episode 3 reference to Lyanna Mormont "charging into battle" because that didn't happen. Beric was pointing at Arya struggling on a roof and crawling into a window.

Is it just me, or are we a bit too... enthusiastic with adding moments?

Later episodes are essentially recaps because every single scene has a CMOA listed, and damn near every even slightly major action or dialogue is listed. And it leads to pretty minor things getting listed, like a character getting punched once and not being out of the fight. Or a character standing there agape when he sees the dragon. I know these are subjective, but is "literally doing nothing" possibly a CMOA? Is it a misplaced Visual Effects Of Awesome?

But really, when we list pretty much everything as a CMOA is kinda dilutes the term. If everything's a CMOA, then nothing really is that awesome.

I have a similiar sensation. YMMV page and all, but people go a bit overboard sometimes.

Part of the problem lies in the section not being called "CROWNING moment of" (which implies excepcionality) anymore, but simply "awesome"

"When everything is special, nothing is"
