Does "Scootaloo is a chicken" fit better under Ascended Meme or Meme Acknowledgment? My interpretation is that since nopony says anything about chickens or the cart specifically reflecting Scootaloo, it should be the latter; Scootaloo liking chickens doesn't make her one any more than Rarity liking swans makes her an ugly duckling.

If Scootaloo had made reference to the quote from "Stare Master", this might be both Ascended Meme and Theme Mobile...

Double-checking the tropes, Meme Acknowledgment is trivia, and is when some members of the crew acknowledge a meme, but outside the show. Here, it has crept inside an episode itself, and is certainly not accidental, so it falls into Ascended Meme.

Should we choose a consistent spelling of cart/kart throughout the recap page? "Cart" is used in the title and by soapbox derby racers, but "kart" is the spelling used at amusement parks (most likely for the Xtreme Kool Letterz).

I was puzzled by the two different spellings too, that explains it. Yeah, we should avoid confusing casual readers and stick to "cart".

Fixed; the only "kart" is the reference to Mario Kart.
