Usagi's done something stupid again (she/her)
Should Aabria Iyengar get her own section on the Dungeon Master section of the Character Sheets page? I know other guest GMs haven't but they only did one shots and things whereas Aabria was the GM for the entire ExU mini-campaign. I also saw this
fan art by cgkpluie which we could ask to use?
Maybe we should collapse Crit Role setting tropes and the Critical Role Tal Dorei Campaign Setting page into one overall page for Exandria as a setting?

I don't see any reason to. The Tal'Dorei page specifically only lists stuff from Tal'Dorei that is described in the book and not also in the show (at least, that's the way it was when I made it). Hence why there I didn't include entries for Percy or Grog's title under Overly Long Name or any entires about Vox Machina's Vestiges under Evolving Weapon. Any stuff just from the book gets listed there, anything from the show goes on the page for the show.
Along with the recent splitting off of Campaign One and Campaign Two, we now have the Mini-Season of "Exandria Unlimited". Not quite a one-shot, and set in the regular setting of the other two campaigns, but do we need to start building out pages for this as well?

Hey, I'm a fairly new troper (that is, I'm not that new, but I've mostly done low-key edits like adding tropes), and I've never split a page into multiple pages before. I was getting an error message saying that the page is too long, so I tried to make separate pages for Campaigns 1 & 2. Could somebody check my work? It looks pretty messy right now...

There've been a few flip-flops lately over including Taryon on the campaign 1 cast list, due to the "no spoilers above the examples line" policy, which is fair. Is there ever a point where it's assumed that that is no longer a spoiler so we therefore add it to the cast list, or is it left off the main page in perpetuity and only revealed in the Character listings?

I think the point when a spoiler is no longer a spoiler is when it's common knowledge, at least within the particular demographic. Given the likelihood of new fans getting into CR because of the new campaign there may well be an influx of people who don't know about Taryon. We therefore probably ought to leave the situation as is.

in that case, what about caduceus? similar situation, definitely a spoiler for people who don't know anything about c2, but honestly i think most people probably know coming in that molly dies, and cad's been here much longer than molly at this point
Is it about time to replace the image on the main page with something more up-to-date? It hasn't been changed since 2015(!!!) and is really showing its age. Orion hasn't been a credited cast member for over two years, the whole production has grown and changed so much, and we're more than 50 episodes into an entirely new campaign!
With the whole "Legend of Vox Machina" kickstarter pulling in a lot of attention, I think we should change it to a more recent cast photo or logo. Maybe I could photoshop a vertical-aligned version of the new banner on their Twitter page and web site, and put the logo on there too?
Is it too early to create a separate section for "The Legend of Vox Machina" kickstarter under the various Funny/Awesome/Tearjerker pages?

Technically "moments" page are supposed to be moments/scenes in the work itself, not meta moments or such.
But truth be told moment pages are already garbage so not like anyone really cares.
On the Recap page I'm tempted to make the note descriptions the official descriptions from the Alpha and Youtube videos, instead of the ad hoc descriptions we have been using.
What do people think?

Should we split examples on the main work page by season, like it is already the case for some of the other pages? I would be prepared to do it, now that there aren't that many entries on season 2 yet.

Ok, I just did it. I hope this makes finding and adding tropes to particular seasons easier.

With the release of the new campaign guide, should any tropes pertaining to it be kept here, or on a new page for the guide?

A little overdue but we could potentially create a Literature/CriticalRole page to cover the Campaign Guide and the ComicBook/CriticalRoleVoxMachinaOrigins for the comic. I'm not sure people are making entries on those for it to be worth splitting them from the main entry though.

Since there are no spoilers allowed above the examples, what's an appropriate wait period before listing the cast of campaign 2, to allow people time to avoid spoilers? Should the new set of characters be listed at all, or should the description have some sort of folders to collapse cast lists down to conserve room?

I've also been thinking about the page intro section. I don't feel that the names of main characters should be spoilers, with the obvious exception of if they reveal part of the plot. The story is about these seven characters, I think we should have their names in the intro now. The question is what to do about the names from campaign 1, do we replace them entirely or just rearrange to fit in the new names?
Far more revealing is the Arc breakdown in the intro, which I think we should get rid of entirely if only to keep things tidy. If people are that desperate they can look at the Recap page.

Hmmm, good point. I had thought maybe sticking the arc overviews in a folder at the top of the Recap page, but maybe making each one an intro blurb to the recap listings? That way there's a bit less spoilery summary of each arc, and then the recap episode listings go into more detail if someone wants to?
I apologize if I put something in the wrong place; I can't see without my glasses.
I see you've done it, looks good. I've just removed the bullet points from the text on the Recap page to neaten it up as they weren't needed any more.

Where is the video of the first Battle Royale? I can only find #2 and 3 on You Tube.

The naming conventions of the Moments subpages need to be cleaned up. Campaign 1 has at least two subgroups because of different naming conventions, and that only gets worse on the arc level.
