All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part VI

Just noticed this paragraph on the "List of Works That Need Summary" pages:

Also take note, try to include a work in its media of initial incarnation. For example, instead of placing The Movie of the Book in the movie category place the work under the Literature section. Another example being Anime, if it was a Manga first place it under Manga. The notable exception to this rule is either when a work's derivative incarnation is more widely known than the original (in which case please leave a note mentioning such), or when a page exists for the original version but not the adaptation (in which case a note should also be made so that the creator can either add a section to the pre-existing page or decide to create a new one).

Is that our policy, or should I change that to ask for listings on all applicable pages?

EDIT: Here's the replacement that I would use:

Sometimes a work has versions in more than one medium (for example, ''[[The Tick]'' has [[The Tick (comic)|comic book], [[The Tick (animation)|animation], and [[The Tick (television)|live-action] versions). If your example is like this, please list it under all the appropriate media, with the media type in brackets after the name (for example, [[The Tick (comic)], [[The Tick (animation)], and [[The Tick (television)]).
