All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part VIII

[robkelk]

Oh yeah. What kinds of things can we do navboxes for? Right now we just have the trope lifecycle and the Oscars. Continue the award theme? Emmys, Grammys, Tonys?

Pulitizers, Gillers, Peabodys, "Canada Reads"?
Grammys, Junos, FPRAs?

 

There's a reason I earlier suggested the EGOT, naturally as a wiki we can cater to as many as we so wish, but as a practical basis we need to see things from a more "mainstream" route per significance per public perception; with room to expand as necessary or warranted.

The Pulitizer is extremely "mainstream", even outside of the country where it's awarded - it's second only to the Nobel.

As for the other awards, I'm completely in favour of anything that makes All The Tropes less US-centric.

Hmmmmm... this one might be too big, even if it's set as collapsed by default: http://allthetropes.org/wiki/Template: ... y_Cartoons
Scrap it altogether or drop sections from it?

Three different templates if you want to keep it (whether you do is your own judgement but I would recommend re-naming any of these templates to those that are less cast-iron and objective as "noteworthy".

1. 50 Greatest Cartoons + runners-up
   
2. 100 Greatest Looney Toons
   
3. Censored Eleven
   

I think that would suffice as both concise as templates and useful for putting as footers in articles.

That works for the 50 and 100 lists, but the "Censored Eleven" only has the one page currently and the subject matter is such that Wiki Magic might not be able to work.

And if these cartoons aren't noteworthy, I don't know what would be...
