In which forum or talk page thread did we decide to start moving trope descriptions from Trope pages to Category pages? (For example. "Action Girl".)

Because if we never formally decided to do that - if it was just a mod thinking that it should happen - then we should undo it until the Tropers tell us it's okay to do it.

Some tropes are mega tropes for a TON of subtropes and related tropes. Since Category pages have the ability to automatically sort most of that built-in, a lot were moved to the Category pages to take advantage of this built-in MW feature.

MW Category pages are the functional equivalent of TVT index pages (and we do require those due to the layout of a trope wiki). I haven't moved any recently, but they've been fairly effective for the larger categories with many subcategories for sorting, so I'm not inclined to do anything unless we hash out any objections and if we have better alternatives.

That answers "why".

But I didn't ask "why".

For obvious reasons, I don't have a lot of patience with deflection debating tactics at the moment.

Please answer the question that I actually asked. It can be answered with a single URL.
