All The Tropes:Pages needing standard headers

These pages need some sort of attention to make them look like the other pages on the wiki.

Since DynamicPageList 3 returns a maximum of 500 pages per list, two of the lists on this page are woefully incomplete as of May 12, 2020 - fix some entries and Purge the page, and the lists will auto-append more entries to grow back to 500 entries until finally reaching the (non-existent) pages sorted after "—And He Built a Crooked House—".

Ideally, we want all of these sections to show "There are no pages on this list."

Note: In order to be carried out successfully, this cleanup requires human judgment at every step of the process; it cannot be automated. The fix is not always to put the appropriate section header template onto a page - sometimes, the fix is to change a page header template, or to change a page to a Category.

Tropes that do not use the "examples", "notableexamples", "genreworks", "examples on subpages", or "page should be category" template

Templates (which should not be "cleaned up") have been excluded from the search.

Subpages have been excluded by excluding any page with a slash in its name. We are aware that this might produce false negatives.

For the list of pages that should be turned into categories, see Category:Pages that should be categories

There are 4 pages on this list:

Tropes that need better descriptions

These tropes have the "Needs a Better Description" category, either raw or in the "Needs More Info" template. Since this list does not include Trope Workshop pages, it should be empty. The quick-and-dirty patch for these is to move them back into the Trope Workshop. The actual fix is to give them better descriptions (which is what moving them back into the Trope Workshop is an implicit request to have happen eventually).

Works that do not use the "tropelist", "gameshowtropes", "franchisetropes", "creatortropes", or "page should be category" templates

As of August 9, 2019, templates (which should not be "cleaned up") have been excluded from the search.

Subpages have been excluded by excluding any page with a slash in its name. We are aware that this might produce false negatives.

Pages about Other Sites that do not use the "website" template

Disambiguation Pages

The header templates should be removed - disambig pages shouldn't have header templates. However, something needs to be done about subpages if any exist, before the header can be removed. As of October 3, 2019, all 4 pages on this list had subpages.

Redirects

The header templates should be removed - redirects shouldn't have header templates. (Or categories, either.)

It's wiki habit to remove unused redirects, too. Not a policy, though - and especially not where the redirect is a Real Life term that redirects to an Esoteric Trope Name.

Pages in category "Tropes Needing Examples" that do not use the template "Trope Needs Examples"

There are no pages on this list.

Pages in category "Needs More Examples" that do not use the template "Needs More Examples"

There are no pages on this list.

Pages in category "Heartwarming" that do not use the template "Heartwarming"

Unlike the other lists on this page, this cleanup could be automated - all that's required is adding {{heartwarming}} to the page somewhere.

Unless the page name begins with "The ". Those pages need to be manually double-checked to make sure they have the DEFAULTSORT tag... and so do the other pages that are subpages of the Heartwarming page's parent page.

There are 500 pages on this list:
