All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XXV

[robkelk]

Just under the wire...

I finally got fed up with the lack of progress being made to reduce the number of candidates in the Trope Workshop, and proposed an idea that I'd mentioned to Bob a while back in passing: Fifteen trope candidates, maximum.

This is a major change to the Trope Workshop, so I intend to give this one at least a week of debate. (If trope candidates are launched and not replaced during that week, so much the better - the intent is to get the number of trope candidates down, and that works.)

Oh, look - it's now two days after proposing a hard cap of 15 trope candidates, and the number of trope candidates has dropped from 28 to 17.

More significantly, the number of identified trope stubs that we inherited from TV Tropes is now down to three. (And if somebody keeps entry-pimping "Heartbreaking in Hindsight", we can get that down to two.)
