I added two more examples. Second the motion to launch this one.

GentlemensDame883 (talkcontribs)

Looks good to go to me.

RivetVermin (talkcontribs)

Looks good to me, the only thing I'm not clear on is whether we're allowed to use the trope name or not, cause TV Tropes. If not, may I suggest Warrior Woman Worship?

Jlaw (talkcontribs)

It's not a bad idea to brainstorm potential alternate ideas. I only took the trope name, NOT the description.

Warrior Woman Worship is a good one. Amazon Warrior Admiration also comes to mind. do people have other ideas?

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

Perhaps a simpler "Amazon Admiration" - it keeps the connection with the other Amazon tropes and has that added alliterative appeal.

Jlaw (talkcontribs)

Not a bad idea. I'd be for Amazon Admiration.

RivetVermin (talkcontribs)

Yeah, Amazon Admiration definitely works, I also vote in favor

Lequinni (talkcontribs)

Another vote for Amazon Admiration from me (But Amazon Admirer could sound better)

Looney Toons (talkcontribs)

I'm okay with the launch and the new name suggestion.

And maybe it's time to create an "Amazonian Tropes" category, too...

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

I don't believe we've ever written this down anywhere, but I've been operating under the assumption that Categories Are A Free Launch - as long as somebody actually uses them. So... Category:Amazonian Tropes.

Looney Toons (talkcontribs)

You know, you coulda given me a bit more than 12 minutes to follow up on my suggestion. <grin>

But yes, that has long been my assumption as well. Very early on, before I was apotheosized given mod privileges, I was basically told "no need to ask, just do it."

GethN7 (talkcontribs)

I like Amazon Admirier, but I'll go with the consensus on their choices.

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

The trope name has been decided, so the page has been launched and partially entry-pimped. (As of this posting, I left off after Puppet Shows.)

Entry-pimping is taking longer than expected because I have had to correct multiple links to point to the actual work pages instead of to related work pages or disambiguation pages (and in one case so far, I had to actually provide a link to a work page). People, please make sure that the links you provide go where you think they go!

And since I launched this one, I'm still the only person who's ever edited Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? Such is life.

Jlaw (talkcontribs)

I appreciate you so much @Robkelk. Definitely will be careful since working on not linking to the wrong page. Do you recommend watching that show?

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

Do you recommend watching that show?

I liked it enough to write a work page about it, so I'd say yes. :) It's a well-written dungeon-adventure series.

Jlaw (talkcontribs)

May check it out! The last anime I saw was Way of the Househusband and been mired in Owl House this month.

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

Entry-pimping is now completed.

Jlaw (talkcontribs)

Thank you, Rob!

What are we calling this trope?

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

In the "Ready For A Launch?" thread, there's a discussion of what to call this trope when we launch it. This is the only thing keeping us from launching the trope. People have voted for particular names, but then a new name was proposed, so it isn't clear any more which name we want.

So... here's a dedicated thread. What are we calling this trope? Options, in the order they were proposed:

  • "Amazon Chaser" (The current name, widely seen as unsuitable for various reasons)
  • "Warrior Woman Worship"
  • "Amazon Warrior Admiration"
  • "Amazon Admiration"
  • "Amazon Admirer"

I'll vote later.

Robkelk (talkcontribs)
Looney Toons (talkcontribs)

I honestly don't see how any one of these is significantly better or worse than the others, so I am abstaining on this vote, at least for the moment.

HeneryVII (talkcontribs)

I like "Warrior Woman Worship" myself.

Jlaw (talkcontribs)

My vote would be for Admiration Admiration or Admirer, for the alliteration. Mind I'll go with the consensus if we agree on a name.

GentlemensDame883 (talkcontribs)

Amazon Admirer for me I guess.

RivetVermin (talkcontribs)

"Amazon Admiration" or "Amazon Admirer" both seem good to me

Utini501 (talkcontribs)

I like Amazon Admirer myself, it comes the closest to capturing the spirit of the "Amazon Chaser" name. Not quite as snappy, but it can't be helped.

Looney Toons (talkcontribs)

So after 24 hours that's four votes for "Amazon Admirer", two for "Amazon Admiration", and one for "Warrior Woman Worship". It looks like we're homing in on a final decision here.

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

I'll vote later.

Make that five votes for "Amazon Admirer".

Looney Toons (talkcontribs)

Well. You know what that means, Rob. <grin>

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

Yeah - I have a trope to launch.

Tomorrow, in case somebody still wants to vote for something else they like better.

HLIAA14YOG (talkcontribs)

Though Chaser is good enough, I think, I have nothing against Admirer. Six votes.

GethN7 (talkcontribs)

Toss my name in the hate for Admirer as well.
