Hello,

I open this discussion because I think that this page has a problem. There are dozens of Zero Context Example (really, most of the time the examples are just "[Name], X and X"), and I'm not familiar enough with most works to expand those. If some people who added those examples in the first place could come back and edit them in order to provide valid examples, it would be much appreciated, because otherwise I feel like roughly 1/3 of this page's content should be edited out.

If you like, you can comment them out (by putting two number signs %) before each entry, and a commented out banner on the top of the page telling people not to uncomment those examples without adding context.

I guess it is the best move. I'll do that immediately, and add the page to the Pages Needing Example Context page.

How exactly does Paid the Spares relate to this? would the shipping practice of pairing the spares to make way for their ship be beta couples?

Morgan Wick: People seem to be increasingly confused as to what makes a Beta Couple vis-a-vis the Official Couple (is it prominence, Pair the Spares-ism, or drama?), and it's making me hesitant to add Raven/Beast Boy.

Well, I think they're supposed to be a couple made up of non the main characters, or those lower in the billing order at least. Usually though, they suffer from less drama than the official couple (though they may well fight / break up, just not as often as the Official Couple).
