Weird West[edit]

It would probably also be useful to merge or at least link this article to weird west.

Backdrop Section[edit]

The section discussing the western as backdrop contains only sritique of the idea. While this information should be part of the section the more basic information is missing. How is the setting established? What themes, cliches, etc. do authors draw from the western genre? Why have authors chosen to use a western motif in outer space?

Mando[edit]

Would it be a good idea for someone to add The Mandalorian to the notable examples list? Emanruse-username (talk) 12:35, 1 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Criticisms" section[edit]

@Elan Morin Tedronai: why are you duplicating this information that's already in the article and copy-pasting it into a new section???? NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 05:25, 2 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@NinjaRobotPirate:, no it's not duplicated. I admit that the "Notable examples" was doubling but the "Criticisms" is not. See for yourself now. Elan Morin Tedronai (talk)
