As your friendly neighborhood Admin Team, the gang here at TVTropes HQ is always working to improve the site.
Many of those improvements begin with suggestions posted right here, on the Community Wishlist. Is there a feature you really want on TVTropes? Post it.
Is there something we could be doing better? We want to know. Do you think we look fat in these pants? We were totally afraid of that. See a bug? Report it.
Important things to know:
- We're all about that content-creation life! The top contenders for our attention are ideas that'll create more content, like the video uploading feature, or speed up launching new pages. On the flip side, design or layout tweaks won't be our top priority.
- Help us dig through the goldmine of old wishlist items! If you have an old request gathering dust or spot one you're totally on board with, give it a bump and a like. There's a treasure trove of 6+ years' worth of ideas just waiting to be rediscovered. Items without enough love may not make the cut and will be closed.
- Was your wishlist item locked up without an explanation? It was most likely disapproved or just too big of a task versus the benefit it would ultimately have. Time is precious, and we want to focus on updates with the biggest bang for the buck. Don't be discouraged though! We appreciate every idea and we're always listening.

Did it change before? I thought it was opt-out?

When it became possible to follow pages an discussions separately, I did consider that now you don't see when there's a new comment unless you opt-in, which made them even less visible.
TroperWall / WikiMagic Cleanup
It would be handy and help promote the use of discussion pages if following a wiki page automatically added its discussion page to your watchlist, since otherwise you'd have to remember to follow the discussion page separately to be notified of new discussion on your watchlist.
You could still choose whether to follow just the wiki page or just the discussion page, same as under the current system, it's just that the discussion page would be an "opt out" option when following the wiki page, rather than an "opt in" option.
