1In short, {{trope}}s with Website/{{Wikipedia}} articles.

3Here on Website/TVTropes, we tropers dedicate ourselves to cataloging recurrent patterns in fiction. Everyone knows that; it's the name of the game. Other sites deal with {{trope}}s, too, though none of them are as exhaustive as Website/TVTropes, which is perfectly normal. However, there's [[Website/{{Wikipedia}} one site that takes it too far]]: it's supposed to be a free world-class encyclopedia, yet it's wasting time talking on and on about {{cliche}}s in fiction. And that's ''[[TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou our]]'' job! Isn't that a waste of bandwidth? Perhaps so, but the practice is a lot more common than non-tropers would think.

5The truth of the matter is that Wikipedians do it for a variety of reasons—the {{trope}} may be common enough for scholarly interest, it may say something about psychology, it may be as much a real world phenomenon as an element used in fiction, or it may simply just be one of those many [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Silly_Things Silly Things]] Website/{{Wikipedia}} does. On the other hand, it might also be because Website/TVTropes has fallen victim to scope creep, and the topic really is one that best fits in a general-interest encyclopedia. In any case, it's beneficial to Website/TVTropes; the more pages on {{trope}}s there are on Website/{{Wikipedia}}, the more people will be led to our site.
