{{Gus}}: We'd rather not have All Recent Changes be too available. It puts the server on its knees.

New editor here. I'm a big fan of American TV shows, but I was wondering if it was okay to add common tropes from Mandarin TV shows. Produced in Taiwan, China, Hong Kong and Singapore. Or is this the wrong place?

{{Gus}}: Go for it! Should be interesting. Perhaps something like MandarinShowTropes (similar to BritishTellyTropes) will help kick it off.

SciVo: What's this page for? //Later: Okay, got the answer from AskTheTropers:
-->'''FastEddie:''' At one point, it was the front door of the wiki, in a sense. It was the very first page made here. Some people still use it as their bookmark. It could probably be made a redirect to the HomePage, but we ought to let a few opinions flow by on that topic, first.

{{Tropes}} is morphing into a comprehensive index with one notable exception: the next-highest-level indexes (currently just GenreTropes and {{Media}}) don't get indexed on {{Tropes}} when they're in a format where they look good on the page. I can picture this becoming the index for those top-level categories, once the rest are done (for the NewSidebarWhackUp). At that point, it would be like a table of contents version of {{Tropes}}, so it would be an even better alternate front page than it is already. I don't see any reason to get rid of it.
