Hello, [[troper]], and welcome to the Trope Talk subforum!
This forum, as the name says, is for general discussion about tropes. Questions about how Trope X is distinct from Trope Y, chat about examples for a given trope, discussion of trope families, this sort of thing.
Many of these things can spawn short-term threads, so it's OK to start new threads for minor things. There are also four super-threads:
apply here as anywhere else. Additionally, these three topics don't go in Trope Talk:
- Is this an example?: When you want to know whether something is an example, and how to write it up well.
- Redirect Farming: A topic for more expert people, to find searchable redirects for tropes that need them.
- What index(es) should this go on?: When you have a page without an index and can't find an index yourself. It covers any sort of page, not just tropes.
- What's Your Most Recently Launched Article?: This one lists pages (tropes, works etc.) that people recently created and want to list.
apply here as anywhere else. Additionally, these three topics don't go in Trope Talk:
- Trope proposals go into YKTTW.
- If you are searching for a trope, head over to Lost And Found.
- If you want to fix or repair a trope, please use Trope Repair Shop.
