Just For Fun / Trope Epitaph

Alas, poor Trope Name! I knew him, Horatio. We come here to bury these tropes, not to praise them. They were killed by misuse, by duplication, by policy or by just being absolutely terrible. Here in the trope cemetery, their final resting place, are their epitaphs inscribed for all posterity; they are gone, but not forgotten, no matter how hard we try.

Note: Do not link to disambiguation pages or use their WikiWord when adding to the list. ^note For why, see the relevant discussion at this ATT thread.

Disambiguated/Indexified Tropes

• Here lies 8.8 — Finally met its match after attempting to review The Room.^note Despite not allowing on-page examples, YMMV wicks turned into people complaining about reviewers they don't like. Was disambiguated between tropable on-page examples plus the on-page barred Sacred Cow.
• Here lies Absentee Actor — They failed to show up for auditions.^note Absent chairs. Was made into a disambig to cover specific tropes about characters not appearing in certain plots.
• Here lies Adjusting Your Glasses — Had to have their eyes checked again.^note Was misused for any instance of a character adjusting their glasses when they're supposed to indicate a personality trait, so it was disambiguated.
• Here lies Adult Fear — It feared for its life till the very end.^note Was often narrowly used as Death of a Child or the threat thereof, and redundant with Mundanger and Realism-Induced Horror. Was turned into a disambiguation page, and eventually made into an index.
• Here lies Alien Lunch — It got food poisoning.^note Was found to be redundant with Foreign Queasine, Weird World, Weird Food, and I Ate WHAT?!
• Here lies Alluring Anglerfish — Fused with his mate after a spark of love.^note Was meant to be about anglerfish in media being seen as Fiendish Fish who use their glowing lures to hunt their prey, but examples ended up being abyssal chairs. Was disambiguated between the former trope and Luring in Prey, which was launched to catch the misuse the trope had.
• Here lies The Amazon — Deforested, so please see this pamphlet on how to save your local rainforests.^note Was made into a Useful Notes page due to its vague description potentially attracting "the Amazon appears in a work" examples, which is jungle chairs.

• Here lies Animal Title Index — Animal control took extreme measures to deal with it.^note Was a list of works that had very little in common beyond having animals in their titles.
• Here lies Anything That Moves — Banged their deathbed until they died. ^note Kept getting confused with Extreme Omnisexual; the trope's actual intent was redundant to Really Gets Around, so it was turned into a disambiguation page.

• Here lies Badass Gay — His pride wasn't enough to make him awesome.^note Too broad like the other Badass tropes and was made into a disambiguation. Like how Cleopatra Nose opened the floodgates to the issues with personal appearance tropes, this trope's initial TRS thread led to a major gutting of the Badass tropes, and eventually came full circle after eight years.

• Here lies Blade on a Stick — Poked Death just one too many.^note Spearheaded chairs. Disambiguated between tropeworthy examples of spear users and weapon tropes. Salvaging the definition was deemed a job for the Trope Launch Pad.

• Here lies Catchphrase — "Stock phrases are DEAD. Not big surprise."^note Eventually devolved into spoken chairs as well as becoming a problematic troper Verbal Tic. It was initially turned into an index page for such phrases, but when Index of Catchphrases was launched to gather tropes about phrases it was turned into a disambiguation.

• Here lies Critical Research Failure — Was Too Dumb to Live.^note Was supposed to be examples so obvious even laypersons would be able to spot the error but many were too obscure. The inability to define what would count as obvious or distinguish from intentionally fictitious led it to be turned into a disambiguation.

• Here lies Drop the Hammer — Stop, hammer time is over!^note Hammered chairs, so it was disambiguated into various hammer tropes. The usage of a comically large hammer that is Played for Laughs was still a valid trope, which led to the creation of Humongous-Headed Hammer.

• Here lies Evil is Sexy — Condemned by the Moral Guardians because Sex Is Evil.^note Was supposedly a YMMV trope where the audience finds villains "hot", but the examples came off more as objective since they described how villains were sexualized as part of their character design, which is mostly intentional like in Fanservice. The trope was then disambiguated, with the old definition retooled into Sexy Villains, Chaste Heroes to denote the contrast between how the heroes and villains are portrayed for Fanservice. These Tropes Are Evil and Sexy was also created as an index to catch misuse.
• Here lies Extraordinarily Empowered Girl — Depowered.^note Unclear description led to misuse and attraction of Zero Context Examples.
• Here lies Extraverted Nerd — Decided to return to a more closed introverted life.^note Meant to be about nerds who were unaware about their personality and attempting to act more sociable, but an unclear name led to it suffering from heavy misuse and becoming a pothole magnet.

• Here lies For Want of a Nail — For want of some oxygen, this one's life was lost.^note Was supposed to be about when one small thing led to a huge consequence in the world, but it was misused for any change, as well as for fanfics despite that not being its purpose.

• Here lie Guttural Growler and its successor, Raspy and Tough — Died a Raspy-tinian death.^note Growling chairs. It was initially renamed to Raspy and Tough to make it gender neutral and focus more on tough guys having a raspy voice, but when the renamed trope crashed at the TLP, both were disambiguated between Harsh Vocals, Evil Sounds Deep, Evil Sounds Raspy, and Tomboyish Voice, with the concept yarded for a second future TLP effort.

• Here lies Hollywood Nerd — Dropped out for being bullied for their perceived "nerdiness".^note Was supposed to be about a character being treated like a Stereotypical Nerd even if nothing in their personality, appearance, or behavior indicates otherwise, but was misused as a conflated example of Hollywood Homely.

The first concept was folded into Wolves Always Howl at the Moon and the second was expanded to make Spooky Animal Sounds.
• Here lies Hurting Hero — Became too stressed out to live.^note Saw overlap between Trauma Conga Line and Being Good Sucks, so it was disambiguated between the two.
• Here lies I Have The High Ground — Tried to take on a Jedi perched up high.^note Was intended for perching on something tall and thin, but was used for other high areas and in place of Geo Effects due to the naming scene from Revenge of the Sith being an example.

• Here lies The Last of These Is Not Like the Others — Victim of misuse, redundancy, and frustrated TRS regulars.^note After being made In-Universe Examples Only in TRS, it was sent back after the misuse did not stop. It was eventually converted into an index and renamed due to too much overlap.
• Here lie Loads and Loads of Characters — Died from sheer character overload.^note Was misused for any work with a large cast of characters, which is a cast of chairs, instead of a work that can't fit its large cast into one episode, and thus was disambiguated.

• Here lie Mismatched Eyes and its original name, Boat Lights — Sank between a pair of mismatched islands, and their passengers all screamed as they drowned.^note Mismatched chairs. The original trope name had little to do with heterochromia, and characters with heterochromia is itself not considered tropeworthy.

• Here lies Multi-Ethnic Name — A fire of similar unknown origin took it away.^note Amounted to chairs assuming a different mantle, since multi-ethnic countries aren't anything out of the ordinary (e.g. Guyana and Eastern Russia) and the person's identity alone is established out-of-universe due to adoption, conversion, colonization, etc. Was disambiguated between the more tropeworthy Melting-Pot Nomenclature, Interracial and Interspecies Love Index, But Not Too Foreign and others.

• Here lies Not Christian Rock — Actually, it's Satanist Rock aka death metal.^note Was used inconsistently and had tropeworthiness concerns.
• Here lies Not Important to This Episode Camp — Got lost in the wilderness.^note Like Absentee Actor, the trope was misused for any character who doesn't appear in an episode when other tropes such as Put on a Bus and Written-In Absence cover them better. Thus, it was disambiguated.
• Here lie Not So Fast, Midstrike Monologue, and Inaction Sequence — The battle ended while barely anything else important happened.^note The first name was not only confused for a Stock Phrase, but was also confused with the unrelated trope Not So Fast, Bucko, which itself was renamed to Your Princess Is in Another Castle!. It was renamed to Midstrike Monologue, but it was renamed again because the scene didn't necessarily have to include a monologue. However, the last trope didn't thrive because it was anime/manga-exclusive, so it was disambiguated into Padding and Talking Is a Free Action, while the concept of changing a Fight Scene's pacing when adapting a work was yarded.
• Edo vrisketai Oedipus Complex — He accidentally killed and replaced his father, then scratched his eyes out when he discovered he married his mother.^note As a discredited psychoanalytic term, it attracted multiple issues, variously being used for conflicts between parents and children, Incest Subtext, or textual Parental Incest. It didn't help that the Trope Namer himself is not an example of an Oedipus Complex and the real aesop of the play is a warning that You Can't Fight Fate.
• Here lies Outnumbered Sibling — Ganged up on by their Massive Numbered Siblings.^note Was supposed to be about the only boy or girl among their siblings, but most of the examples were outnumbered chairs. The trope was reworked into Resentful Outnumbered Sibling, specifically that the character feels left out by their opposite-gender siblings, with the original name being disambiguated into other tropes about having many siblings.

• Here lies Poisonous Friend — Died from their own toxicity.^note Was supposed to be about a friend who does unsavory things on another friend's behalf, but was misused for friends who are toxic towards their friends. Thus, it was disambiguated into various tropes about evil friends.

• Here lies Rich Idiot With No Day Job — Had to find a new Secret Identity after being audited by the IRS.^note Was supposed to be about superheroes who used a Millionaire Playboy persona as a disguise, but the ambiguous name caused it to be used in place of tropes such as Upper-Class Twit or Idle Rich, leading it to a disambiguation.
• Here lies Robot Clown — Beep beep, RC.^note The combo of robot and clown together was deemed to be squeaky seats in self-driving clown cars, so it was disambiguated between tropes that already covered robots having silly jobs/clowns being unnatural, like Funny Robot, Do-Anything Robot and Monster Clown.
• Sai Guy, Dual Tonfas, to Fighting With Chucks ga koko ni nemuru — All of them flunked ninja school.^note All three were ninja related furniture. Made into disambiguation pages for various weapon tropes.
• Shana Clone ga koko ni nemuru — The exchange student program didn't work out for her.^note Like what happened to Char Clone, Darth Vader Clone and Fauxba Fett, this simply listed characters that shared characteristics with Shana, which doesn't meet the requirements for Expy and was thus disambiguated.
• Here lies Shopkeeper — Went out of business.^note Chairs for sale. Disambiguated between various shopkeeper-related tropes like Asian Store-Owner and Intrepid Merchant.
• Here lies Simple Staff — Fired from the staff room.^note Its vague definition led to it being misused for Magic Staffs and thus was disambiguated, with the original trope being renamed into Martial Arts Staff to cover non-magical staffs.
• Here lies Skirt Over Slacks — Skirted away from the clothes factory and slacked off from tailoring.^note Chairs wearing skirts. Was disambiguated into more tropeworthy examples such as Modesty Shorts and Tomboy with a Girly Streak.

Turned into a disambiguation page.
• Here lies Spoony Bard — Whacked to death with a giant spoon.^note Attracted examples of bards having some sort of role in general, rather than bards that were in video games to distract the player, and the trope namer wasn't even an example. The Bard was created to cover bards' purpose at large, while Quirky Bard was made to cover bards used as seemingly-purposeless distractions in games.
• Here lie Stock Parody Jokes — Its Stock Parodies got old.^note It was intended to list jokes that are common amongst parodies of media in addition to the parodies in question that used them, but it suffered from receiving entries that specifically listed said jokes (which were redundant to Stock Parodies), so it got disambiguated.
• Here lies Strange Girl — Was ostracized for her weirdness.^note Its unclear description led it to be used for any female character considered "strange", regardless of how "strange" they actually are.
• Here lie Stun Guns — Tazed.^note Paralyzed chairs. Was disambiguated into specific kinds of stunning weapons.
• Here lies Stupid Statement Dance Mix — Kicked into the Spartan pit for its madness-induced sampling.^note Was deemed redundant with Memetic Mutation and other tropes, so it got disambiguated.
• Here lie Supernatural Is Purple and Supernatural Is Green (and the latter's predecessor, Green Is Unnatural) — Banished by Technicolor Magic.^note Definitions were overly broad and their names were unclear, while specific colors representing the supernatural being were declared magical chairs. In addition, Supernatural Is Green's old name made it sound like it was about toxins and other dangerous substances rather than the supernatural, due to the misuse of the word "unnatural" as a synonym of "supernatural". The tropes were disambiguated while their definitions were merged into the one for Technicolor Magic.
• Here lies Talking To Himself — Died from exhaustion after playing too many roles at once.^note Was misused for any actor with multiple roles, overlapping with Acting for Two. The old name was then made a redirect to Talking to Themself, which is about Split Personalities talking to each other, before being disambiguated into that and Acting for Two.
• Here lies Tastes Like Diabetes — Was so Sickeningly Sweet that test audiences had a Sweetness Aversion. ^note Was disambiguated due to misuse and the number of In-Universe entries created a split between an In-Universe trope and an Audience Reaction.
• The Thing That Goes Doink ga koko ni nemuru — Removed after there were no more deer to scare off.^note Examples were just "the shishi-odoshi exists", which were fancy Japanese chairs, so information about it was moved to UsefulNotes.Japanese Architecture while the trope was disambiguated into that and Big Fancy House.
• Here lie Those Two Bad Guys — They were so bumbling that the Big Bad Duumvirate sent the Bantering Baddie Buddies to get rid of them.^note Disambiguated between a handful of villainous duo tropes, and led to the creation of two new tropes: Bumbling Henchmen Duo, a pair of comically incompetent henchmen, and Bantering Baddie Buddies, a pair of eloquent criminals engaging in darkly humorous conversation.
• Here lie Tights Under Shorts — Were too short and tight.^note Chairs wearing tights. Was disambiguated into tropeworthy examples of tights such as Modesty Shorts and Proper Tights with a Skirt.
• Token Yuri Girls to Yaoi Guys ga koko ni nemuru — Their ship has sunk.^note Each of these two is now a disambiguation page.
• Here lie Typical Cartoon Animal Colors — Washed out in favor of atypical ones.^note Colored chairs, so it was disambiguated into tropeworthy examples of stock animal colors, while some of its examples were moved to The Coconut Effect's analysis page.

• Here lies Undermined By Reality — Died in the collapse.^note Attracted complaining with its use redundant with other entries it was disambiguated into.
• Here lies Unexpected — A victim of the Spanish Inquisition. Ironically, everyone saw it coming.^note Chairs appearing without notice. Was disambiguated between the index of tropes for unexpected reactions and works that used the word as a title.
• Here lies Wedding Enhanced Fertility — Getting eloped only hastened the miscarriage.^note Meant to be about women having a higher chance of getting pregnant after a wedding, but this was The Same, but More to Surprise Pregnancy. Disambiguated between that and Contrived Coincidence.
• Here lies Weekend Inventor — Killed by their Homemade Inventions.^note Suffered misuse due to its Non-Indicative Name.
• Here lies We're Still Relevant, Dammit! — Fell too far behind on the latest trend.^note Attracted complaining that treated Long-Runners as going out of favor for staying on New Media trends, and people hating them as a result. Was disambiguated between tropeworthy examples of Long Runner tropes to prevent this.
• Here lies Whip It Good — Snapped in half during an Indy Ploy.^note Whippable chairs. Disambiguated between tropeworthy examples of lash attacks, while the concept of whips being used for seduction or dominance was reworked into Whip of Dominance.
• Here lies Will - Had nothing to offer its loved ones.^note A chair's last will and testament, and since the word "will" has various definitions, it was turned into a disambiguation page.
• Here lies Who Wears Short Shorts? — Life was too short for this one.^note Short chairs. Now a disambiguation page.
• Here lies Win the Crowd — It got lost in the crowd.^note Determined to be redundant with multiple other Audience Reactions, so it was turned into a disambiguation page for them.
• Here lies Witch Species — Accused for witchcraft and burned at the stake.^note Was supposed to be a trope about witches in general, but was misused for any inherently magical race. Thus, it was disambiguated.
• Here lies Your Worst Nightmare — Thankfully it was All Just a Dream.^note Concerns were raised because it sounded like a stock phrase, and it was also misused for characters who know other people's worst fears instead of characters who can give them nightmares. Thus, it was disambiguated.

Merged Tropes

• Here lie Acceptable Targets and their subtropes — Society marches on, and these targets were never acceptable in the first place.^note Turned into a index page after seeing rampant misuse as a pothole magnet and attracting zero context examples. Once Acceptable Targets was turned into a redirect for Values Dissonance. Unacceptable Targets was initially spared, but a later TRS post revealed that it too was redundant with other audience reactions, so that got turned into an index as well.
• Here lies All Guitars Are Stratocasters — Strummed its last rock song, albeit incorrectly.^note Guitar Chairs. It was merged with Artistic License – Music.
• Here lies All Love is Unrequited — Alas, Unrequited Love Lasts Forever.^note Was supposed to be about the majority of the cast not having their crushes reciprocated by the end of the work, but was used for any instance a character has a crush, which is unrequited chairs. Thus, it was merged into Unrequited Love as a supertrope, which is a redirect to Unrequited Love Tropes.
• Here lies All Men are Rapists — Executed after their perverted behavior went too far.^note The Same, but More to All Men Are Perverts.
• Here lies All There Is to Know About The Crying Game — Everyone knows about the sledding accident that killed it.^note Supposed to be when a work's twist was better known than the actual contents of the work, but identifying a qualifying work required knowing about the work beyond the twist, causing it to become redundant with It Was His Sled, so it was merged. A disambiguation is left behind as well, as some wicks belonged to Signature Scene instead.
• Eia 'o Aloha Hawaii e moe nei — Even the Hula and Luaus were not entertaining in this Vacation Episode.^note Was meant to cover episodes where the characters travel to Hawaii, but the trope decayed into "nā noho" with just references to Hawaii. It was then merged into Vacation Episode, though it was also redirected to Hula and Luaus instead.
• Here lies Ancient Africa — Got lost in the first migration Out of Africa.^note The trope read like a Wikipedia article about Africa's ancient history, which we are not. Much of its content was moved over to UsefulNotes.Africa, while the former trope was turned into a disambiguation between that, Fantasy Counterpart Culture, and Bulungi.
• Here lies Anything Can Be Music — Its death was deemed instrumental.^note Determined to be redundant with Everything Is an Instrument, since Tropes Are Flexible.
• Here lies Appeal to Consequences — It was killed by someone who believed its death would have a good consequence.^note When some Logical Fallacies subtropes were moved to UsefulNotes.Logical Fallacies, this was determined too rare to be a trope.
• Here lies Appeal to Fear — Was killed in an attempt to scare people into siding with the killer.^note Was an underused subtrope of Logical Fallacies, which had its lesser-used subtropes merged into a single page at UsefulNotes.Logical Fallacies, and too similar to Scare 'Em Straight.
• Here lies Appeal to Ignorance — People suspect it was murdered because there is no evidence that it wasn't.^note Cut when Logical Fallacies' subtropes were cleaned up by merging ones that weren't thriving into UsefulNotes.Logical Fallacies.
• Here lies Appeal to Pity — It tried to make its killer pity it, but was unsuccessful.^note Underperforming sub-trope of Logical Fallacies. Was moved to UsefulNotes.Logical Fallacies along with several other subtropes.
• Here lies Appeal to Ridicule — It was so ludicrous anyway it's no wonder it died.^note When Logical Fallacies' underperformiing subtropes were moved to a separate Useful Notes page, it was determined to not be common enough to be a trope.
• Here lies Appeal to Vanity — Cremated because it was afraid its corpse would look unflattering.^note Duplicate of Appeal to Flattery, which is a preexisting name for the Logical Fallacy.
• Here lies Appeal to Wealth — It thought it was always right because it was rich, so it didn't obey the danger sign.^note Was cut when Logical Fallacies' underperforming subtropes were merged into a single Useful Note.
• Here lie Arbitrary Maximum Range (and its predecessor Space-Based Weapon Has Cutoff Range) and Arbitrary Minimum Range — Those warnings not to enter the firing range weren't just arbitrary.^note Not quite duplicate tropes, but they were deemed to be an artificial split and were merged together. Even earlier, the trope for maximum ranges was renamed because the title was too long and awkward.
• Hic iacet Argumentum Ad Nauseam — It stated its arguments over and over until someone couldn't take it anymore and stabbed it to death.^note Cut when Logical Fallacies' underperforming subtropes were moved to UsefulNotes.Logical Fallacies.

• Here lies Art Major Biology — You fail Artistic License – Biology forever.^note Synonymous taxon.
• Here lies Artsy Moon — The paint job was too weird.^note Lacked tropes and its tropeworthiness was questioned.
• Here lie Badass Beard and Badass Moustache — They weren't manly enough, so a barber did away with them.^note Like what happened with other Badass Tropes, these two attracted examples of characters who merely have facial hair. They were merged into a trope about men whose facial hair is indicative of their masculinity, akin to how Carpet of Virility does the same with chest hair.
• Here lies Badass in Charge — Didn't have the authority to be in charge.^note Was misused as a trope when it's an index, but it was deemed redundant with Authority Tropes, so it was merged with it.

• Here lies Bandwagon Fallacy — Everyone else was jumping off a bridge, so it did too.^note During the conversion of several of Logical Fallacies' subtropes into a Useful Note, it was considered too uncommon to be tropeworthy.
• Here lies The Barber — He finally retired from the haircut business, but he sure was chatty.^note A barber appearing in a work is barbershop chairs. It was merged with Chatty Hairdresser to address tropeworthy concerns.
• Here lie Bastard Boyfriend, Bastard Girlfriend (and her predecessors Abusively Sexy Bitch and Abusively Sexy Woman), and Bespectacled Bastard Boyfriend (and his predecessors Spectacled Sadist and Kichiku Megane) — All of them died swooning over their Fetishized Abuser.^note Was used for any abusive love interest when the Fanservice part was supposed to be emphasized, so they were merged and redirected. Additionally; the first name of Bastard Girlfriend was deemed too negative, while the second was changed during the cleanup of Sexual Harassment and Rape Tropes following The Second Google Incident; and the initial name of Bespectacled Bastard Boyfriend was too obtuse (and eventually recreated as an Anime Fanspeak page), while the first rename was confused for Four Eyes, Zero Soul.
• Here lies Bear Trap Bed — Crushed by a bed owned by Murphy. ^note The Same, but More Specific, as Murphy's Bed examples are not limited to Murphy beds.
• Here lies Beat Bag — Beaten to death by a Con Man after getting caught up in a con.^note Merged with The Con as part of an effort to reorganize its subtropes.
• Here lies Big Bra to Fill — Crushed by an insurmountable yet strangely common weight.^note Was supposed to be about movie superheroines being less endowed than their comic counterparts, which is the same thing as Most Common Super Power but from a negative and judgy angle.

• Here lies Biker Babe — The Badass Biker was much cooler than her.^note Chairs riding motorcycles.

• Here lies Canon Wank — Banished to Canon Discontinuity.^note Redundant with Fan Wank, as well as less commonly used and more complaint-oriented.
• Here lies Caption Contest — [You could win YOUR epitaph here!]^note Merged with Audience Participation since caption contests typically only happen in content that isn't tropable.
• Here lie Cardboard Boxes — Destroyed in a chase scene.^note It was cut for being cardboard chairs due to the unclear name. The tropable parts were merged with Chase-Scene Obstacle Course.
• Here lies Catch That Pigeon! — It was finally caught and eaten.^note Too close to Road Runner vs. Coyote and not thriving, it was merged with said trope.
• Christmas Cake ga koko ni nemuru — Nobody wanted a fruit cake for Christmas.^note A Japanese-media specific version of Old Maid, which it was merged with.

• Here lies Contemptible Cover — It was caught lying under oath and held in contempt of court.^note Frequently used to complain about covers tropers don't like, and examples that weren't like that were already covered by tropes like Covers Always Lie (which it was redirected to) and Sexy Packaging.
• Here lie Continuity Editing, Linear Edit, Non-Linear Edit, Offline Edit, and Online Edit — Cut in the editing process.^note Each had a low wick count, so they were merged together into Video Editing Terminology.
• Here lies The Con Within a Con — It's now the con within a grave.^note Merged with The Con as part of an effort to reorganize that trope.
• Here lies Credits Brand Products — The funeral's program was sponsored by Trope Co.^note Wasn't thriving, but was noted to be a more specific version of Creative Closing Credits. It was merged with the latter as a result, while Creative Credits and Creative Opening Credits were made redirects.
• Here lies The Creepy Undertaker — Buried alongside his clients.^note Too similar to Creepy Mortician with only a (supposed) played-for-drama difference, they were stitched together like Dr. Frankenstein's monster.
• Here lie Crusading Widower and Vengeful Widow — They may have lost their loved ones, but at least they're together now.^note Duplicate tropes that were unnecessarily separated by gender. They were merged together under a new name.
• Here lie Dancing Pants — A certain Mrs. Judy Neutron ordered his son to pick those pants up after his experiments went awry. She then commented that the full ensemble had better moves, anyway.^note Too similar to Living Clothes to stand on its own, so it was merged.
• Ici repose Date Crepe — The service was great, but the crepes, not so much.^note Concerns were raised over the name sounding like a tasteless rape joke, plus redundancy with Spaghetti Kiss and Sweetheart Sipping, so Date Crepe was merged into Indirect Kiss.

• Here lie Determined Homesteader's Children and Determined Homesteader's Wife — Life is hard on the homestead.^note Needlessly specific subtropes that were merged back into their supertrope.
• Here lie Dewey Defeats Truman and The Great Politics Mess-Up — They were both failures.^note Both were ultimately deemed redundant with Failed Future Forecast. In addition, The Great Politics Mess-Up was frequently misused as a term for the end of the Cold War, regardless of whether it had to do with inaccurate predictions or Alternate History.
• Here lie The Dish Rattler and Basso Profundo — Tired of being typecast.^note Failed to thrive for over a year with the old name, and determined to not be a trope a while after being renamed, leading to it being merged with MediaNotes.Voice Types.
• Here lies Domestic Abuser — Jailed after beating his wife.^note Abusive duplicate
• Here lies Do They Know It's Christmas Time? — Forgot about the true meaning of an episode set on Christmas.^note Heavily misused, and found to be instances of Status Quo Is God meeting Christmas aesops, so it was merged with Christmas Episode.

• Here lie Dr. Pedia and Mr. Trope, Wikipedia Syntaxer, and Wikipedia Updater — Neither This Very Wiki nor The Other Wiki wanted to put up with their behavior.^note Were originally classified as Wiki Tropes, but were rarely used and determined to work better as a single Just for Fun page due to their tongue-in-cheek nature.
• Here lies Dug in Deeper — Dug a grave too deep that ended up in a massive pile of lies.^note Lacked off-page wicks and deemed to be redundant with Snowball Lie and Digging Yourself Deeper.
• Here lies Eaten by a Snake — Three guesses as to what happened to it, and the first two don't count. ^note Merged into Deus Exit Machina; previously the tropes were distinguished by happening to main vs supporting characters, but this was deemed redundant.
• Here lies Epic Song — Electrocuted when its microphone malfunctioned.^note Already covered by Epic Rocking (which can refer to genres other than rock, since Tropes Are Flexible), which it was turned into a redirect to.
• Here lies Everyone Gets Their Turn — It was their turn to die.^note Redundant with Realistic Diction Is Unrealistic, which it was merged with.
• Here lies Everyone Is Gay — What else should we say? Married, buried, and cast out of the mortal coil. ^note The Same, but More Specific to Cast Full of Gay, due to being fanfic-specific; even then, the fanfic-specific aspect was often overlooked.
• Here lie Evil Albino and Heroic Albino — Other people's deaths paled in comparison.^note Merged into Albinos Are Freaks due to the existence of albino chairs.
• Here lie Exposed Eyeballs as Eyes — Pushed back into their sockets.^note Was merged with Cartoony Eyes due to heavy misuse, lack of wicks, and redundancy.
• Here lies Fallacy Fallacy — The person who reported its death used bad logic, but that doesn't mean it's not dead.^note After Logical Fallacies' underperforming subtropes were moved into the Useful Notes namespace, it was determined not to be a trope.
• Here lies Fallacy of Composition — Drowned due to believing that, being 60% water, it couldn't drown.^note It wasn't common enough to be a trope, so it was moved to UsefulNotes.Logical Fallacies along with several other underperforming subtropes of Logical Fallacies.

• Here lies Fashion Designer — Closed down their boutique after suffering creative block.^note Designer chairs, so it was made into a redirect to Fashion and Modeling Tropes.
• Here lies Fat Cat — Became too lazy to live.^note Fat and fuzzy feline furniture. Merged with and redirected to Cats Are Lazy since a cat being fat tends to go hand in hand with it being lazy, while some examples were covered by Lazy Neutered Pet since neutering can cause weight gain.
• Here lies Flagship Franchise — Flown at half-mast by a cash cow.^note Misuse, ZCE attraction, and overlap with Cash-Cow Franchise led to this trope being merged with it.
• Here lie Four Equal Payments Of and Just Pennies a Day — Fired over their failed Payment Plan Pitch.^note Both had low wick counts and were deemed not distinct enough from each other to be separate tropes.
• Here lies From Clones to Genre — Death decided to purge the cheap knockoffs.^note Was a Pothole Magnet to Follow the Leader, so it was merged with that trope after tropeworthy concerns were brought up.
• Here lies "Funny Aneurysm" Moment — Those jokes we made about it dying aren't so funny anymore.^note Had too much misuse confusing it with Harsher in Hindsight, thus the two were merged.
• Here lie Furry Webcomic and Furry Comic — They forgot that this week was duck season.^note These two were The Same, but More Specific to each other, but were a bit on the short side. They were both merged into UsefulNotes.Furry Fandom.

• Here lie Holding It for a Friend, I Have to Wash My Hair, and Lame Excuse — Singed while ironing the dog.^note The first one was a stock phrase deemed redundant with the expanded I Need to Go Iron My Dog, the middle one was deemed to be too similar to it, and the last one was The Same, but More Specific with an ambiguous name.
• Here lies Hollywood Dress Code — The costume store was out of stock.^note Both pages were used as pseudo-indexes for Personal Appearance Tropes.
• Here lie Home Pages and Language Indices — Per their living will, everything said at their funeral will be multilingual.^note Back in the day, Home Pages used to list all non-English versions of the wiki and Just For Fun pages. Updates to the site over the years led to the page eventually breaking and caused all foreign language Home Pages to redirect to the English Home Page instead. To fix this issue, it was decided to merge all the home pages and language indices into a single Administrivia page for future-proofing.
• Here lies Home Version Soundtrack Replacement — Further airings of the funeral will replace the bagpipe performance of "Amazing Grace" with a rendition of "Yakety Sax" played on the kazoo.^note Determined to be too similar to Re-Release Soundtrack.
• Here lies Hot Linked — Caught in the cold.^note Merged into Forum Speak.

• Here lies Juggalo — STOP! STOP! ENOUGH WITH THE CLOWN WANNABES!^note Only listed characters that are fans of Insane Clown Posse, which is the Insane Chairs Posse. It was merged with its Useful notes page on the same topic.
• Kansai Regional Accent, Keigo, to Tohoku Regional Accent ga koko ni nemuru — They weren't even bothering on sticking to Japanese accents.^note Read like Useful Notes pages on Japanese accents, which we already have. They were merged with UsefulNotes.Japanese Dialects, while Keigo was merged with UsefulNotes.Japanese Language. All three were also disambiguated.

• Here lie Loads and Loads of Roles — Two wasn't enough, and dozens of them weren't enough for their voice box.^note Was The Same, but More to Acting for Two, but wasn't a Trivia trope despite several wicks landing in the Trivia/ namespace. It was merged to catch the existing Trivia/ wicks.

• Here lies The Love Slap Of Epiphany — Was KO'd at first punch.^note Wasn't thriving and was a duplicate of Love at First Punch, so it was merged with that trope while the original name was disambiguated.
• Here lies Love You and Everybody — They always loved them... for cheering them up at the funeral.^note Meant to be for instances where a declaration of love is backpedaled to a generalized conversation, but it was continuously getting potholed for instances of All-Loving Hero.

• Here lies Lowest Cosmic Denominator — Its cry of "Smite Me, O Mighty Smiter" was responded to with a quick death, courtesy of the celestial overseers.^note Sometimes misused to refer to cosmic balance, including having an inaccurate "Cosmic Balance" redirect for a while, when it actually referred to works using in-universe names for mythological beings rather than their real life names.

• Here lies Madden Curse — Hit by a stray football.^note Merged with Pop-Culture Urban Legends. While Pop-Culture Urban Legends was launched after Madden Curse, the latter didn't have many examples before it was cut, making it redundant with the former.

• Here lies Megalodon — Couldn't outswim the meteor 66 million years ago.^note A Megalodon appearing in a work is primodial sea chairs. It was merged with Threatening Shark to prevent more chairsy examples from showing up, while the former name was disambiguated between various prehistoric sea creatures and sea monster tropes for more concise usage in works.
• Here lies Midflight Water Touching — Drowned after dropping too close to the water in their wonderous maiden flight.^note Flying Chairs. It was also The Same, but More Specific to The Joy of First Flight, so it was easily merged due to it not thriving.
• Here lie Minorly Mentioned Myths and Monsters — Were seldom mentioned, and eventually became not mentioned at all.^note Suffered from Fan Myopia, gushing, and misuse in the downfalls after Seldom-Seen Species was merged. It was merged and redirected to Small Reference Pools as a result. Any salvageable soft splits were deemed a job for the Trope Launch Pad.
• Here lies Misty May — We've switched to the metric system for measuring bosom bouncing.^note Was an obscure in-joke that wasn't thriving, so it was redirected to Gainaxing. However, the latter had many examples that were just jiggling breasts and nothing else, so it was made definition-only.

• Here lie Nightmare Fuel Unleaded and High-Octane Nightmare Fuel — Had an accidental massive leakage, forcing us to revert to standard Nightmare Fuel.^note Originally intended to segregate intentional horror from unintentional horror, but a combination of Trope Decay, difficulty determining creator intent, and The Same, but More led to the two being merged under the name Nightmare Fuel, with High-Octane Nightmare Fuel being turned into a redirect and Accidental Nightmare Fuel being turned into a Fan Speak page.
• Here lie Non-Identical Twins — Buried in the correct caskets despite alleged similarities in appearance.^note "Identical twins that don't actually look identical" was deemed redundant.
• Here lies Non Sequitur Fallacy — It died from falling out of a bouncing UFO, therefore the curfew should be set later.^note Once underperforming subtropes of Logical Fallacies were merged into UsefulNotes.Logical Fallacies and cleaned up, this was cut due to being underperforming and too similar to Non Sequitur and Chewbacca Defense.
• Here lies Not So Fast, Bucko! — Their princess is in another castle.^note A not-so-fast duplicate in another castle.
• Here lie Nuns n' Rosaries — The Last Rites administered by the Catholic church on a November rain.^note Catholic church pews; alongside being redundant to Christianity is Catholic.
• Oba-san ga koko ni nemuru — Ma'am Shock was too much for her. ^note The Same, but More Specific to Ma'am Shock. Both covered people interpreting the use of certain honorifics as calling them old, but Oba-san was specific to the Japanese language, while Ma'am Shock covers words other than the English word "ma'am", despite its name. Oba-san was repurposed as an exampleless fan speak page, while examples were moved to Ma'am Shock.

• Here lies Prince of Pranksters — He fell for a Deadly Prank pulled by a different prankster.^note The Same, but More to The Prankster, due to its definition being identical to exaggerations of The Prankster, to the point that the "Exaggerated" entry on PlayingWith.The Prankster used to list a wick to it and nothing else.
• Here lies Probability Pileup — It was an oddly common chance that this trope was merged.^note Was underused and redundant with Oddly Common Rarity, so it was merged with it.

• Here lies Ralph Wiggum — Too airheaded.^note Supposed to be a mixture of Cloudcuckoolander, The Fool, and The Ditz, but did not have a sensible unification. Examples were moved to The Ditz, because a lot of examples were duplicates of examples of that trope, while others were sometimes The Same, but More for that trope.
• Here lies Real Estate Scam — Driven out of the housing market.^note Merged with its supertrope, The Con, because it was relatively underused.
• Here lies Redheaded Hero — It got shaven.^note Merged into Red Is Heroic.

• Ĉi tie ripozas Re Lex — It fell for a deadly con.^note A constructed lexical duplicate.

• Here lie The Reptilians — Supplanted by the ancient Lizard Folk, or so they'd like you to think.^note Was found to be equivalent to Lizard Folk in use; Reptilian Conspiracy was created to cover the cases specifically tied to conspiracy theories.

• Here lies Reverse Mole — Exposed by the group and eliminated.^note Was advertised as a Good Counterpart to The Mole, but it was decided that the distinction is irrelevant, so The Mole became more neutral and the tropes were merged.

• Here lies Seldom-Seen Species — No-one noticed their extinction until it was too late.^note Deemed to be seldom-seen seating, so it was turned into a redirect for Small Taxonomy Pools.

• Senpai/Kōhai ga koko ni nemuru — Died together honorably after Senpai finally noticed Kōhai.^note Was merged with Japanese Honorifics due to tropeworthiness concerns, but the idea behind the dynamic was yarded.
• Here lie Seven Year Rule and NOHAMOTYO — Their demographics didn't care about them being repeated in a new trope.^note The latter was an unwieldy acronym, while the former was the same, but applied to professional wrestling.
• Here lie Shark Stories — The numerous Sea Stories proved to be too vast for them.^note Largely determined to be shark chairs. It became a redirect to Sea Stories.
• Here lies The Shill — It paid the ultimate price.^note Merged with The Con.

• Here lies Slapstick Knows No Gender — And not just the men I slapped. But the women...and the coroner, too!^note Was deemed a gendered version of Slapstick and was merged with that trope. Not helping matters is that the trope was defined as an aversion to something.
• Here lies Sliding Bike Stop — Suffered a involuntary ejection while trying to recreate the AKIRA Homage Shot.^note Trope-Namer Syndrome that made it a ZCE magnet. Was merged with ReferencedBy.Akira, while the former name was made a disambiguation page.
• Here lies Some Anvils Need to Be Dropped — The anvil was dropped into a volcano because the blacksmith who owned it thought that needed to be done.^note The Same, but More to Anvilicious due to it being defined as "Anvilicious, but done well".
• Here lies Somewhere, This Index is Crying — It had no more tears to shed.^note The Same, but More Specific to the Artistic License, as it was defined as "Artistic License taken to its logical extreme".
• Here lie Sonic Syndrome and its successor, Polygon Ceiling — They decided to leap off a cliff.^note The original name was an unnecessary Take That! at Sonic the Hedgehog, and even without that, the trope was determined to be The Same, but More to Video Game 3D Leap due to being reserved for badly executed examples of that trope.

• Aquí yace Spanish Prisoner — Executed.^note Merged with its supertrope, The Con.
• Here lies Species Lost and Found — It turned out to be extinct after all.^note Merged with Not So Extinct after it was determined that their distinction — Species Lost and Found was applied to real extinct species and Not So Extinct to fictional ones — was artificial and unnecessary.

• Here lies Super Coach — They failed to Save Our Team.^note Lacked wicks and was redundant with the latter.

The page claimed to be an Anime Fanspeak term, despite lots of evidence pointing toward the term being created by TV Tropes itself.
• Here lie Tax Deductions — Taken by the taxman.^note Wasn't thriving and was misusing a pre-existing term, so it was merged while the proper definition was yarded.
• Here lies Ted Baxter — He had such a small name, but a big ego.^note "Ted Baxter" and "Small Name, Big Ego" were pointing at roughly the same phenomenon, but divided into characters versus creators. We felt you cringing at the blatant Flame Bait from here. "Ted Baxter" was deemed to have a bad case of Trope-Namer Syndrome right about the same time "Small Name, Big Ego" was deemed far too complainy, and a transplant was done to solve both issues.
• Here lies That Night Felt Like Months — Died over the course of ten episodes covering ten minutes.^note A Stock Phrase used to lampshade Webcomic Time, deemed to not be its own trope and merged.
• Here lies They Do — 'Til death did they part... from the world together.^note Was declared redundant with Relationship Upgrade, so it was merged.
• Here lie They Fight Crime! — Wunza trope, the other a page, they couldn't solve the case of the missing wicks.^note Was a rampant Pothole Magnet to Wunza Plot, so it was merged with that trope on doubts of tropeworthiness.

• Here lies Triang Relations — The open relationship didn't work out.^note Was really an analysis page of how Love Triangle could be played with, as well as violating Type Labels Are Not Examples.

• Here lies Tri County Area — Kept being confused for the Tri State Area by a certain scientist.^note Wasn't thriving and found to be The Same, but More to Everytown, America, so it was redirected to that trope.

• Here lies Twenty Minutes into the Present — Its funeral won't be held until Next Sunday A.D..^note Duplicate whose name was a bad snowclone of 20 Minutes into the Future.
• Here lies Undisclosed Native — Was discovered to be a former uncontacted citizen shortly before their demise.^note Disclosed chairs. Also wasn't thriving, so it was merged with Non-Specifically Foreign.

• Here lie Unlucky Childhood Friend and Victorious Childhood Friend — Their romance wasn't so victorious after all and left them so unlucky that they both died.^note Two tropes that were opposite situations about childhood friends hooking up, it was decided they'd work better as one, so they were merged into Childhood Friend Romance.

• Here lie Uplifted Side Story and Sidenote Full Story — They could have been resolved, but alas, they shall remain on the cutting room floor.^note Both of them lacked wicks and were possibly Too Rare to Trope.

• Here lies Visual Novel Shot — Shot in 1st person in a First-Person Shooter.^note Was merged with P.O.V. Cam due to being The Same, but More Specific.
• Here lies What Do You Mean, It Wasn't Made on Drugs? — Killed by The Aggressive Drug Dealer for being too quirky.^note The name attracted snark and Zero Context Examples, and was misused for works that really were made on drugs.

• Here lies What Happened to the Pet? — Mysteriously went absent.^note Duplicate trope, and wasn't thriving.
• Here lies Wing Pull — Fell to its death after its wings were clipped.^note Was redundant with New Powers as the Plot Demands and the name was a poor snowclone of Ass Pull, so it was merged with the former trope.

• Here lies Yes, Virginia — There is a Santa's Existence Clause.^note Redundant with the latter trope.

• Here lies You Got Spunk! — Wasn't impressed by the Badass in Distress.^note Found to be redundant with Baddie Flattery and was merged with that trope to prevent misuse.
• Here lies You Have to Have Jews — It might succeed on Broadway, but it didn't succeed on TV Tropes.^note Was used for any instance of a Jewish character in a work, which is Bar Mitzvah Boys Sitting On Chairs. Merged into A Nice Jewish Index.

Split Tropes

• Here lies All Asians Are Alike — The cultures seemed interchangeable, so they all looked identical.^note Trope Decay led to the creation of a trope where a character cannot tell the difference between East Asian individuals, though it was later broadened and renamed to cover any race.
• Here lies An Axe To Grind — Axed out of the weaponry list.^note Was split into different axe-related tropes, with the original name being disambiguated, due to its unclear and untropeworthy definition attracting ZCEs.

• Here lies Bob Haircut — Cut short by the past and the future.^note Split due to the covered uses being distinct enough to warrant their own tropes.
• Here lies Bonus Boss — If you don't want to call it superb, that's completely optional.^note Bonus Boss was specifically defined as optional bosses that are more difficult than mandatory bosses, but it was frequently misused for any boss that isn't mandatory. The original definition was moved to Superboss and the misuse was moved to Optional Boss, the latter of which was originally a disambiguation page.
• Here lie Brainy Specs — Smart People Wear Glasses, but since their glasses were purely aesthetic, they walked right into a pothole.^note Originally defined as "character wears fake glasses to look smart," it was misused for smart characters who really did wear glasses. The trope was renamed to Purely Aesthetic Glasses to cover the "fake glasses" part while the misuse was split into Smart People Wear Glasses.
• Here lies Can You Hear Me Now? — The answer depends on whether the recipient has Super Cell Reception or whether Cell Phones Are Useless.^note Determined to be covering two distinct concepts (cell phones working unusually well, and cell phones being completely useless).
• Here lie Cool Old Guy and Cool Old Lady — Weren't seen as spry or charismatic by the young'uns, but at least they were Together in Death.^note Not only was the trope virtually the same regardless of gender, but its unclear description attracted examples that both covered elders who were physically capable or seen as charismatic/"cool" despite their age. Thus, they were deprecated and split off into Spry Old Guy and Charismatic Old Folks.
• Here lies Courtroom Antic — Held in contempt for antics deemed too unconventional for any court.^note Originally meant for strategic antics performed in the name of obtaining a favorable verdict, its vague name led to misuse for any ridiculous antics performed in a courtroom regardless of reason. The original definition was moved to Unconventional Courtroom Tactics, while the misuse was moved to Courtroom Antics (plural).
• Here lies Deader Than Disco — Once considered groovy, now it sucked far worse than when disco sucked and was Condemned by History. ^note  Misused for any work that declined in popularity, even if it didn't specifically go from popular to despised. It also was sometimes misused for the bad reputation of disco; Disco Sucks was launched to cover this.
• Here lies Everything's Better With Bunnies — Hopped to their graves.^note Was part of the "Everything's X with Y" family which nearly always led to People Sit on Chairs. Split into an index of Bunny Tropes.
• Here lies Everything's Better With Princesses — The Evil Queen managed to defeat them.^note Royal chairs, and redundant to other princess tropes, which it was turned into a disambiguation page for. More tropeworthy concepts, such as Princess Protagonist and Good Princess, Evil Queen, were launched as part of the cleanup effort and examples that had meaning behind them were moved to them instead of deleted.
• Here lies Everything's Squishier With Cephalopods — No wonder the calamari tasted funny and terrifying.^note Among the snowclones that led to the Everything's Worse with Snowclones policy. It has been split into comedic and dramatic depictions.

• Here lies Gold Tooth — Wasn't covered by Evulz's dental care, so it was melted into a casing.^note Golden chairs. It was split between Villainous Gold Tooth and Gold Tooth of Wealth to cover its symbolism of greed.
• Here lies Hot Mom — A true MILF (Mother I'd Like to... Forget).^note People couldn't seem to grasp the concept of In-Universe Examples Only, instead continuing to flood thus with ZCEs and creepy gushing, necessitating a deliberate redlinking. Since even in-universe examples proved to be redundant with tropes like Stacy's Mom and Mrs. Robinson, it was cut.
• Here lies Infant Immortality — Its odds of surviving were improbable, so we witnessed the Death of a Child.^note It was a Trope In Aggregate, but the vast majority of examples were Aversions, which are not examples, and one section was dedicated to "partial aversions", which isn't a valid way of Playing with a Trope. This led to Death of a Child being created to cover said aversions and this one being renamed to discourage misuse.
• Here lies Like a Badass Out of Hell — Cast right back into the fiery pit.^note Badly-named combination of different tropes, which were all split off from it.
• Hear lyes Mondegreen — Some people may have misheard its last requests.^note Turned into a Definition-Only Page after being split off into I Heard That As as well as the more tropeworthy Mondegreen Gag and Lady Mondegreen.
• Here lies My Name Is Not Durwood — Through Hanlon's Razor, its malice was discovered to be accidental.^note Unclear name, combined with covering two distinct concepts (characters getting names wrong by accident, and characters getting names wrong out of spite).
• Here lies Next Gen Fic — If we flash forward a few years, nobody will remember it except its children.^note Unclear description made it ambiguous whether it referred to any fanfic that took place after a Time Skip or fanfics that specifically included Original Characters who are offspring of canon characters. It was disambiguated into two new tropes that each covered one of those ideas.
• Here lies Political Correctness Gone Mad — Political Correctness Is Evil, so we had to write this epitaph carefully so as not to offend anyone.^note Unclear name led to the trope being used for different definitions and also attracted "political correctness exists" entries, which are political chairs.
• Here lie Prongs Of Poseidon — Stabbed by Satan with his Devil's Pitchfork.^note Was misused for any character who uses a trident as a weapon, and thus was split. The original name now covers tridents used by marine-themed characters while Devil's Pitchfork covers those used by infernal ones.
• Here lie Schoolgirl Lesbians — Expelled.^note Frequently misused to simply refer to lesbians in school. The page was turned into a disambiguation page between various tropes, with Coming Of Age Queer Romance and Gay Romantic Phase being launched to cover non-Chairs examples that weren't already covered by other tropes.
• Here lies The Southpaw — Amputated.^note Left-handed armchairs. The page was turned into a disambiguation page for proper tropes related to left-handedness, some of which were launched as part of the effort to clean up The Southpaw.
• Here lies Stop Helping Me! — Its help was unwanted, and it became annoying.^note Split due to covering two distinct concepts related to receiving help in video games — an objective trope covering intentional portrayals of helpers as annoying, and a YMMV concept for when fans find the helpers annoying.
• Here lies Surprise Creepy — Jumpscared by someone in a disguise, but the heart attack was more than momentary.^note The trope was covering two different concepts at the same time, so it was split accordingly.
• Here lies The Suzi Quatro Principle — Split up and became the bassist and vocalist for different bands.^note The former trope namer (with whom not everyone was familiar) filled both roles in her all-male backing bands, a fact which led to an overly narrow trope, necessitating the split into two separate tropes about female rockers (one about singers and the other about bass guitarists).
• Here lies Tier Induced Scrappy — Ascended to a better (or maybe worse) place.^note Kept attracting gushing rather than the intended audience reaction, so it was split into examples aimed at the current metagames.
• Here lies Transgender Fetishization — Got tired and lost its libido from chasing a trans person.^note Was supposed to be about the tendency for trans/gender nonconforming characters to be hypersexualized, but its broad definition attracted examples where a trans/GNC character is involved in a sexual situation regardless. Thus it was split into Trans Equals Hypersexual and Trans Chaser, while the old name was disambiguated into those and other related tropes such as Attractive Bent-Gender.
• Here lies Tyrannosaurus Rex — Wiped out by a meteor.^note A T. rex appearing in a work is dinosaur chairs. It was split into Terrifying Tyrannosaur (formerly King of the Dinosaurs) for the T. rex being the most powerful dinosaur in a work, T. Rexpy for animals based off the T. rex, and a Useful Notes page for the real-life T. rex species.
• Here lies Vendor Trash — Players went to the shop and sold it for something better.^note Had an ambiguous trope name that led to a lot of misuse, so it was split into two separate, but related concepts: an objective trope for video game items whose only purpose is being sold, and an Audience Reaction for video game items that do have an actual purpose (unrelated to being sold) but are usually sold regardless.
• Here lies Weapon Of Choice — Wasn't chosen because it didn't fit the wielder's personality or specialty.^note Was supposed to be about weapons used to indicate a character's personality, but was misused for characters preferring certain weapons or just having them, the latter which is weaponized chairs. Thus, it was split into Weapon-Based Characterization, Weapon Specialization, and Weapons and Wielding Tropes.
• Here lies Wedding Day — Objections were raised during both the episode and the finale.^note Original was ceremonial chairs, so tropeworthy concepts were split off.
• Here lies You Fail the IQ Test — Its IQ was too high/low for Mensa.^note The old name was made into a Useful Notes page while the the trope was split into Improbably High I.Q. and Improbably Low I.Q..

Defunct Traditions

• Here lies Accidental Nightmare Fuel — It was prone to accidents, so ordinary Nightmare Fuel replaced it.^note Originally intended to cover unintentionally scary moments, while reserving High-Octane Nightmare Fuel (originally called Nightmare Fuel Unleaded) for intentionally scary moments. Due to Trope Decay and problems with differentiating intentional examples from unintentional ones, the two were determined to be redundant with each other and Nightmare Fuel ended up being used for both. High-Octane Nightmare Fuel was turned into a redirect, and Accidental Nightmare Fuel was turned into a Fan Speak page, with examples for both intentional and unintentional horror being listed under Nightmare Fuel.
• Here lies The Archive of Bellicose Lexicon Entities — Mealtime is over. ^note A page about troper groups whose philosophies of categorising tropes were named after dining room items; factionalism and figurative foodfights among tropers led to the dish-continuation of these groups.
• Yahaan nihit the namespace Bollywood/ hai — Off to Mumbai for its next big role.^note Essentially The Same, but More Specific to the Film/ namespace, and we don't have enough pages for Indian cinema to have its own namespace like the Anime/ and Manga/ namespace.
• Here lie Character-Named Tropes — Their names won't live on.^note The page was supposed to encourage the removal of character-based names, but unintentionally did the opposite. As such, it was added to the Permanent Red Link Club.
• Here lies Complain About Shows You Don't Like — Died of complications related to Complaining About People Not Liking the Show.^note Exactly what it sounds like — a repository for Complaining About Shows You Don't Like. Since its brand of complaining was too heated even for Darth Wiki, it was added to the Permanent Red Link Club.
• Here lies Counterpart Comparison — Its death was surprisingly similar to another one.^note Meant to list character comparisons shared among fanbases. In addition to frequently being misused, it was deemed redundant with and thus redirected to Surprisingly Similar Characters.
• Here lies Creator Bashing — This headstone could be self-demonstrating, but let's not Speak Ill of the Dead.^note Before it was deemed redundant with and redirected to Complaining About Shows You Don't Like, the page was nothing but a warning not to do it. The original version of the page actually encouraged bashing creators, provided you did so in the form of pointing out a different creator that did it better — or were bashing Uwe Boll or Seltzer and Friedberg. Modern wiki policies are super against this kind of negativity.
• Here lie Trope Pantheons: Disgraces — Proof that even the lowest can descend.^note Attracted huge amounts of work and character bashing that was deemed unnecessarily toxic and inappropriate for the Pantheon.
• Here lie Trope Pantheons: Fallen — They won’t be rising up again.^note Was meant to be a place for characters who had tropes considered bad, but was eventually deemed redundant to the Pantheon.

• Here lie Fanfic Ideas — Died from hurt-no-comfort.^note A sandbox of ideas for fanfiction someone could write, it blew up to a whole unapproved namespace before people remembered to Take It to the Forums. To this thread, specifically.
• Here lies Fetish Fuel — Vehicles powered by arousal were deemed hazardous to the environment.^note The whole concept was a violation of the content policy, and even without that, major Too Much Information.
• Here lie Free Potholing Phrases — They were far too costly.^note A deliberate Pothole Magnet constructed from pothole-magnet redirects (yes, really), it lasted approximately one month before the obvious realization kicked in that it was a terrible idea.
• Here lie "Hey, It's That Guy!" and "Hey, It's That Voice!" — Their killer was the same guy who starred in... you know, that show.^note Meant to be for actors or voices who were not as recognizable on their own as they were for a specific role they played (e.g. "that guy from [show X] who played [well-known character]"); eventually mutated into basically listing other roles the actor did, regardless of how recognizable the role or the actor in question was. Actors having multiple roles is a case of People Sit on Chairs. These two also kept getting used as a Verbal Tic when Role Association could do instead, thus placing them in the Permanent Red Link Club to prevent people from recreating them.
• Here lie Home Video Distributors — Went out of business.^note Home video distributors are neither creators nor tropes, so they were deemed to be outside the scope of the wiki. It was replaced by MediaNotes.Home Video Distributors, while the old contents were migrated off-site. Some articles about specific home video distributors were moved to the Creator namespace.
• Here lie Hyphenated Titles — Their hopes were dashed.^note While the wiki supports the creation of hyphenated titles, they cause issues with linking and formatting and are thus deprecated.
• Here lie Imminent Arrivals — Death is inevitable for everyone, including this page.^note Used to list upcoming works that don't have a page, but are expected to get one at some point. Due to policy changes regarding troping of unreleased works, it was cut in favor of using a sandbox and the List of Shows That Need Summary page to track upcoming works.
• Here lies Just For Fun: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine — Died while fighting in the Bajoran resistance.^note Was meant to be a list of which Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episodes were plot-relevant, but it also involved complaining in the form of listing some episodes under "not recommended".
• Here lies Just For Fun: Skyrim Guide — Took an arrow to the knee, because obvious reference is obvious. ^note  Was meant to be a guide giving advice for Skyrim, but was deleted due to it bordering on Walkthrough Mode.
• Here lies Just For Fun: Steven Universe — All we wanted to do was see it turn into a member of the Permanent Red Link Club.^note Was meant to list which Steven Universe episodes were plot-relevant, but had the same problem as Deep Space Nine's JFF page.
• Here lies Just For Fun: Troper Dating Service — Fell victim to a Romantic False Lead.^note Moderators felt that such a page would be too problematic to keep around, especially with some tropers being minors.
• Here lies the namespace LetsPlay/ — Playtime is over.^note After concerns were raised about whether let's plays count as tropable works, it was determined that the namespace for them is redundant with other namespaces, primarily WebVideo/ since most Let's Play pages are for video-based let's plays, though the presence of text-based let's plays in the namespace led to some being migrated to namespaces for text-based works instead (with said namespace migrations being decided on a case-by-case basis), such as Blog/.
• LightNovel/ namae kūkan ga koko ni nemuru — Was too light of a read and tore easily.^note Was deemed redundant to the Literature namespace and was often a source of confusion between that and Anime and Manga namespaces on where examples off page should be listed in.
• Here lies the namespace Machinima/ — Was bought out by a big company and had all their videos privated before ceasing operations.^note Redundant to the Web Video and Web Animation namespaces.
• Here lies Neutral Wiki — Eh... it existed.^note Intended as a neutral counterpart to Darth Wiki and Sugar Wiki, mostly for the purpose of a "neutral Janet" gag page but extended to things like Boil That Aesop. Determined to be an invalid namespace and redundant with the Just for Fun namespace.
• Here lie Pages Needing Images — The gravestone has been declared BUPKIS.^note A former component of Pages Needing Wiki Magic, until it was declared that images aren't required for pages, rendering this sub-index moot.
• Here lie Personal Appearance Tropes — Tropes are too meaningful to be judged by their appearance, but the same isn't true of chairs.^note Tropes related to appearance were discovered to largely be devoid of meaning in addition to being Zero-Context Example magnets, to the point that a dedicated cleanup project (which was retired in 2022 in favor of TRS) was created to reduce the amount of Trope Repair Shop threads. The Personal Appearance Tropes index itself was later retooled into a hub for other indexes in hopes of further emphasizing the problematic nature of appearance tropes.
• Here lies Please Elaborate — Its not-so-elaborate schemes were its undoing.^note Intended to draw attention to Zero Context Examples so someone can salvage them. The standard procedure for ZCEs is to comment them out, expand upon them, or delete them, not add sub-bullets that act as natter. Please Elaborate was added to the Permanent Red Link Club after being cut.
• Here lies the Ptitle system — It wasn't full of crap; it was full of P.^note The Ptitle system allowed special characters like punctuation and accented letters, as well as special formatting, in titles, but it came at the cost of human-readable URLs. They were replaced with the custom title system, which allows special characters and formatting to be applied to plain-text wiki words.
• Here lie Snowclone-based names — Everything's Better Without Them.^note Names snowcloned from other names, particularly the infamous "Everything's [adjective] with [noun]" family that used to be common for Garnishing the Story (itself renamed from Everything's Better with Indexes) tropes, became deprecated due to issues with clarity, with several even determined to not be tropes at all. Some have stuck around due to the Grandfather Clause, with others have been renamed or even cut after being taken to the Trope Repair Shop.
• Here lie Stock Phrases — No more of them coming.^note A great deal of stock phrases were discovered to have no meaning on their own, plus example lists for them tend to end up being lists of unrelated quotes.
• Here lies Synopsis — To recap on what happened, it retired.^note The Synopsis namespace was determined to be redundant with the Recap namespace. The former was merged with the latter as a result. It stayed around as a page type for a time, but that too was deprecated eventually.
• Here lies Title Bin — They're not even in the recycle bin anymore. ^note Originally intended to suggest new names for pages, but attracted pointless injokes, defeating the purpose of that page. These were moved to Tropes That Will Never Happen.
• Here lie Trope Names for a Porn Parody — Drowned while taking the cold shower that they very much needed.^note Was meant to be a joke page similar to Trope Title Shows and Trope Names for a Band, but was determined to be too NSFW.
• Here lie Troper Tales — There are some things people should really take only to their graves.^note Far too NSFW for the site even before the Content Policy was instituted, they attracted massive amounts of derision towards the community, with some commenting that TV Tropes was essentially /b/ 2.0.
• Zheli anxizhe Useful Notes: Digging to China — Found dead in a hole. Scientists are running an analysis on its remains.^note Was moved to the Analysis namespace as it seemed more like an analysis on the trope than a Useful Notes page.
• Here lie Video Ideas — Got the idea to make a Snuff Film.^note A sandbox listing ideas for video examples, essentially meant as a request list for people with time/software from people without. It was decided that it wasn't needed.
• Here lies the Video Source/ namespace — The radio star's death will not be forgotten either.^note Was declared redundant to the Video Examples auto-index, plus videos need mod approval anyways, rendering it too time consuming to update.
• Here lies Wall Banger — Idiotic moments should not cause so much self-inflicted trauma.^note Was determined to be redundant with Dethroning Moment of Suck, and what's worse, had no restrictions or guidelines like that page has, leading to it being nothing but endless complaining and even outright retreads of Dethroning Moment.
• Eia 'o the Wiki/ namespace e moe nei — There's a wiki for everything but death, which has no living witnesses.^note Was deemed redundant to have over the Website/ namespace on here after The Wiki Rule's examples got cut. Additionally, listing every wiki as their own namespace would be internet chairs.
• Here lies The Wiki Rule — Died fighting too many edit wars.^note Wikipedian chairs, so it was made definition-only and all wicks on the works' Trivia pages (which only consisted of links to the respective fan wikis) were excised.
• Here lies WMG: She's Got Legs — Amputated.^note It was a WMG page for a trope, which are not allowed.
• Here lies the You Keep Using That Word/ namespace — Someone had to point out that there could only be one true meaning.^note Instead of being used to list in-universe cases of someone insisting that a word can only have "one true meaning" (its original one) and "calling out" someone else for using a secondary definition, it was a list of words that see common misuse in real life, which meant that it was misusing the trope by definition and redundant with Commonly Misused Words and The Big List of Booboos and Blunders.
