The models and pornstars formerly listed in the Real Life section.
Like I said, they're full figured women who are both presented as beautiful and are appreciated that way by their audience, which means they ARE examples of the trope.
And instead of the No Real Life Examples Please disclaimer, simply put something to the effect of "remember, this is a plus sized woman who is presented by the story/media as beautiful, not just a plus sized woman you think is hot." Hopefully that way we avoid more obscure examples like celebrity wives and talk show guests.
I would also add that when it comes to image links, one picture per entry. If people want to see more of these women, that's what Google is for.

No objections, then?
List them under Fashion or whatever, not Real Life.
Rhymes with "Protracted."Whether or not their appreciated by their audience is none of our concern. The point it that their presented as attractive in the in a spefic work. Still though pornstars and models would fit this trope but I also agree with Fighteer that porn generally doesn't makes highly varied use of its genre conventions, and I don't wanna put a section that encourages people to simply make lists. I don't see why a simple quip in the film section won't suffice.
I've gone ahead and done it. Sorry for the delay, I've been busy.
Lock, please?
Okay, hang on, whoa whoa WHOA. Who the everlasting fuck said you could insert a list of offsite links to porn? Absolutely, categorically, no. NO.

What do we do about the NSFW Baroque paintings links in the description?
Well, a fellow (to you) mod (IIRC), Troaccid, did seem to give tacit permission a few posts ago. :)
I wasn't following up on this thread; I merely inserted my opinion a while back. I just had my attention called to what looks alarmingly like an attempt to turn TV Tropes into a porn catalog.
That baroque picture is fine. It certainly doesn't show anything I can't find on the cover of People Magazine. And Troaccid is not a mod.
Okay, I'm calming down a bit. What is acceptable is to give names of people. What is not acceptable is offsite links. If someone really wants to find pictures of these folks, that's what Google is for.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Aha, a page for that! Thanks. I don't know why I thought so; probably something on another thread. Well, ignorance fought.
I didn't. I said that pornstars, granted, in specific works, would fit this trope but it wasn't worth it to give them their own section.

Yeah, and anyway, I don't think we need to bother mentioning porn, or in fact Real Life examples at all. I'm going to go ahead and call this one by moderator fiat. No Real Life Examples Please will remain, especially if the alternative is what just happened.
Edit: Oh, that offsite link in the description. Sorry, I thought you were talking about the page image. Axed.

What examples would you want in those folders?
