Does Not Illustrate: Auto Revive

This trope is supposed to be "item or spell which activates upon your death to revive you". The image is...a bottle. With a fairy. I'd say it's less than illustrative.

That is JAFAAC btw. And not because "fairy" starts with "F".

Maybe a better image would be "Panel 1: Link collapsed on the floor, Panel 2: the fairy zipping around while Link gets back up"? I'm not sure where you'd find such a picture, but I'm certain if you can take screencaps of Wii games (or emulators) it should be simple to make. I do think that the Lo Z fairy would be the best to illustrate the concept (If not, maybe the Psychonauts Dream Fluffs activation message if such a thing exists), it's just that, as mentioned, the picture is Just a ball of light in a bottle and a caption.

(Before you ask, no, I don't have the required emulators for such a screencap, and I'm not likely to ever get them or games to play on them)

That is definitely just a face and a caption. My best idea for a replacement would be a screencap of the Reviver Seed from Pokemon Mystery Dungeon taking effect, which might need a "-[some high number of HP]" from a previous frame photoshopped on.

Perhaps some demonstration of the Reraise effect. I hesitate to suggest something with text, but something from Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobos Dungeon might work, since, as a Roguelike, it has a report of what happens

Damage to Chocobo: 66!
Chocobo has no more strength...
Raise spell brings Chocobo back to life!

Depends what the image looks like.

I found this image◊ while doing a GIS. You've got the PC laying down, his life bar at exactly 2499, the amount restored by the spell, it's got the stereotypical white feathers and sparkles of a life spell, and it says "Auto Life".

Clock is set (would've done it this morning but I didn't get on the computer).

Clock's up; locking for inactivity/lack of consensus. No action is to be taken based on this thread.
