Trope link lists?

I've noticed multiple times that tropes don't get updated on the tropes page. I.E. The example isn't entered, or the person forgot, etc. What would be nice is if for trope pages you can see a (non forum non trope list) of ALL pages linking to it. What this would accomplish is providing a list (possibly editable) that could be used to keep track of leftover examples on the site that still need to be entered. Then, more over-used or well known tropes will be recognized better and the piece of fiction will be recognized as well. It also raises Google search criteria according to something I read on wikia about promoting sites. I've also noticed that various lists get un-alphabetized (laziness most likely). I don't mean to pick on anyone. I just want this to be added so it's easier for people to keep up with stuff to be added.

Just click the 'Related' link on any wiki article.

And "TV Tropes 2.0" should end up automating crosslinking anyway.

thanks

true, but it says to write a brief description for each example. I'd write the example for the work, but naturally you'd go a bit more in-depth for the trope page's example. After all, you'd be less likely to know about the work, or have some form of context.

Actually, examples on both sides ought to be understandable without relying on outside context.

fair enough, but they still might be written slightly different, if anything to describe the use of the trope more in relation to the actual trope rather than just its example in the work.
