A few hours ago in the Ask The Tropers two queries were brought up regarding an example for Dude, Not Funny! that was re-added to YMMV.Gravity Falls. The reason given for the re-addition was that Dude, Not Funny! is a YMMV trope, even though we do not allow examples for it (and several other YMMV tropes like Dude Looks Like a Lady and Actually Pretty Funny) unless it's In-Universe.

Since people don't seem to see the big bold In Universe Examples Only line at the bottom of the description and just the YMMV banner at the top, I propose that all In Universe Examples Only tropes get their own banner to avoid confusion.

On a semi-related note, we seriously should axe the YMMV banner from In Universe Examples Only tropes for similar reasons. They're effectively objective tropes anyway since subjective usage is not allowed.
