Imagine it; you're scrolling around late at night letting this wiki ruin your life some more when you discover a page you've never heard of before. Not unheard of on a wiki this big, but there are some things that have become really hard to access over the years, either due to being depreciated, missing good navigation links, being shoved into Darth or Sugar, or what have you. Have you made any fun discoveries? Share them here so we can get more awareness about these cool pages people don't know about before!
OK so for my first post Imma cheat and plug this silly ass glitch thread
. It's a bizarre hodgepodge of posts from all around the site, and as far as I know you can only get there on mobile through this glitch if you don't have a direct link. It's neat, really... TVT has its very own Glitch Dimension!

When it comes to our showcase, when's the last time you've heard anybody so much as mention CharacTour?

Related to something posted a month ago (I didn't even look at this thread until today, which is why the header wasn't pinned until now):
Since subforum-specific suspensions don't allow users with them to post in Edit Banned unless another type of suspension is issued as well, it's common to issue a Liveblogs suspension as a workaround. Not a single person that's been done with even noticed they were suspended from Liveblogs because of how obscure it is (or if they did notice, they didn't care about it enough to mention it).

Live blogs is so irrelevant that ironically if someone were creating issues in that area, I'm not sure they'd ever be caught and suspended legitimately.

Last year, an old live blog was reported for being misinformation but we didn't take any action on it. Liveblog reports get processed as private ATT queries for some reason so there's that. Also, flagged liveblogs have this red banner that notifies people that the liveblog has been reported.

I kind of feel like I saw at least one of those reports (considering how infrequent they are, there's a non-zero chance that we saw the exact same one and I just skipped over it when looking at ATT reports while you looked into it).
Weird that there's a type of report that uses automated ATT queries of all things, though, considering every other report function on the site (as far as I know) uses the holler system.

The Encounters namespace is another not-very-talked-about section of the wiki. It mostly deals with problems and people that a Troper might face when editing a page. I personally think it could use a serious makeover. Perhaps we could give it it's own font like Sugar Wiki and Darth Wiki, it's own color (maybe orange-ish brown) or maybe give it it's own icon that look something like one of these?: 🪧🚧❗

Encounters was discussed and we were considering reviving it, but the project never took off. Personally I think it's possible but eh...

I think those would be pretty interesting in a TV Tropes RPG—

I agree!

The Just for Fun index is home to many pages I'd like to bring up, but special mention goes to What Are the Contributors Real Names? and Where Are You From?. They're definitely more personal compared to other non-forum pages.

Thank you for that. Now I've learned some contributors' names that I keep running into, such as Jen and Elizabeth. Some I keep on seeing but not really interacting with too, such as Brandon.
I pretty much only did it since I really like info about people or things I've seen to the point that I was pretty much busting down the door to that page and running around, flipping and skimming through the records, looking for someone I know.

There's also Lousy Alternate Titles, which can best be described as Those Alternative Title Comments That You Sometimes See On YouTube: TV Tropes Edition but isn't called that due to brevity. Doesn't make it any less side-splittingly hilarious, though.
