TRS decided that the tropes Black Magician Girl and White Magician Girl needed to be cleaned up. Both tropes were intended to denote a character type:

Oftentimes examples have lacked in context or are misused as simply "female Black Mage/White Mage". This thread exists to eliminate misuse and ZCE's.

So, what would Dark Magician Girl herself count as? Also, I think Mercedes counts as a White Magician Girl.

Assuming it's too late, would it still help if I posted the sandbox for the supertrope here? I have some stuff I've written in Notepad but I'm going to need to example sort before I can copy-paste everything. Otherwise I might add it to the Black and White Magic page if it can stand on its own.

I could also just cut the middle man and edit the description as I suggested here since that's (likely) the most proactive.
