This thread is for tropers who have trouble with English and would like some help with the crazy grammar of this crazy language.
Write down what you wish to edit on the wiki. If you have been suspended from editing, another troper might be kind enough to edit for you after your suggestions have been corrected.
The thread is for help and feedback on your own suggested edits.
If you want help correcting other people's edits (e.g., if you find a page which seems to have grammar problems but want a second opinion, or you don't feel able to fix it by yourself) then that's off-topic here, but we have a separate Grammar Police cleanup thread
that can provide assistance.

I wondered why somethin' seemed off. It's like I'm listening to a recording of myself."... "Right down to not being able to mourn my folks when they died..."

I'll try this again. Hunter of His Own Kind should not be potholed to "Hunter of his partner's kind". The example needs to say what his own kind is and why he's hunting them. Not So Different needs to say how they seem so very different and what they find they actually have in common.

Here is a contribution to The Infinite Loops:
Badass Normal: The Postal Dude cannot obtain any out of loop powers such as the Force, magic, or anything along those lines. He can however put things in a Subspace pocket like any other looper, so he's not completely outclassed.

for those who are helping me: I need help to see any GRAMMAR problems. please keep to that (this is the only way I may be able to edit pages).

under foreshadowing: The Zangetsu - Baron gaiden movie if watched after ep 20 (when it takes place in universe) gives a blink and you'll miss it shot of Kaito shifting into his [spoiler: Lord Baron form]. Fitting as the baron portion of this story solidifies Kaito's decision to tear apart the world he sees [spoiler: and create a world when the weak are not preyed upon].
There's no point in correcting grammer problems unless you give full, relevant context in your examples, what you would actually be editing on the site.
I don't edit much, just pages I like.

for https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/FanFic/ADifferentKindOfTruth under Wham Episode:ch 19-20 Achtung Baby Parts 4-5 in which both Kanji and Gio's shadows have been revealed to be going after their non midnight channel selves.

No, what Lex means is what you type here should be in the same format as if you were editing on the wiki itself. Your last two entries above should look like this:
- Foreshadowing: The Zangetsu - Baron gaiden movie, if watched after episode 20 (which is when the movie takes place in universe) gives a blink and you'll miss it shot of Kaito shifting into his Lord Baron form. Fitting as the Baron portion of this story solidifies Kaito's decision to tear apart the world he sees and create a world when the weak are not preyed upon.
- Wham Episode: Chapters 19 and 20, Achtung Baby Parts 4 and 5. After both Kanji and Gio's shadows have been revealed to be going after their non midnight channel selves. With the increasing competency of each successive shadow inside the TV world, and based on how much of a Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass cannon shadow Kanji was, it seems that the IT will have their work cut out for them once they reach the bathing house dungeon.

sorry it's been over six months since I have been allowed to edit. The specifics on how the entries are formatted for editing on the wiki itself I am attempting to use from memory. do you know of a forum topic that goes over the specifics on the editing format for the site?

Thank you valozzy. That is exactly what I am looking for.

for the following page:
- Big Bad: So far the unknown Persona user Eris seems to be this, though time will tell what her exact relationship with Zodiac and its murders is. It's revealed in the 2/28 chapter that eris is Fluttershy and she has been doing the things she has been out of fear of Sunset Shimmer who has complete control of Zodiac and the ability to kill as many people as she wants.
- Bigger Bad: Mephistopheles, with all indicators pointing to Sunset Shimmer being their true identity
- The Dreaded: Sunset Shimmer to Fluttershy as she has no desire to actively fight her directly.
- Wham Episode: Where to begin?
- How about the February 9 2016 episode? Sunset Shimmer sneaks into the dorm and rapes Flash.
- February seems to have a penchant for this, as we find out the true identity of Eris in the 2/28/16 chapter.
Patron Saint of Laboratories
During Grodd Lives, Harrison Wells/Eobard Thwane talks about how Eddie was the forgotten member of the family and how he would never amount to as much as his descendants.
But considering what Eobard is like and his family in the comics, it is equally likely that Eddie's respectable career as a detective is a disappointment simply because the rest of the family is made up of powerful Super-Villains, Corrupt Corporate Executives, and President Evil.
Can I ask for help with this entry?
Dying Town: Almost every location Kate travels through in the first game appears to be a half deserted town past its prime:
- Valadilene was once world-famous for its automaton factory. Since then it seems to have fallen on hard times as the demand for Voralberg automatons decreased and many young people left the town to seek employment elsewhere. Many inhabitants fear that the dead of Anna Voralberg may mean the closedown of the factory and the ultimate end of the town.
- Despite all its grandeur, there appears to be almost no students on the campus of Barrockstadt University. Local stationmaster admits that, while he still remembers days when students would come from all around the world to study in Barrockstadt, he hasn’t seen a train come to the station in a very long time.
Ghost Town: Komkolzgrad was once a Communist industrial complex, but has since been abandoned. The only people left are crazed director of the complex Siergiej Borodin and former astronout turned alkoholic Borys Charow.

Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy under Films-Live Action
- My Girl gives us the boisterous,risk taker tomboy Vada who has an obsession with death and the nerdy Thomas J whose allergic to everything and scares easy.
Could you also include this trope on the film's page as well?
edited 22nd May '15 11:06:00 PM by starkitty93
Just another animation junkie
Allergic to everything and scares easy isn't feminine and when you write an example you need '' before and after the title and a space after the comma.
Question. Exactly how is being allergic to everything not considered femmy? The character I believe most certainly qualifies for not being stereotypically masculine. Does this pair at least qualify for the Savvy Guy, Energetic Girl trope?
Just another animation junkie
Allergies are a physical weakness. Weakness is no more feminine than ugliness is masculine. Not being stereotypically masculine does not make him feminine. Sensitive Guy and Manly Man describes it well. "He loves poetry, literature, art, and is generally more In Touch with His Feminine Side."
If you can describe how he's down to earth and she lively then they can count for Savvy Guy, Energetic Girl.
Ok,they fit the Savvy Guy, Energetic Girl trope due to Thomas J being more cautious and physically inept while Vada is more rambunctious and eccentric

I got one for the Eyeshield21 page:
- O.O.C. Is Serious Business: At the start of the second half during the Devil Bats vs Nagas game, Hiruma tells the other Devils Bats that they should avoid getting hurt because the chances of winning are less than 1%. This is subverted because he realized that the Nagas were leaving themselves open to an onside kick, and the only way to tell the others about the change in plan without ringing any warning bells was to tell them something he would never say and hope the others got the message.
- Squishy Wizard: Yukimitsu, while not a magic user, is highly intelligent and can run the Option Route, which relies on quick thinking and observation. In the world of football,this makes him an incredibly adaptable player. However, his lack of physical training means that he can't take a hit and can't play as long as his teammates before needing to take a break.
((My thoughts is that since Yukimitsu isn't fast enough to be a Fragile Speedster, yet still possesses the devastating power/ability of a Fragile Speedster he is the closest thing the Devil Bats have to a Squishy Wizard. Thoughts?)

For a single word that need to be a link to anywhere in Tv Tropes it has to have {{ and }} around the word in question. Also, you use [[ ]] for trope links. If you are linking a page that is not a trope (I.e. anything that should go in a Awesome Page or Literature Page) you need to have it in his format: (category)/(page name). You should get this:

Also, the Seven Days in Sunny June page had some serious errors in the Book III section, so I'm fixing that in addition to some additions. I just copied the entire section to make it easy.
- Affably Evil: Divine Right. He's a gentelman decended from royalty, polite, and wishes to take over the world because he believes it is his right to do so.
- Behind the Black: The war between the Sirens and the Canadian government is what drives the Dazzlings to Canterlot.
- Big Damn Heroes: Discord was just about to officially retire - in front of all of his fans and on TV when Fluttershy rushes on stage and convenes him not to.
- Sonota also appears out of nowhere and gives Sharp Wind a curbstomp when Sharp Wind was just about to attack Twilight, Octavia, and Champagne.
- Broken Pedestal: Crackle finds out about the Vibe, Suri, and Blueblood. She doesn't take it well.
- Cold-Blooded Torture: Cantana Blast gets to perform this on Assistant Director Far North of ARROWHEAD.
- Continuity Nod:
- Sweet Pea and Scootaloo's half sister reappear from Treasure.
- Disappeared Dad: Fluttershy's. Little is known about him beyond the fact he left their family. He's later revealed to be Discord, Sunset's favorite musician.
- Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: Discord and Posey decided to live separately because of the paparazzi, among other reasons, though they're still married and see each other occasionally.
- Green-Eyed Monster: Octavia feels jealous of Sunset being closer to Twilight, especially as Octavia had not believed Sunset when she said Twilight had problems. Since her subconscious referred to Sunset as "that newcomer", something Octavia herself doesn't believe she'd call Sunset, it remains to be seen whether it's a darker part of her mind or something else.
- Happily Adopted: Sunset, if informally. It's made official as part of a birthday present to her.
- Happily Married: Sombra and Chrysalis are married to each other. Considering that their relationship started with them having sex when with each other when Sombra was 15 and Chrysalis was 12, that's quite the achievement.
- In the Blood: Divine Right, who as the descendant of Baldisare de Calvacanti believes that it is his heredity power to take over the world.
- May–December Romance: Sable Loam is only momentarily shocked to learn that Celestia is 56 while he's 31. It doesn't phase him from saying he still wants to take her on a date the following weekend. For her part, Celestia seems eager to pursue a continued relationship as well, going so far as to refuse dessert the next day in the interest of keeping herself fit and attactive, much to Luna's shock as apparently Celestia has never skipped out on desert in her life.
- Also, Luna's boyfriend Moonshadow is in his early-to-mid twenties while she's 52; his mother freaked out when she found out Luna was older than her.
- To a lesser degree, Sombra and Chrysalis, considering he was 15 and she was 12 when they first had sex.
- Mood Whiplash: The first chapter ends with someone using the Vibe from Book I to rape a young lady.
- Multiversal Conqueror: What Divine Right wants to become
- Not So Harmless: Divine Right appears to be an ameteur meddling in forces beyond his control but he also has actual magic
- Overprotective Dad: Discord is starting to show shades of this when after he and Fluttershy make ammends. Thankfully he hasn't gone out of control.
- Race Lift: Crackle is half-Chinese on her mother's side.
- Related in the Adaptation: In addition to the characters mentioned earlier, Book III has the following additions:
- Coco Pommel as the younger sister of Fancy Pants.
- DISCORD of all people is Fluttershy and Angel's Disappeared Dad.
- Tirek is Fluttershy's godfather.
- Sanity Slippage: Octavia suffers from this, which culminates in her killing an owl which Twilight takes care of.
- Sympathetic P.O.V.: While the SIRENS in Canterlot appear in a better light than SCARS, some of the other members perform some questionable actions.
- Teleport Spam: At one point, Sunset casually suggests that she take Rainbow and AJ to lunch six hundred miles south in Los Angeles via repeated chain teleport. While impressed, Rainbow reminds her friend of the consequences of that if anyone found out.
- Unexpected Character: As lampshaded by the author, Adagio Dazzle showing up (with hints of the other Dazzlings appearing as well) was highly unexpected.
- The actual human Sunset Shimmer appears in the final chapter
— UNMARKED SPOILERS WARRING
Also the character page for Seven Days in Sunny June needs work. Here is what I got so far.
Sunset Shimmer
The former Fallen Princess of Canterlot High School, whose life changes drastically when she's adopted.- The Atoner: After the Fall Formal, Sunset tries to dedeem herself. Noone believes her except her friends until she helps foil The Club's evil plans.
- Bad Ass Boast: Gives the following to Vinyl Scratch:
- Shame Vinyl had no idea what she was talkig about.
- In Book II, Sunset gives the same boast to Raspberry Beryl. She also has no idea what Sunset is talking about.
- Berserk Button: Hurt Twilight? Better start running because Sunset will go to the ends of the Earth to find you.
- Big Eater: Due to being a equine, Sunset can comfortably eat more than a normal human. In one case she eats a XXXL Fatburger, fries, and large caramel shake in a single sitting.
- Big Sister Instinct: Anyone who tries to hurt Twilight triggers Sunset's Big Sister Instinct.
- Be All My Sins Remembered: Her past haunts her at first but goes away once she becomes intertwined with her family.
- Cassandra Truth: Sunset occasionally states how old she really is (mid-thirties), her true species, and the fact she has magic. This is usually brushed off as nonsense by those not in the know.
- Character Development: In regards to her foster family, Sunset is rather aloof with them. Over time, she quickly grows very close to them, especially Twilight and Octavia.
- Culture Blind: Due to Sunset growing up in Equestria, many of the references to pop culture go over her head.
- Determinator: Sunset does not give up when it comes to someone she cares about.
- Epic Fail: Sunset shouts her Badass Boast at Vinyl when she's confronts her during the end of the Vibe Arc. Vinyl has no idea what Sunset is talking about.
- Sunset gives the same boast to Raspberry Beryl in Book II. She also has no idea what Sunset is talking about, and Raspberry is a native Equestrian.
- Happily Adopted: Well, happily fostered, at any rate. Whether she'll be actually adopted is still a mystery.
- In Book III, [spoiler: the Sparkles reveal that they're officially adopting her. Sunset is overjoyed.
- Going Native: Sunset identifies herself more as a human rather than a pony, to the point that Princess Luna cannot enter her dreams as her mentality is more of a human's rather than a pony's.
- Identical Stranger: Sunset and Raspberry Beryl look similar apart from color schemes and cutie marks.
- Book III's ending has the human Sunset Shimmer prepare to visit Equestria County. Thus both Sunset's have an Identical Stranger.
- Mid-Season Upgrade: Just before she leaves Equestria at the end of Book II, Princess Celestia removes the Power Limiter spell she put on Sunset, allowing Sunset to access all of her magic.
- Oh, Crap!: After Shining Armor takes her to the Sparkle household, Sunset has a Oh, Crap! moment when Velvet reveals that Principal Celestia is a family friend.
- Power Limiter: When Sunset became Celestia's student, Celestia put a power limiter spell on Sunset to help her studies in magic. When Sunset ran away, the Power Limiter never got removed. At the end of Book II, Princess Celestia removes the spell so Sunset has her full, true power back and can perform much more powerful spells on Earth.
- Race Lift: Sunset is apparently Caucasian in the 7DSJverse.
- Reformed, but Rejected: At first, becoming The Atoner to make up for all she's done. After the incident with the Vibe she regains her position atop the school, but this time as a Lovable Alpha Bitch instead of just a regular one.
- Seer: Sunset can perform simple divinations. This is how she was able to catch up on current events in Equestria.
- Teleport Spam: Thanks to her power up at the end of Book II, Sunset has enough magical power to teleport from Canterlot to Los Angeles, which is several hundred miles. The catch is she needs to spam teleport spells and rest about 10-15 minutes in between teleports.

- Brainwashed: Briefly was affected by Vibe.
- Green-Eyed Monster: Octavia feels jealous of Sunset being closer to Twilight, especially as Octavia had not believed Sunset when she said Twilight had problems.
