Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread

I don't think there is such a thing as a trope only allowing examples on its own page. That sort of defeats the point of it being a trope.
It sounds like you want the opposite of No On-Page Examples, which...doesn't exist.

Not entirely sure if this is what you mean, but there is Example Sectionectomy, which has links to indexes of pages that don't allow examples at all.
I didn't choose the troping life, the troping life chose me
All Flame Bait tropes are on-page only by default, that's for certain. Other than that, I only know about Getting Crap Past the Radar (because it happened not that long ago), which was done to fight rampant misuse, with a perspective to make this decision permanent; it may or may not be the only trope with such treatment, which would explain the lack of dedicated index.
And the Getting Crap Past the Radar thing was supposed to be temporary, but people just cut the examples and moved on and not a lot of people actually went back to the pages after June 1. It was a really weird decision IMO, and very hard to enforce.
Edited by mightymewtron I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.
I have three questions. Because of the way they're structured, you can only answer two.
1) Do you guys have a list of tropes that only allow on-page examples?
2) If so, where can I find it?
3) If not, then why don't you have one?
