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

Removed. I was way behind the curve here. @Fighteer is correct.

Er, what? The In Universe Examples Only tag means that only examples that occur In-Universe should be listed, whether on work articles or on the trope article. It has never meant that it's okay to have examples on YMMV subpages. It was specifically intended to mean that you may not have those.

@Fighteer Slack me. I'm apparently behind the curve again...

My thoughts exactly. How many tropes have been slapped with IUEO as a Restraining Bolt against complaining that is an issue, but not outright impossible to handle (or Flame Bait, another misinterpreted and thus cheapened designation)? Seems pretty cut and dry to me, given Fighteer's post.

recently, i received the following pm, entitled YMMV.The Conversion Bureau: "You recently deleted the Love It Or Hate entry on the basis that it's In Universe Examples Only. Your similar deletion in Paper Mario: Color Splash was undone since "Only on the trope's page is it In Universe Examples Only. It can still be listed on the YMMV section of a work's page.", I think mods got involved. That's at odds with how other IUEO tropes work, but that's the common usage. If you have a problem with that (I'd fully understand, as I see little difference from this tropes usage and Broken Base), I'd take it to TRS."
Is this true?
