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
for ongoing cleanup projects.
Yes, don't put spoiler tags on them. Kind of defeats the purpose of the subpages.

Understood (bring out chainsaw).
I don't think Spoilers Off or Handling Spoilers mentions that rule. The rule should probably be added there so that people can link to those pages in the edit reasons when removing spoiler tags from the Awesome/Funny/Heartwarming/Tearjerker pages.
Yes, it should be add there. Currently I just link back to this querry.
What about Nightmare Fuel?
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?
Does this apply to headscratchers pages too? They seem an odd place to put spoiler tags anyway, they are pages where people actively go looking answers to questions and issues they saw in the material. I've just come across one with a huge chunk of spoilered text in it.
^I think the page does mention headscratchers, too.
... I would assume if someone's on Headscratchers, they don't mind being spoiled. Or have finished the work.

In general, is spoiler-tagging allowed on Awesome/Funny/Heartwarming/Tearjerker pages? I'm sure this was asked some time ago, but one of the mods confirmed that Awesome and Tear Jerker subpages shouldn't have spoiler markup. Does this also go for Funny and Heartwarming subpages?
