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.
Is it a creative work or a reference work? We don't generally have articles for reference works because, while they may discuss tropes, they don't utilize them in storytelling. Also, I'm suspicious of something that "constantly moves around", as it becomes extraordinarily difficult for anyone to verify the content.
Edited by Fighteer "It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"It's a creative work, not a reference work. The author said he chose hosts that were free, but free webhosts tend to disappear unfortunately. However, there are traces of his creative work on Reddit, if that's a verifiable source.
No, not really. As far as namespacing, it'd probably go in Web Original for lack of a better place.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"I'll leave this until they have an actual host that's independent of being on Reddit, since you said that's not a source.
Try the WebArchive? Encourage them to post to a forum or something else with some durability, like SufficientVelocity, FictionPress, WordPress or something?

Google does blog hosting if that format is preferable.

I'm about to create a page on something related to worldbuilding, someone else's created world, but it isn't a unpublished work and not something I've created personally, so which namespace does this belong in?
The work is hosted on various sites that disappear within a few years and mentioned on Reddit at their worldbuilding subreddit, so it's not an unpublished work.
