Hello. Just a few months ago, Hate Sink was made a super-trope. Given that, it should not be listed when its sub-tropes are like Dirty Coward, Bitch in Sheep's Clothing, Smug Snake, and so on.

As such, I removed it from Endou's section, but it was put back. Thoughts on what to do with her entry?

Well SAO has its own Hate Sink subpage, with Endou listed there. Super trope or not, examples on a trope page should be crosswicked to the work pages. Unless you are saying every example ever should be removed from Hate Sink.

I thought super-tropes are not to be listed in a character section when it’s sub-tropes are (i.e. Character Death is a super-trope of Killed Off for Real, so we should not list both in a character section). According to XFllo's note on ATT:

When dealing with supertropes and subtropes, the policy is to exclusively use the most specific trope that fits the example. We only use the supertrope if there is no subtrope that it fits in.

Hate Sink feels like a special example as the subtrope isnt self explanatory of the super trope like the death ones. I may be wrong though, maybe asking ATT would be worthwhile.

Could you check back at the ATT thread please. We've replied there
