Is the specific novels/episodes section really needed? Most of the tropes cross over between the two sections anyway. I mean i think separate pages for the books and tv series would be good, but the current division is too vague.

Yeah, I think you're right. I'm not sure I've ever seen this particular sort of division work well, but it would be better suited where there's more variety in the individual episodes/books (like, e.g., if one book had Sharpe traveling back in time to meet Cleopatra, and another had him searching for the Holy Grail or something).

The page quote. It's from the TV series, and doesn't apply to the books at all. Since this is listed under literature, it doesn't really belong.

  • Badass Spaniard: A lot of the action takes place in Spain. Some of the locals are useless. Some of them are freakin' scary. And then there's Teresa.

Badass Spaniard has been renamed to Dashing Hispanic. The trope requires some necessary characteristics, like being a rogue Anti Hero of wit and charm, kind of like Zorro. There is not enough context to tell if it fits here.

Hmm, looking at the trope description, probably no. She's badass, but basically a La Resistance guerilla leader type.
