I removed "Of course, one should keep in mind that the author of an Anvilicious work almost always believes that his or her particular anvil is one of these." after reading this under Square Peg Round Trope: "•Some Anvils Need To Be Dropped refers to when a story has an Anvilicious message, but the story actually works better because it's so blatant. Due to the misleading title, it's often used to say "any message I agree with that was done in an Anvilicious manner"." Now, that removed part would make sense if it was the latter definition that was the real one, but I don't believe it's true if it claims that all anviliciousness is born from someone trying to make a point by being the opposite of subtle. Surely it can come about because someone is not realising how unsubtle they're being.
