Working Title: How I Wrote This Article Article: From YKTTW

Anonymous Mc Cartneyfan: Insufficiently dense examples is not a reason to cut!

  • Is too. Quoth the Three Rules Of Three: "The burden of proof is upon the person proposing the Trope. To prove that your concept is a Trope, it's a good idea to have at least three solid examples that clearly illustrate your Trope's Thesis." Only the FoxTrot example is a clear illustration. The others are "X is an example of this trope" with no further explanation — someone not familiar with those works (such as I) truly has no idea how those works are examples of the trope if they're not explained at all in the trope list.

Anonymous Mc Cartneyfan: Okay. I added explanations for Adaptation and one of the joke articles on writer's block. Does it help?

  • A bit. I'll sit this one out and see what the others think.

Fighteer: This article has promise; it's a real phenomenon that I've observed several times, most notably from Dave Barry. It just Needs Wiki Love.
