The process by which, in a few hours, a weak page can be turned into a valid entry with enough examples to satisfy those who petitioned for its deletion.

This is rarer for tropes created after 2017 than it is for work pages because they must launch through [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/tlp_activity.php TLP (formerly YKTTW),]] essentially peer review for potential tropes. (See Administrivia/TLPGuidelines for more information on the proper procedure of introducing a trope.) Work pages have no such restriction and thus can be created by anyone. While they help the wiki grow, these pages might need improvement in a number of ways, such as proper [[Administrivia/ExampleIndentationInTropeLists indentation]], [[Administrivia/ZeroContextExample context]], and [[Administrivia/HowToAlphabetizeThings alphabetization]]. Together, editors can work the Wiki Magic, and with a little assistance, what once began as a stub may reach JustForFun/TropeOverdosed status. Wiki/TheOtherWiki refers to users who habitually make these kinds of edits as [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiGnome "WikiGnomes"]].

If you're a kind soul who's looking to give out a little Wiki Magic, go over to Administrivia/NeedsWikiMagicLove or one of its sub-indexes for a list of pages currently in need of Magic.
