My works tend to have:

* Female main character.
* Athletic female characters who are wiry or willowy. They also tend to range from average bust size to Pettanko. (Usually leaning towards Pettanko.)
* GenderBlender names and nicknames.
* There is normally at least one HappilyMarried couple in each of my stories.[[hottip:*:This is pure AuthorAppeal. I find people who have decided to spend the rest of their lives together much more romantic than a dating couple who've been together for a short period of time.]] There are still screwed up relationships, but there's usually happy couples to balance those out.
* {{Meaningful Name}}s. A lot of the time, my character names are significant, although I try to avoid obvious meanings. The name meanings are rarely discussed in story.
* Mythology references.
* Characters who express their feelings through actions rather than words. This can be because of being reserved, shy, or just lousy at expressing feelings in words.
* Lots of playing with assumptions (of both the characters and the audience).
* Third person limited POV.
* More than one viewpoint character, although usually only one per chapter.

Hello. I'm Lady Momus. My name comes from Momus, the Greek god of satire and biting commentary. The "Lady" is there so no one mistakes me for a guy.

I am a huge bookworm with an unhealthy love of puns. I'm also a huge {{Nerd}}. Or {{Geek}}. Maybe both. (I never did understand the difference between the two.) My interests include anime/manga, comic books, mythology, and sci-fi/fantasy.

I have a blog, [[http://super-critique.com/ Super-Critique]], where I write about comics and superheroes.

'''Pages I Have Contributed To:'''
* [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Es/HomePage TV Tropes Spanish Home Page]]- I created the original BlindIdiotTranslation. Thankfully, Tropers with much better Spanish skills have improved it since then.
** I use a sockpuppet account, @/DamaMomus, for my edits on the Spanish section of the Wiki. Most of those edits are fixing formatting and typos.
* [[{{Understatement}} A Few Others]]- 99% of my edits on TVTropes have been correcting {{Red Link}}s, removing wicks for members of the PermanentRedLinkClub and fixing minor typos. It's a healthy outlet for my GrammarNazi tendencies.

[[folder:How to fix strange symbols in the middle of an article]]
''Smart quotes are an abomination unto the LORD and should be removed on sight.'' - @/{{Micah}}

Ever run into odd symbols in the middle of text? Well, this can happen when [=copying/pasting=] text from a Word Processor into a page on the Wiki. Non-English characters, smart quotes[[hottip:*:"curly" quotes]], and punctuation marks are the main culprits.

See the @/DamaMomus page for a list of these mistakes and what the proper symbol should be.

@/{{Grobi}}: Correcting redlinks, removing wicks for PermanentRedLinkClub-Members, fixing typos, not knowing/not caring for the difference between "{{Nerd}}" and "{{Geek}}"... You're not me, are you?[[hottip:*:Okay, I'm a guy and from Germany, and you are not. Ergo, you're most definitely ''not'' me. Still, what a coincidence... :D]]
->Lady Momus: You're right. We have too much in common. You're really my AlternateUniverse twin, aren't you? The only question is: which one of us is the good twin? :P

** I haven't really added any content to the Spanish wiki since then, but I have fixed some formatting mistakes.[[hottip:*: If you're curious see the "How to fix strange symbols in the middle of an article" folder below to see what I've learned.]]
* FrequentRedLinks- I suggested the current format of this page.
* WildMassGuessing- I added a couple of my pet theories to the WMG/JackieChanAdventures and WMG/GreenLantern sections.

Here are the original symbol(s) and the corrected symbol. Or at least, the ones I've figured out.

[[folder:Messing around to format trope change proposal]]
The FrequentRedlinks page currently refers to a tool to find the 500 most common redlinks. Sadly, this tool hasn't worked in some time, and the page has very little information aside from that. (The entire page is three sentences long.)

I would like to propose rewriting the page so that the page lists causes of red links and how to fix them. (Note: Most of this information exists somewhere on the wiki. However, the information isn't all available in one place, which can make it difficult to find if you don't know where to look.)

Here's an draft, so you can see what I'm talking about.

'''Frequent Redlinks'''

[[RedLink Red links]] are often [[RougeAnglesOfSatin misspellings]], abbrevs., or [[WorksNeedingSummary works we don't have pages on yet]][[hottip:* :or names starting with Mc- or other words naturally in CamelCase without the proper markup]].

Here is a list of the common causes of red links and how to fix them.

1) Misspellings \\
Example: AntiVillian instead of AntiVillain \\
How to fix: [[CaptainObvious Correct the misspelling.]]

2) Plural Trope Names \\
Example: CompleteMonsters \\
How to fix: Put the trope within two curly braces with the plural letter(s) outside the braces. \\
[={{Complete Monster}}s=] becomes {{Complete Monster}}s

3) Mixed case names \\
Examples: McDonalds, DeWitt \\
How to Fix: Put name inside [= [= =] =] \\
[=[=McDonalds=]=] becomes [=McDonalds=]

4) Abbreviations and Mixtures of letters and numbers \\
Examples: CMoA, AK47s, DVDs \\
How to fix: Put the desired text in between [= [= =] =] \\
[=[=AK47s=]=] becomes [=AK47s=] \\
OR \\
If the full name of the abbreviation has a page, use this formatting: [=[[NameOfTrope Abbreviation]]=] \\
[=[[CrowningMomentOfAwesome CMoA]]=] becomes [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome CMoA]]

5) Referring to pages that are not on the main namespace (such as the Film or FanFic namespaces).\\
How to fix: [=Namespace/PageTitle=] \\
[=Film/GroundhogDay=] becomes Film/GroundhogDay

6) [[ListOfShowsThatNeedSummary Works we don't have pages for yet.]] \\
Red links for works pages should be left alone.

7) Members of the PermanentRedlinkClub. (See page for further details.)

I would like to propose rewriting the page so that it lists common causes of RedLinks and how to fix them. (Note: Most of this information exists somewhere on the wiki (and most of it is copy-pasted from various pages. However, the information isn't all available in one place.)

Here's a rough draft of what I'm proposing:

Here are common causes of redlinks and how to fix them:

[={{Complete Monster}}s=] will display as {{Complete Monster}}s

How to Fix: Put name inside [= [= =] =]

[= [=AK47s=] =] produces [=AK47s=] \\

If the full name of the abbreviation has a page, use this formatting to [= [[NameOfTrope Abbreviation]] \\
[=[[CrowningMomentOfAwesome CMoA]]=] produces this: [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome CMoA]]

5) Referring to pages that are not on the main namespace. Items that are on separate namespaces (for example \\
Example: \\
How to fix: [=Namespace/PageTitle=] \\
[=Film/Avatar=] becomes Film/Avatar

Frequent Redlinks

The FrequentRedlinks page doesn't really provide any useful information currently. It refers to a tool to find the 500 most common redlinks. Sadly, this tool hasn't worked in some time.

I would like to propose rewriting the page so that it lists

Lady Momus is a [[strike:strange]] pleasantly eccentric woman, combining elements of PungeonMaster, {{Nerd}}, bibliophile and GrammarNazi. Her interests include anime, manga, comic books, mythology, and sci-fi/fantasy.

Lady Momus's name comes from Momus, the Greek god of satire and biting commentary. The "Lady" was included to make sure that no one mistook her for a guy.

Lady Momus is a self-proclaimed {{Nerd}} when it comes to mythology, and proud of it. ([[CaptainObvious In case her name didn't clue you in]].)

Lady Momus created the original Spanish Home Page for TV Tropes. Thankfully, her BlindIdiotTranslation has been improved by other tropers with a better grasp of the Spanish language than her. View the much improved page here:
http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Es/HomePage.

Also, Lady Momus has a blog, Super Critique, in which she rambles about anything superhero or comics related. Feel free to check it out here:
