Hi. Is there a thread to propose new pages for anime/manga, literature, tv/movies, western animation, etc.

The load screens. Good God, the load screens!!

Works Pages Are A Free Launch - you can just go ahead and start the page.

BTW, I'm a chick.

Indeed. Feel free to start a thread here or in one of the respective media areas if you want help with it, though. Chances are there's at least one other troper familiar with the work.

Oh cool! I wouldn't know how to start it though. I submitted a possible new trope in the YKTTW and I think I failed lol. The page I am requesting, odd as it is to hear it from me, is the infamous OVA Boku No Sexual Harassment (Also released as My Sexual Harassment) No...not me, the actual title, lol.

While I don't know off the top of my head what namespace an OVA would be in (Anime? not sure), it works like this. You wikiword the title after the namespace:

NamespaceHere/BokuNoSexualHarassment

This will create a link (mine didn't because I have crazy wiki skills). Click on that link and edit away.

Is this where "yaranaika" came from? Because if it is, I think some tropers did want to see a page for it. Can't remember who they are, though. Could try posting in the "Yaranaika" thread [lol]

[up][up] I take it you didn't quite get what we meant by namespaces. Too late now though. See this page, and keep in mind in the future we try to avoid putting new works pages in the Main namespace.

^ Was there an announcement? I didn't know about that policy until today o__O

But thank you for sharing.

[up] It's been policy for well over a year now. I'm not sure if there was an announcement initially or not.

The wiki concept doesn't work well with the concept of general announcements intended to be adopted as policy by everyone. This stuff spreads memetically.

But it can't be memetic if not enough people know about it... A forum thread would have been a start. Or the wiki newsletter.
