Ever since I came on here, I saw that most of the topics have perfectly good descriptions of them. So just who wrote the topics anyways? I mean ever single one not counting what its related too(like "This contains with the tropes" so forth)

You mean the trope pages? Lots of people wrote them. And then more people polished them up, tweaking a sentence her or there, cleaning up the grammar, making an explanation clearer, things like that.

Is there any way to see who wrote what specific part? I tried doing this by looking at one page's history, but I can't find the author of the part I'm looking for. (I know this is a necro, but I can't figure out how to make a new thread.)

It's at the bottom of the forum threads listing: "create conversation".

If a particular edit has fallen off the history (you can only display the last 200 edits to a given page), then no, you can't determine who authored any particular item. But it shouldn't matter unless you need to correct the behavior of a particular editor; the point of a wiki is to be a collaborative effort and nobody owns any content once they add it.
