Discuss TV Tropes itself, such as observations you've made about the site/forum/wiki.
NOTE: Keep it civil; try not to get into any Flame Bait-y territory, per the forum rules
(in particular, drama importation and popcorn posting are not allowed, and this thread is for discussion about the site and not the users). In addition, while discussing the Edit Banned thread is not prohibited on its own, discussing and/or alluding to specific ban/suspension cases is not permitted.
One thing I've noticed is that for all how the page for They Might Be Giants claims them to be the unofficial official band of this wiki, there's relatively few people on this site who seem to ever reference them.

I remembered when NightmareFuel.Western Animation had an example presenting this short
as Nightmare Fuel because, according to the original editor, dogs foaming at their mouths are inherentely scary.

Someone added a spoiler-tagged entry to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet even though they only came out a few hours ago in the eastern hemisphere. That was quick.

My musician pageOn the matter of surprise shows which don't see much discussion here, CoComelon seems to be everywhere, yet it was only this year that it even got a page.
I only heard of Cocomelon because Kiryu Coco's modified nursery song
was tagged by Youtube as a children's song for a while, and it was thought the two might have been confused.
I'm kind of impressed that it's not a huge complaint magnet.
Your melody still remains in this room and it ringsKid's works on this wiki are hit or miss. Either they're made by a troper who's lowkey obsessed with that show and thus they get fleshed out and pimped like mad... or the entire troper base ignores them.

...should I be concerned that what is ostensibly an Edutainment Show aimed at preschoolers has a Ho Yay subpage that's done entirely by one person who's the sole maintainer of every other page for the show?
See two posts above.

Best advice I ever got? Keep repeating the joke till everyone is forced to laugh.
That name would violate No New Stock Phrases. (The old name predates that policy; renaming it would mean changing it to something that isn't a line of dialogue because new titles can't be named that way.)

I got a rock for Halloween.Hey, I wasn't trying to specifically pick on RJG this time, it's happened with other kid's works before too, that one is just the most infamous
Worst on ZCE work pages are works that are old and nobody cares about, like 00's cartoons.
TroperWall / WikiMagic CleanupWe Named the Monkey "Jack" might need to go through TRS, since the description admits it's two tropes in one.
Re: RJG: I'm pretty sure the troper who wrote most of the RJG content on this wiki (including the infamous Nightmare Fuel page) deleted their account recently.

Works That Require Cleanup of Complaining | Troper WallObservation: People don't notice Aliens of London if the alien in question has a Received Pronunciation or generic non-regionally-specific American accent. Anything other than that is weird and needs to be commented on. Same goes for The Queen's Latin.

What separates that trope from Aliens Speaking English, whose description doesn't even reference it? I could understand if the trope were restricted to the use of accents that are considered "non-regional" in the countries that made the works (Received Pronunciation for British works, General American for American works, etc.), but it seems like any accent can apply, which is why I don't see why it's separate.

I got a rock for Halloween.

I just remembered this one.
I remember that The Complainer Is Always Wrong once had a page image, and it was of a guy looking a bit dramatic.
Come on! Let's bless them all until we get fershnickered!
