Needs Help: Alliterative Name

I personally agree that derivative examples, if they contain no unique information or context, don't need to be listed.

Regarding the last post on the previous page: Maybe this can be done solely on the main Alliterative Name page.

I'm fine with that.

- So, you're talking about my post, and suggesting that we update the trope's page to only allow listing Fanfic examples that are original to the Fanfic, but letting all examples on work pages, regardless of their source?

There's already a comment at the beginning of the page's code saying not to list duplicates in derivative works, and it looks like someone already took care of the fanfiction section's duplicates. Are we done, since we don't seem to be touching wicks (per what Septimus Heap said about the ATT consensus)?

Edit: Also, I posted a notice on the discussion page regarding the decision.

- So, the current message is:

How about:

Or something else that's clear about: "You can list this on Fanfics for everyone, but on this page, original characters only."

Done.

This is what I changed it to:

Don't crosswick examples from derivative works that are already listed in canon. You can list this on Fanfics for everyone, but on this page, original characters only.

It originally said this:

Avoid using examples in derivative works that are already listed in canon.

Edit: I originally copied the comment markup, but I removed that from this post because it seems to break things on the forums.

Okay, if we're done, I'll go close it.
