Trope Report Revival

Go To

So over 10 years ago or so, we used to have a newsletter called Trope Report, which covers all of the changes that happened on the wiki weekly. I have been nostalgic for it recently so I thought of it and it seemed to be a fun way to inform tropers about the changes going on around the wiki.

The sandbox for the project can be found at Sandbox.Trope Report Dummy Edition and the sandbox for ideas/plans can be found on Sandbox.Trope Report Ideas. After a new issue is published, revert the Dummy Edition back to a template using the text on Sandbox.Trope Report Template.

Hm, can I get a second opinion on this bit?

Seems like the site has attracted some attention from the media since our last issue, too. Comic Book Resources published an article explaining a Simpsons theory from our WMG tab on the show, and the YouTube channel Drawfee made an awesome video where they turn random tropes into original characters. Very exciting news!

I'd like to apologize for all this.

The first sentence is awkward, but the rest flows well.

We have a few more recent notches for our Referenced by... subpage since last month.

Link to TRS threads in project mode here.

TIL that ReferencedBy.TV Tropes exists.

Seems that the site has recently attracted some media attention, too.

[up] Better. The last sentence is what I'm most unsure on. I now changed it to...

Very encouraging to see the site being discussed like this!

"Very exciting news!"? Not seeing any issue there.

think the new rule regarding kink/fetish talk on troper pages warrants a mention now that it's official, or should it wait for next month?

[up] I'd say next month. We're in the final final stages now.

Though I'd ask ~FernandoLemon first what he thinks.

[up] If it's just in the opening paragraph, it should be fine. That being said, I've no idea what you guys are talking about; can I get a link?

I'd like to apologize for all this.

...yeah, maybe next issue.

Also, I never got how people rock their socks off in this site in particular. What's there to "enjoy"?

I'd like to apologize for all this.

If Rule 34 is any indication, then people can find... "enjoyment" in just about anything. But yes, it's better to mention that new rule next issue.

THE GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN!

Thanks for correcting me Twiddler. Didn't really know the exact reasons for the Light Novel deprecation as I didn't follow that discussion as intently.

Alright, all done. Also, I had a chuckle at plaky's bio.

Oh wait, you left in the "this is a drafting area" text at the top.

EDIT: Fixed, thanks crazysamaritan.

~ Boys and girls of every age, wouldn't you like to see something strange? ~

Hooray, I think our Halloween issue is the most fun. Remember to change your bios and get into the spooky mood, everyone. cool

I think I had a non-spooky idea but it's gone from my brain now. If only I'd used that sandbox. [lol]
