What is the best article you have created/launched?

I suppose this belongs here?

So, for me my magnum opus article is Meaningful Appearance as it helped alleviate a lot of issues regarding appearance tropes. Solar-Powered Magnifying Glass also holds a special place in my heart for being my first ever trope and article. Boyish Short Hair is my first article to hit over 1000+ (or more than 500 even) wicks at 1689 so I am proud of that one as well.

As for for works, my best article would be If Her Flag Breaks. It's the most fleshed out one at least. Most of my work pages only have me editing them because they are so obscure so they don't see that much growth usually.

Well, the one I'm most proud of is Revealing Continuity Lapse. It's a trope that genuinely fascinates me and I'm still super happy I launched it, even if it's growing at a slow pace. My first ever was Trophy Child and it holds a special place in my heart for that reason. As for ones that'd be objectively "best" though, well, Bully Turned Buddy and Hates Their Parent by far have the most wicks and growth.

For work articles...that's a bit tougher. I'd say The Hare and the Pineapple is the one that really took off after I created it, but I've been updating Dad as much as possible and I think it's in really good shape...at least, for now. Still hunting for tropes.

I'm quite proud of splitting Full Motion Video into Interactive Movie, Live-Action Cutscene, and Pre-Rendered Graphics.

We went from one horribly unfocused "trope", to two cleanly-defined actual tropes and a genre.

For sheer popularity, I proposed Fridge Brilliance before it and Fridge Logic got isolated to its own Fridge namespaces.

Personally, I'm rather proud of "World of Cardboard" Speech and Command Roster.

Is this the correct board for another bragging thread?

Why not share your achievements with other forum members?

Wouldn't call it bragging so much as us just sharing our accomplishments and our contributions.

Nighttime Transformation. If only because it's a very basic trope and yet the site seemingly did without it for over 20 years. Not necessarily proud of it, because it was just so necessary, but I'm not sure how long it would have taken for someone else to launch it.

I think maybe it was that people just assumed it did exist, somewhere. That's what I did.

I think mine would be Analysis.Getting Crap Past The Radar, which I hold in my heart as a significant contribution to its TRS thread. For tropes, Studiopolis. It seems to have gathered interest in creating and maintaining Video Game Settings.

I really like the page I made for Total Trauma, mostly because while it's a fairly obscure comic, it's the largest work page I've built from scratch.

As for tropes I've launched, I really liked working on Infection Scene and I think it shows. I think Swear Word Plot is more popular though, which was really unexpected.

I've made so many work pages that I don't know which is my favorite, but I suppose my most widely-used trope baby is Adapted Out. Conceptually my favorite is Playing Card Motifs. Cleanup wise I am also lowkey proud of the Wedding Day fix I spearheaded and the two tropes that came of it.

I think Mouthy Bird has the most wicks so far. Someone posted on the discussion page of Studiopolis, and another troper added a rather interesting ZCE to Stereotypical South Asian English (I admit it, I stealth-launched that one with a net 3 hats).

• Dr. Crapindra Poomoji from the "Medimoji" series by ZDoggMD has this accent. He is a caricature of the other Dr. Damania, ZDoggMD's father.

I think Trope Talk really isn't the correct subforum. Perhaps Wiki Talks would fit better?

Well we have the "What was you most recent launch" thread here so I thought this would fit? I think it fits better on Trope Talk than Wiki which is more for actual wiki concerns but I guess I could be wrong.

It ain't much, but I did create the Mother Goddess trope, which got a fair amount of examples, though I don't know how many wicks.

I'm proud of Scary Stitches and probably too proud of the Pumpkin Person trope bearing the name I proposed in a separate draft, although I did little, if anything, on the draft that got merged to my name. I take pride in helping the spooky representation on this site, since that's my favorite category of media.

I'm also pretty proud of the work I did to divide Junji Ito's page into their own works pages so only the miscellaneous stuff would be on his creator page.

On the trope front, Level Scaling definitely (check those inbound numbers)

On the index front, Loyalty Tropes, which I was shocked didn't exist when I proposed it, because it seemed like such a core concept/ index idea

So far my first trope launch, Mini-Dungeon, continues being my favorite. Nostalgia plays a mild factor, but it's mostly because I was surprised that this important form of video game level was missing in TV Tropes, so I was happy to contribute with its launch.

In terms of numerical performance, I believe my best achievements are the LOL, 69 trope and the Advertising.Big Bill Hells page. Call me immature if you have to. Just the best would be too subjective.

Just launched my first work page, The Intertidal Zone a few days ago. It's doubled in wicks and has 2 inbounds.
