This thread is for tropers who have trouble with English and would like some help with the crazy grammar of this crazy language.
Write down what you wish to edit on the wiki. If you have been suspended from editing, another troper might be kind enough to edit for you after your suggestions have been corrected.
The thread is for help and feedback on your own suggested edits.
If you want help correcting other people's edits (e.g., if you find a page which seems to have grammar problems but want a second opinion, or you don't feel able to fix it by yourself) then that's off-topic here, but we have a separate Grammar Police cleanup thread
that can provide assistance.

"Boris's nightmare" starts with Boris watching TV, then suddenly a limbless Caillou comes and asks Boris if he wants to dance with him. <- period Boris refuses and runs to his bedroom, but Limbless!Caillou instead wants to play hide and seek with him. Limbless!Caillou then enters Boris' bedroom and he threatens Caillou with a gun, but Limbless!Caillou then says he knows all sorts of fun games that they can play together. In the last part of the video, as he's about to comes to Boris, Boris wakes up on his sofa and it is revealed to be All Just a Dream for him. Then he's relived to find that Caillou still has limbs. However, an edited version of the video, "Go Animate/Vyond/Flash Themes Anti-Piracy", replaces the last part of the video with a black screen of a louder version of the scream from Pizza Tower (implied to be Boris') and a screen with a warning text written in red, creepy font on a black screen.

@ Gambit
- Beth and her adoptive mother bantering about what percentage of her winnings Mrs. Wheatley should get as Beth’s agent.

@ * Serge Storms:
- Handicapped Badass: Kyle Lovitt from Naked Came the Florida Man rides the wildest horses at the rodeo and faces down hate groups without showing any signs of needing the arm he lost in The War on Terror.
- The North Remembers: Davos and some Manderly soldiers run into a panicked and half-dead Sole Survivor from the Dreadfort who is about to die of exhaustion after spending several days and nights fleeing from the Others without pause. His pursuers arrive a few minutes later, and of the men who hear his last words, only one besides Davos lives long enough to be a harbinger himself upon arriving back at White Harbor with mortal wounds.
- Know When to Fold 'Em: The last of a group of pilots who try to kill Tensu for the bounty and find their ships being shot out of the void frantically speeds away while yelling into his com system that he'll stop helping the Empire if Tensu spares his life.
- Alternative Character Interpretation: Does the Grand Inquisitor spare the children of the villagers who won't betray Tensu Run as a Pet the Dog moment, Pragmatic Villainy to hopefully gain more Imperial flunkies after they go through reeducation, or simply to relish the Dark Side joy of splitting up the families and having them watch their parents die.
- Narm: The amount of dialogue that everyone from his sidekicks to the Inquisitors to random galactic citizens spend talking about how Tensu Run is the best hope for the future of the Jedi Order and peace in the Galaxy can feel a little trying even for characters who like the character, given that he has never been mentioned in any previous work and how any chance he will be the one to accomplish these things is Doomed by Canon.
@ Family Skeleton
- Affably Evil: In the first book, the killer alternates between elaborating on their cold-blooded crimes by raising points of commonality or understanding with Georgia and insisting their actions are benefitting several other people (although this could be self-deluding), while also offering to spare her life due to doubting anyone would believe her claims once the evidence is destroyed (whether that was a lie to calm her down is unclear). He's also the only academic at the funeral where he first appears not to refuse to even make small talk with Georgia upon hearing that she's an adjunct.
- In A Skeleton in the Family, the killer appears in only one scene before the reveal, as an attendee at the funeral of his second victim, and is only mentioned by name once between those scenes.
- Salvaged Story: Tyrant's Fist manages to improve upon the limited opportunities for character exploration or long fight sequences present in the previous stories (most notably The Hidden Blade) to various extents by being the first two-part story.
- What Happened to the Mouse?: Her zombie isn't put down with Cairax and Midknight and has been MIA since the first book.
- In Ex-Purgatory, little is revealed about what life is like for Danielle and how she perceives the other world beyond her still being the Cerberus creator and having had some dreams that make her question things. She only shows up in the same chapter she accepts the truth in, and only from Freedom's P.O.V.

For YMMV.Descendants The Rise Of Red:

Any corrections?
Fan-Preferred Couple cleanup threadVideo Game / Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO
- Breaking Old Trends:
- This is the first entry in the series where the anime's soundtrack will be available in the West, when past games replaced the music with original tracks (albeit via a DLC pack). The opening movie, which in previous games replaced it's vocal tracks with instrumentals or a completely different song, uses "Genkai Toppa X Survivor" from the Super anime across all regions. Though, Sparking! ZERO also has an alternative theme song replacing the song from the anime should players disable anime BGM in the settings.
Edit Notes: I think the opening theme for Sparking! ZERO can be changed whenever we set "Enable Anime BGM" on or not
In General
- Wake-Up Call Boss: The original trio of Admirals from the pre-time skip era each teaches Luffy an excruciating lesson, showing him just how outmatched he is compared to the true heavyweights of the One Piece world, each in their own unique and lethal way. The message is made crystal clear when Luffy stands before them at Marineford.
Admiral Akainu: If nothing else, I praise your tenacity.
Admiral Aokiji: But you're not ready for this stage yet.
Admiral Kizaru: There's no way you can beat us, you know?

- Late Pregnancy Realization: Downplayed as in Chapter 98, Kyouko discusses her weight gain with her mother-in-law over the phone, despite her efforts to diet and exercise. Her mother-in-law suggests that she might be pregnant, which pleasantly surprises Kyouko. In Chapter 101, Kyouko confirmed her pregnancy at five weeks, and both she and her husband are over the moon with joy.
Thanks, Arivne.
- Release Date Change: The game was intended to be released on November 12, 2024 (after having been previously delayed from its original fall 2023 date). However, the game would be delayed to December 3rd, 2024 after several of the game's devs were impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

: General Grievous joins Poggle the Lesser and San Hill in alliance to secretly construct the Death Star in order do defeat Republic and overthrow Count Dooku. He fakes loyalty to Dooku and leads Separatist droid army to wage Clone Wars, burning down planets that refuse to submit while secretly conducting raids to steal Kyber crystals necessary to power planet destroying superlaser. Once Death Star is completed, Grievous, Poggle and Hill lure Padme Amidala to it and capture her. Grievous commands Death Star to destroy Naboo when Palpatine is about to give speech there, killing Chancellor and most of Jedi council as well as Dooku, forcing Padme to watch and planning to force her to sign the treaty of surrender. After Republic spends weeks refusing to surrender, Grievous takes the Death Star to blow up Coruscant and cement his control over the galaxy.

Downplayed as in Chapter 98. <- period Over the phone, Kyouko discusses with her mother-in-law her weight gain despite her efforts to diet and exercise.

@ Wasted Ex Heroes
- On the way back home in Ex-Patriots, the protagonists pick up fifteen people still surviving in Palm Springs after two years, but this takes place offscreen, and those survivors are never brought up again despite being the first decent-sized group in the series to survive so long without a single superhuman protector.
- Inverted in Ex-Heroes: Ex-Patriots, as it is safe and easy for the heroes of Los Angeles to fly out to the Project Krypton military base (where a lot of chaos ends up going down) once the two groups of survivors make contact. The return trip to Los Angeles takes significantly longer due to being a land-based journey evacuating everyone left at the installation (around 100 people). While the trip is skipped over and mentioned in the epilogue, eight more soldiers died, and several isolated civilians were rescued as the convoy headed to L.A.
- There may be some tension in the working relationship between Danielle and Gibbs, but, in Ex-Purgatory, he is one of the first people she mentions in relief upon realizing that all the people she thought had died in the fall of the Mount are okay and it was just an illusion.
@ YMMV Ex heroes
- Common Knowledge: While most fans believe that Agent Smith survives the last act of Ex-Patriots and is biding his time at Groom Lake, it is never actually confirmed in the text and there are even factors to support the opposite. There is no way to know if he would been able to stabilize his neck wound for the whole trip, especially since his pilot worried about whether they had even enough fuel for the journey. Plus, if he did get there, the possible loss of his Charm Person powers could mean he ended up dead or a prisoner anyway rather than a vengeance-seeking dictator of the base. Even his mental doppelgänger admits to ignorance about his fate.
- At the end of Ex-Patriots, Agent Smith is on his way to Groom Lake/Area 51 in a helicopter with a lone super soldier and the pilot. The kinds of survivors that might be at that base and what they could and would do in this setting have a lot of potential to either make Smith a big new threat again or be new supporting heroes and turn the tables on Smith if the damage to his vocal cords (likely affecting his Charm Person powers) and his Unbreakable bodyguard having powers only for a limited time, per the fifth book, leave him at a disadvantage if/when he gets there. However, Smith remains MIA for the rest of the series, and Groom Lake is never seen in person.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here!: After Mrs. Gorf starts turning students into apples, Mauricea makes an unsuccessful beeline for the front door.
- Ewoks 2024: General Koyotta is cowardly and entitled in his dealings with his bounty hunter escorts and, back when he had actual Imperial troops under his command, he sees nothing wrong with all of them dying to conserve air for him as the highest ranking officer present (whether they did so voluntarily or not is something that no one has anything but his word for).
- Some of the author's notes or comments at the end of chapters (on Fanfiction.Net) or in response to reviews on Archive of Our Own or Sufficient Velocity are witty.
- They hint at some Red Oni, Blue Oni between King Aerys' two most competent original "lickspittles" by noting "Chelsted recommended stopping the tourney at Harrenhal, Staunton proposed banning all tourneys, period."
- This review and response.
Reviewer: If pure stupid willpower and the stubborn refusal to learn how to quit ever counted for anything, the Brackens would have taken their royal crown back half a dozen times over.
Author: They did.
They just lost it seven times.- Their comment about Tywin's Self-Serving Memory about his first clash with the Reynes.
"Tywin, in his own account, which he has more or less bludgeoned his siblings into following along with by now, has to have been perfectly right at every point in the return to greatness. Never mind his first move against the Reynes and Tarbecks ultimately turned into a debacle where he got bailed out by his father getting involved and getting everyone to agree to a reset. No, no, everything was going according to plan—ignore his cousin/brother-in-law being held captive—and Tytos spoiled it all with his usual softness."- When someone comments on the apparent Odd Friendship between Garth and Oberyn, the author replies, "One's the bisexual younger son who studied at the Citadel and the East, becoming a master poisoner and his family's secret deniable asset. The other is... ummm.... the same, but with a different style."
- Euron gets a loving shout-out when the author comments on how his brother Victorian is taking dealing with the terrifying Mudds in stride.
- In at least one review reply after confirming Aesynth is a Wednesday Addams Expy, they refer to her by having a struck-through Wednesday ahead of her name as if they put it down by mistake and had to delete it.
- Drogo's Hidden Depths are explored with the comment, "Realize, Drogo is actually remarkably well-informed about things in Westeros for a Dothraki, the result of an interest in it. For most Dothraki it's 'that... place. In the west. over the poison water.'"'' They then compare Drogo to someone who keeps rattling off Little Known Facts about a foreign culture to people who rarely care.
- When one fan praises the Gaunts' wisdom for leaving their original home because it was a Haunted Castle, the author says, "Note that it took them millennia to do this."
- When discussing the appearance of a character who is obviously the High Sparrow, they say in parenthesis, "Gosh, wonder who he could be."
- Broken Base: Googling various word combinations about whether Chester or Festus was the better sidekick can produce interesting results.
- Ensemble Dark Horse: Has it’s own page.
@ Gunsmoke (1955) As one of the first and most-long running classic Western shows, Gunsmoke has no shortage of guest stars who made an imapct on the fandom.
- Quint's Silk Hiding Steel star-crossed lover Susan Degler from "Crooked Mile" has plenty of fans who feel that episode made a perfect finale to Quint's arc (whether it kept its ending or had gone with a different one) and that his remaining appearances felt superfluous after that.
- Luke Frazier, the eponymous character from "The Bounty Hunter," is praised as one of the most sympathetic members of his profession from that era of television.
- Defrosting the Ice Queen Sarah Drew from "Long, Long Trail" probably gets shipped with Matt more than anyone who isn't Miss Kitty.
- Retired Gunfighter Scott Coltrane from "The Widow-Maker" and his The Perils of Being the Best arc make a notable impact.
- Parents as People Major Creed sets up one of the most memorable ending scenes in the series in "With a Smile."
- Will Mannon from the eponymous episode is hard to forget due to his chilling performance and the memorable quote about how fast of a draw he has.
- Creepy Avenging the Villain Etta Stone from "The Jailer" played by Bette Davis, may be the most infamous villain of the show.
- Beware the Nice Ones Pezzy from "Tail to the Wind" and his The Dog Bites Back moments provide for perhaps the most famous violent resolution to an episode that doesn't involve gunplay.
- Sad introvert Caleb from the eponymous episode is often considered the best character John Dehner ever played.
- Breaking the Glass Ceiling Frontier Doctor Sam McTavish from the eponymous episode charms fans immensely and gives Doc some of his best-remembered moments during their interactions.
- Go Mad from the Isolation Prospector Ben Snow from the "Island in the Desert" two-parter is a nuanced, entertaining, and terrifying mix of a character who helps make that episode probably the best of the two-parters.
- Cheery hillbilly girl Clarey Cotter from "Cotter's Girl" does well as the focus of one of the better-liked Breather Episodes.
- Paco, a young boy who has never seen a lawman before from "Zavala," may be the most famous kid guest star in the show.
- Fake Ultimate Hero turned Cowardly Lion Dan Collins from "Chicken" has an arc that tends to get talked about.
- Joe Bascome and Ching Lee from "Gunfighter, R.I.P." put on powerful and often-discussed performances in the only white-Chinese interracial relationship of the point that the ending was supposed changed as the crew and writers watched their performances.
- Dudley the handyman is a minor character in his one appearance but is praised for his epic yet comedic The Dog Bites Back moment in "Susan was Evil."
@ $
- While planning his bank robbery and ingratiating himself to the bank manager, Joe proposes a toast to bank robbers in front to the manager, covering this up by adding that, otherwise, no one would pay them to keep money safe in banks.
- The bank robbery scene where Joe robs the criminals’ safety deposit boxes while dozens of people are outside the vault thinking he is inside preventing a robbery. He even has one of the crooks he robbed praise him for his supposed heroism during their first encounter.
- The entire final act is one long, gripping chase sequence as Joe and Dawn separately flee from their pursuers on foot, car, or by train, dodging attacks, tricking their enemies into pursuing false trails, throwing things at them, and such, with Joe ending up fleeing through snow banks and across a frozen lake while being chased by a car.
- The ending reveals that Dawn took the money with her, not to rob Joe, but because she knew their pursuers thinking he had the money would make them focus less on her as she fled and that their victims would be forced to keep Joe alive to find the money once they realized it was gone if they did catch him.
- Joe may be using Mr. Kessel, but their friendship has some good moments, especially when Kessel orders rescue crews to break through the wall of his bank vault to supposedly keep Joe from dying from lack of air during the robbery.
- In the middle of her desperate flight from the Major, Dawn bumps into a blind man on the stairs and pauses to help him retrieve his cane before continuing running.
- Ensemble Dark Horse
- Joy can be a sneak and often appears as a supporting character rather than the lead of a story, but she is one of the most popular students with fans.
- Mischievous but ultimately good psychologist Dr. Pickell and occasionally heroic Cordon Bleugh Chef Miss Mush have large fandoms despite their sporadic appearances.
- Ancestral Weapon: Hector's family has an old cavalry saber that was used in many battles, although his grandfather refused to ever let Hector take it due to suspecting he'd just pawn it.
- Cool Sword: Exploited by Danny Foe, who carries around a samurai sword he found on a movie set during his missions but never actually uses it and, according to Stealth, just wants to look cool to impress his teammate Lynne Vines.
- Nero Wolfe 2012: The murder victim in "To Check the King" is a renowned young Russian chess player who had his defection arranged and sponsored by an Italian businessman, who then fell out with him when he wanted to marry the man's daughter.
- They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: Johnny's widow could have helped humanize him after his death and/or had some interesting scenes with her in-laws, but is barely mentioned after their wedding.
- Broken Aesop: In the prequel short story, "Traitor," a conspiracy targeting aging Bunny-Ears Lawyer Gustav Anderman places a lot of emphasis on his refusal to take cognitive tests to prove his ability to lead after displaying possibly delusional behavior (with it being implied this is merely a pretext for some of the more ambitious or disgruntled plotters), which seems to contain some commentary on the way American politicians have seized on similar accusations for partisan politics. Setting aside the opposing viewpoints on that issue in the real world, the fact that Gustav Anderman is a benign dictator who intends to rule for life and pass the throne to his son (with delusions being a mental disorder more likely than some to pass down through generations) make the debate about whether Gustav is right to refuse to prove his fitness a very different situation than in a democracy with regular elections where the people can express their opinion on the matter, there are checks and balances on the actions of elected leaders, and succession is non-hereditary.
