- moving discussion pages
- moving reviews
Please keep the following guidelines in mind:
- Check Locked Pages and Permanent Red Link Club first. They can provide guidance on what are good and bad requests.
- Include working links in your request to the page(s) in question.
- If asking for edits, state your changes exactly as they should appear on the page, including proper Example Indentation, namespacing, and pothole and quote formatting. And make sure that what you want to add is actually a valid example.
- We do not edit archived articles, even to correct links.
- If you need to have the capitalization of a page title or namespace of a work fixed, ask here
.
- If you need to remove a ghost wick, go here
.
- To request a page to be moved along with its history, go here
.
- The Complete Monster and Magnificent Bastard tropes aren't currently adding or removing examples. Wick changes and other minor corrections to the locked trope pages can be made via this thread, but more significant changes will be declined.
- Inappropriate pages that keep being recreated, pages banned under The Content Policy and subpages that are disallowed (like Headscratchers pages for tropes) are valid reasons for requesting page locks.
NOTE: Edited with OP's permission.

I expect they were nuked around the time we decided not to collect fetishes on the Tv Tropes wiki.
Added The Cameo, but I don't think Minor Injury Overreaction fits. My reading is that's literal injury, not insult.
But I was talking about the in-universe examples, as in part of the story. What we deleted was troper's fetishes.
Complaining About Shows You Dont Like has a redlink to Fan Haters that should be changed to Fan Hater.
OK nuclearneo I had another look.
Perverse Sexual Lust is: "Real Life attraction to a fictional character.' Apparently none of the in-world examples fit on this page in the first place.
Well, we let YMMV and Audience Reaction stay on the main page if it's a character within the work reacting to a Show Within the Show.
Fight smart, not fair.Example of such a case: The plot of Cool World revolves around an animator falling in love with a female character he drew.

Good point, after all Love It or Hate It is like that now.
The history shows a bunch of examples that the plot is based on like that.
Should we make a TRS thread or just YKTTW a new trope?
Edit request for the Double Standard page. Under the "either" folder there's currently:
"Bastard Boyfriend: And related tropes. Women are depicted being abused by their boyfriends to titillate the audience. Even more disturbing, this trope shows up mostly in media made by women for women and is very popular in Boys' Love Genre..."
There should be a "the" before Boys' Love Genre to make it grammatically correct.
Edit request for Double Standard under "Sexist Against Either" : Girl-Show Ghetto: Implies that shows made for girls are inferior and should only be watched by girls. This also has a little homophobia in the implication that any men who watch said shows are gay, and that is bad.
Clear titles are what we want. Not opaque initialisms. Not snowclones for the sake of it. We had a TRS thread on it. Please see Renamed Tropes first.
The Bible contains a link to The Book Of Mormon that needs the Literature namespace.
The pothole on "Done first by Shakespeare" on Chekovs Gun should be The Zeroth Law Of Trope Examples, not Older Than Steam.
