As your friendly neighborhood Admin Team, the gang here at TVTropes HQ is always working to improve the site. Many of those improvements begin with suggestions posted right here, on the Community Wishlist. Is there a feature you really want on TVTropes? Post it. Is there something we could be doing better? We want to know. Do you think we look fat in these pants? We were totally afraid of that. See a bug? Report it.

Important things to know:

  • We're all about that content-creation life! The top contenders for our attention are ideas that'll create more content, like the video uploading feature, or speed up launching new pages. On the flip side, design or layout tweaks won't be our top priority.
  • Help us dig through the goldmine of old wishlist items! If you have an old request gathering dust or spot one you're totally on board with, give it a bump and a like. There's a treasure trove of 6+ years' worth of ideas just waiting to be rediscovered. Items without enough love may not make the cut and will be closed.
  • Was your wishlist item locked up without an explanation? It was most likely disapproved or just too big of a task versus the benefit it would ultimately have. Time is precious, and we want to focus on updates with the biggest bang for the buck. Don't be discouraged though! We appreciate every idea and we're always listening.

Either a video example "belongs" to whoever uploaded it, in which case we need to know who that person is, so we can contact them if there are problems

or it "belongs" to the wiki at large, in which case editing rights shouldn't be restricted to whoever uploaded it.

What we have right now is a weird mix of the worst of both approaches.

Suddenly I'm... still rotating Fallen London in my mind even though I've stopped actively playing it.

Either way we should be allowed to edit to some extent and still notify the uploader of the change to their viv example.

Spoke with the other moderators, and unfortunately we have to reject this one due to concerns that it'll be abused by those with malicious intent.
