Surely the different namespaces are enough? And when it comes to the Trivia page and the other subpages, as far as I can tell all of them are for the webcomic. Once anyone adds tropes for the novel, they can just add a headline that's a sort of border between the two.

Well, a lot of works have multiple namespaces for various adaptations, so on the surface it looks like that until you start reading because they are attached to each other now. I don’t think adding a line to separate a shared page is a great idea; lots of times this happens with movies or something the names get changed to add a year in or something, they don’t just…share.

Plenty of works and tropes share subpages, and it is called a soft-split. We have a dedicated thread and exactly when it is necessary to move articles is contentious.
