Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread
for ongoing cleanup projects.
You are allowed to use tropes listed on Definition-Only Pages as potholes, but not as actual examples. From the page itself:
So, in this case, it's okay to use Static Character as a pothole, you just can't have a Static Character entry because it's too common to be worth listing.

So, do Definition-Only Pages allow potholes. I ask because on YMMV.The Devil Wears Prada there's this Alternate Aesop Interpretation thing example:
Now the reason I am asking is that Hello 83433 removed
the Static Character pothole from the quote citing "Dewicking as Static Character is now Definition Only" and then rjd1922 added
the pothole back citing "Definition-Only Pages allow potholes". So I am kinda of confused due they allow potholes like this are not.
