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

Eh, we have Tropers.The Advertisement Server and stuff too. My only concern is it being a "troper wall", but that's because people can't just edit anyone's troper page anymore.
Well, that and it's more likely for someone to want to call themselves "System" rather than "Ad Sever"... So it could cause friction down the line.
Edited by WarJay77 Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper WallI mean, I get offering praise to the staff for their hard work and all but, is it really necessary to create a Troper Wall page for a bot that deals with page reversions just to do that? Not only do most of the staff members already have their own Troper Walls, but it's very unlikely that they'll see the praise on the system's Troper Wall out of random happenstance.
Actually, most of us don't have a troper wall (I cut mine). I only know one mod who does.
As for the System troper wall itself...I don't care that much about it (don't see why it has to be exist though) but I'd be good with it being cut.
Edited by MacronNotes Macron's notesLike I said, it'd make more sense as a joke troper page, rather than a troper wall.
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper WallThey also made TroperWall.Request (Cut List requests add an entry to Follow pages saying they were from Tropers.Request, whose own joke text was my doing; the red link is intentional). Though I'm probably the first one to show up in the history because I initially cut it (because at the time I didn't know about the Tropers.Request thing, not because of the page's contents), and then restored it (by manually copying and pasting since the page restoration tool is broken).
Considering it's not for a real user, I see it as being in the same boat as TroperWall.Request since it's clearly a joke page. I'd be more concerned if someone made a Troper Wall for a real person without their permission.
Edit: I'm tempted to make a joke page for Tropers.System to complement pages like Tropers.The Advertisement Server, Tropers.Troll Post, Tropers.The Unknown Troper, and Tropers.Request, but I'm too worn out from being sick to think of anything substantial at the moment.
Edited by GastonRabbit You can't just say "perchance".FWIW, since everyone else here is OK with the troper wall, I'd be open to Tropers.System being a thing.

TroperWall / WikiMagic Cleanup

Apparently Silver Crown created TroperWall.System (a troper wall for the mod system that reverts pages) back in December 2021 with themselves as the sole contributor.
While amusing, is this allowed, or no?
