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.
The wiki engine sucks, so you're kinda screwed.
If you need it, you'll have to contact a moderator that you'll be registering a new account as Tropers/EnPassant so they'll checkmark the account activity and you'll be able to use page decorators to display it as en_passant.
(Looks like En Passant is already taken but inactive, so it'll have to be negotiated if it'd be even possible.)
Edited by Amonimus TroperWall / WikiMagic CleanupIt means the moderator makes an internal note to associate all your website activity with the new account when you make it. It can't be technically carried over. It will also let them block the old account and to not block the new one for possible meatpuppeting.
TroperWall / WikiMagic CleanupYour edit history can't be carried over.
Also, before you make your new name without a hyphen, make sure to delete your current count beforehand.
Macron's notesWhat about the existing En Passant account? I want to make sure it's available before I nuke my current one; I'd test it by creating the account and seeing if I get an error, but then I wouldn't be doing what you just said to do.
I don't think taking that account is possible, at least, not without it being bounced or something (I know people have "rescued" old accounts before, but surely there's some extra hurdles besides just claiming someone else's name)
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper Wall

I'm trying to make a Troper page for myself, but because my name has an _ in it, the wiki shows an error message and doesn't have the Edit Page button. Since the name of the Troper page is what ties it to the edit history and PM buttons, I can't do a version without the _ or with a space because it won't link to me.
What are my options?
