Your mama may have had eyes in the back of her head, but our admin team just can't see everything at once. It takes a village to make sure TVTropes is running the way it should, so when it comes to spotting tech snafus, dreaming up a better digital mousetrap, or just diagnosing plain old asshattery, the quicker you let us know something's up, the quicker we can address it. See a bug? Point to it and we'll squash it. Have idea for a new feature? Post in the Tech Wishlist.
NOTE: Do not post duplicate bug queries, please check existing queries to see if your issue has already been reported and then comment on it.
Wow didn't realize there were so many pages for TLP and ya it looks like the last 30 pages or so are completely empty, strange.
I also recall seeing either a wishlist request or a bug pertaining to the search functionality being poor on the TLP. Is the search pretty much useless for looking up old ones? If the search functionality was improved do you think it would help launch more pages?
Now monitoring Wishlist and Bugs
I do think it looking up words everywhere is a problem and that it could probably be easier to find new pages if it were improved... I'd support an option to strictly look through titles, and maybe one for laconics as well.

Now there are 351 pages, many of which are still empty... Is this some kind of self-correcting thing?

That could just be from tropes being launched?

Late but the empty pages are the spaces left behind from discarded and launched tropes. We have a project for cleaning out abandoned drafts that are unsalvageable and I remember pages being empty when a page got cleared.
Macron's notes
OK, good to know (aware of that project). Still, it has definitely never happened before...

For a long time, Trope Launch Pad has had 352 pages, but a large amount of the ones at the end don't have 20 drafts or are empty. See https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/tlp_activity.php?filter=all&sort=latest&q=&page=347
for example. I think this should be updated properly like in the past again. Thanks in advance.
