  1. While it'd be more complicated if both links worked, since they don't, Literature.Realm Mesh Reality would have to be remade anyway and the former either cut or redirected. You just click there or change URL and edit the page as usual.
    1. If the wiki version is still public somewhere, both pages can stay.
  2. Feel free to mention any information relevant to publication in the description.
  3. Only mention information that is publically verifiable, meaning anyone can proof-check with the book if they bought it. This also includes the mentions of a previous iteration, you could say these are What Could Have Been, if there's similarly some sort of official primary source like author's blog.

As far as namespacing, I'm unfamiliar with the work, so was the original version a Website or a Web Serial Novel or what?

^ It says "a wiki" in the first sentence.

Re StarSword: Everyone is right, it was a website hosting a wiki that hosted multiple WebSerialNovels. These and various short stories are the source of most of the page's tropes.

Re Amonimus:

  1. Remaking it should be pretty easy, mostly just cutting old stuff.
  2. Sure thing.
  3. There isn't really new publicly verifiable canon yet, so I won't add any information on it at the Literature page. Thanks for catching that!
As a note on several comments above, the wiki is available at the Wayback Machine. The contents of the wiki over all time (every version of every page, I think) can be found here. Does that count?

So, seeing no reply was had

To what the old man said,

I cried, "Come, tell me how you live!"

And thumped him on the head.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/thumbs_up_emote.png Don't forget to index it. Looks like Literature of the 2020s would be a good one to start.

Cool, thanks for the heads-up! Posted it there and at Troper Works.

Just noticed the title is listed as RMR: The Realm-Mesh Reality. In that case, it seems like the page should be at Literature.RMR The Realm Mesh Reality

Good point. I wondered about that. Makes sense to move it; only put it where it is for a reason that I realize now doesn't make sense. How do we move it there?

After falling off TV Tropes for another 2 months, I just moved the page to [1]. Thanks for the help!
