As your friendly neighborhood Admin Team, the gang here at TVTropes HQ is always working to improve the site. Many of those improvements begin with suggestions posted right here, on the Community Wishlist. Is there a feature you really want on TVTropes? Post it. Is there something we could be doing better? We want to know. Do you think we look fat in these pants? We were totally afraid of that. See a bug? Report it.

Important things to know:

  • We're all about that content-creation life! The top contenders for our attention are ideas that'll create more content, like the video uploading feature, or speed up launching new pages. On the flip side, design or layout tweaks won't be our top priority.
  • Help us dig through the goldmine of old wishlist items! If you have an old request gathering dust or spot one you're totally on board with, give it a bump and a like. There's a treasure trove of 6+ years' worth of ideas just waiting to be rediscovered. Items without enough love may not make the cut and will be closed.
  • Was your wishlist item locked up without an explanation? It was most likely disapproved or just too big of a task versus the benefit it would ultimately have. Time is precious, and we want to focus on updates with the biggest bang for the buck. Don't be discouraged though! We appreciate every idea and we're always listening.

alphabetized where? If it's at examples, that requires automated page sorting first.

An example would be like the Related pages where you can see where the trope is used such as this one from the Does Not Like Magic:

  • Characters/The Assassination Of Twilight Sparkle
  • Characters/The Bridge Enemy Kaiju
  • Characters/The Bridge Humanitys Stand
  • Characters/The Bridge Terran Defenders
  • Characters/The Bridge Terran Universe
  • Characters/The Dresden Files The Vampires
  • Characters/The Elder Scrolls The Races Of Men
  • Characters/The Elder Scrolls The Races Of Mer
  • Characters/The Familiar Of Zero
  • Characters/The Fan
  • Characters/The Grails Dark Knight
  • Characters/The Lamplighters League
  • Characters/The Last Hour Of Osleron The Orcs
  • Characters/The Magical Revolution Of The Reincarnated Princess
  • Characters/The Order Of The Stick Divine Beings
  • Characters/The Other Kingdom Main
  • Characters/The Owl House Emperor Belos
  • Characters/The Proud Family Proud Family
  • Characters/The Return To Gravity Falls
  • Characters/The Roboutian Heresy Forces Of Chaos
  • Characters/The Roboutian Heresy Imperium Of Man
  • Characters/The Roboutian Heresy Legiones Astartes
  • Characters/The Secrets Of The Immortal Nicholas Flamel
  • Characters/The Unexplored Summon Blood Sign

That's where I got the idea for this wish. I was thinking the automated page sorting could be changed so that it might be easier to find pages for media. It's used in most libraries and I thought it could help here, too.

Disregarding "A ", "An " and "The " in Related tab could be helpful and is commonly used elsewhere. Depending on how the filter is done, it's probably not difficult.

Of course! I should've remembered 'A' and 'An', too! Those two words should be included into the filter as well. Thank you for reading about my wish.
