The "works that use these plots" and crosswicking that treats this as a trope would seem like automatic cuts. No discussion needed. This is a book about writing and we trope works about writing.
See Writing Excuses for a similar page.

Literature.The Seven Basic Plots is a weird page, given that it is a work, but that it has examples of the titular plots, as though it were a trope.
It seems to be mostly used as a trope, too, on other work pages, so I'm wondering if a re-do of the page itself and a purge of it as a trope is needed.
