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

I don't know if it was evaluated for worthiness to stay self-demonstrating, but he definitely has a distinct voice, no question.
Edited by DracMonsterThe SelfDemonstrating.Deadpool page can stay. The style creeping out to other pages needs to be rolled back.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanI see absolutely no reason why it is any more appropriate in this case than any other to have the self-demonstration extend beyond the self-demonstrating page. Yes, Deadpool is well-known for Breaking the Fourth Wall, but the idea that he is so uniquely well-known for it as to get a pass from how the site is normally written doesn't sit well with me.
Edited by nrjxllOut of morbid curiosity: how would one even go about fixing the Awesome/Funny/Etc. pages? Just change everything from first to third person even though making huge changes to other people's posts on audience reaction pages is kind of bad form?
Should this issue be dropped into one of the cleanup forums? Even though I'm the one who brought it up, I can't really fix it since literally all I know about Deadpool is "he has a special relationship with the fourth wall." Also, my dislike of all things self demonstrating makes me the exact opposite of unbiased.

Are the Deadpool pages supposed to be like that? I don't know enough about the character, but even I know about him and the fourth wall so I get it, I do, but should a works page and nearly all of its subpages really be all in first person? And the comic book namespace redirects to self demonstrating which just makes my teeth itch.
ETA: Can't get the link to work because I suck and am also a little pressed for time. Will fix when I get back.
