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
for ongoing cleanup projects.
As far as I know, the way to "contest" an example is to remove it with a note saying you don't think it applies, if someone else thinks it does please come to discussion. Then again, I don't edit much.

I don't do that much examples editing, but that's correct, from what I've heard.
Infinite Tree: an experimental story
People tend to get angry at me when I do that, but I suppose I'll try it if that's standard procedure...
It would help to link to a specific example so that we know what you are talking about.
Would it be a good idea to maybe mark an example or trope in an article as "under debate" or something if it's being contested in the discussion page? I notice that few people tend to frequent the discussion pages, and on many occasions I have to wait months before someone replies to me contesting an example. If such contested examples could be marked somehow, I think that would speed up the process and get it to work better.
(Would this even be possible?)
