Go To

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.

I'd like that expanded to searching for entries (particularly YKTTW) by specific tropers. But being able to see just mine is a start.

Found a Youtube Channel with political stances you want to share? Hop on over to this page and add them.

You can find your YKTTW entries. In YKTTW, Click on "History." It shows you a list of your current YKTTW drafts, followed by a list of the drafts that have been launched, which is followed by a third list of YKTTW drafts that you've commented in.

I don't know about the others that you're asking about, though.

Look at all that shiny stuff ain't they pretty

There are already multiple wishlist entries for this: mine, another... Make sure to upvote them all.

Edit: Corrected first link.

I would find this really useful for Trope Finder. I've asked a bunch of queries on there that I lost track of once they fell off the front page, so I have no idea if they ever got answered.

I'm saddened to see this wasn't included in the 2018 update.

Would be great to have a section on our Profile page which lists our own Trope Finder/YKTTW/YKTS/etc entries.

^ That one actually exists under the TLP "History" tab, though currently it only shows drafts you've personally started.

This is even more of a problem since the (now old) update that moved all answers to separate pages rather than inline: Without a find-by-troper function, if you're looking for something that may be in an answer of yours, you're out of luck.
