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.

This doesn't need to be private.

Tips For Editing and Text Formatting Rules might be places to start.

Keep in mind, new accounts can't do certain things for varying periods of time. Thank trolls, vandals, and spambots.

The best way to add a new trope is to go to the TLP (Trope Launch Pad) and click on the "Create a new TLP" button (of course "TLP" should be "Trope").

The tropers on the TLP can give good advice on improving your proposal (including its name), provide examples, and so on.

There's more information on YKTTW Guidelines and A Guide to Easy Launching of Your YKTTW (YKTTW is the old name for the TLP).

(Headdesk) my apologies. I thought that meant 'add a trope example to a page'. >.<

No apology necessary. :) The question is ambiguous, and it's entirely possible that your answer is correct and I am wrong.

In either case the question is answered, so it's all good.
