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

^ Minimum? Several hundred. It shouldn't be something that should be done lightly.
I believe that the more important criteria beyond count is "Are they breaking their Page?" If you see a big red phrase when editing saying "the page is too large," then it is time to cut it. Is Xigbar breaking his page? Is he not? If not, keep him on for now.
I am aware of KH 3 spoilers and it is ambiguous right now where he could be put if he had to be moved.
Can you wait a month?
Edited by DocJamoreI'm of the opinion that it's extremely annoying when character pages get split when it's not really necessary. It makes cross-wicking so much harder.
Today I wanted to add two character tropes for Characters.The Last Kingdom. It took me unnecessarily long till I found which sub-page the characters are on. And I watch the show... Sometimes people want to move or cross-wick tropes to shows they don't actually watch. :-/
I'd say around 120 tropes warrant a separate page. Or around 25k-30k symbols without spaces. While 55 tropes don't. See here
and here
for some actual statistics from 2 franchises (Star Wars and MCU).

So, Namine has her own characters subpage despite having only 55 tropes (for a character page, that's not very many). No other Kingdom Hearts character has their own page other than Sora himself (who has 230+ tropes), not even Xehanort and Xigbar. Xigbar (another franchise-important character) has like 90 tropes under his character profile and 34 more tropes under a character in Kingdom Hearts χ that is revealed in Kingdom Hearts III to also be Xigbar, leading to a total of 120+ tropes for Xigbar.
So that led me to ask some questions before trying to do anything about it.
Should Namine's character page be merged into a different subpage? Or can Xigbar have his own subpage? Is trope count alone a sufficient criterion?
(Sorry for asking this in ATT, I posted here because previously I got reported to ATT for a badly-received subpage reorganization of mine regarding Transformers, and today I got reported to the anti-complaining thread after some people did not like another of my earlier subpage reorganizations, namely regarding Dan Browned, Cowboy BeBop at His Computer, and Critical Research Failure.)
