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.
Sounds about right (Should be Bill Watterson (Cartoonist), etc.). Initials, country of citizenship, and year of birth are probably other alternatives we can try in similar situations.
Link to TRS threads in project mode here.Disambiguation by occupation seems to be the default for creators, like with David Lodge Actor and David Lodge (Writer).
I recently made a page for the movie Dave Made a Maze. I was going to make a Red Link for the director's name, until I realized he has the same name as the creator of Calvin and Hobbes.
Since the director doesn't have his own page yet, I just left the link out, but what would happen if someone did make a page for him? Would we have to move Bill Watterson to Bill Watterson (cartoonist) and name the director's page Bill Watterson (director)?
