You can create draft versions of creators' pages in Trope Launch Pad and ask for feedback. Or if you want to build the page gradually, you may start editing Sandbox.Giovanni Morassutti.

Hi X Fllo,

Thanks for your reply . I´ve created the Sandbox as you can see on your comment. I´ve also submitted an image. What else ? Shall I expand it? How does it work in terms of moving it to the main space ? Sorry for all these questions but I´m new to TV tropes . Thanks

You should choose just one top page quote. Two is excessive. And ideally, add some tropes related to his career to the page (though avoid troping his real life).

Hi X Fllo , I´ve gotten rid of one quote so it should be ok now . How about a trope that explains his character´s work in film Luigo ? Would that be good ?

^ Character tropes that apply to one film only are supposed to be listed on work pages.

I´ve submitted a photo and also need to index the trope but not sure if it´s good as it is. What do you mean by work pages ?

Work pages, are, well, for published works. For example, Drake & Josh (off the top of my head) is a work page.

^^ Oh no, that's not right. Character sheets can't be attached to creator pages. That Characters.Giovanni Morassutti page should be cut-listed asap. Character sheets are attached to work pages /i.e. film pages, literature pages, comic books pages etc./

You really should read Creator Page Guidelines.

You also seem confused by our terms: trope page, work page, creator page.

Thanks Tropers / War Jay 77 and X Fllo. How do you erase a trope (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/GiovanniMorassutti) ? Also do you have a suggestion for a Trope that I could create independently from a work page ? Tnx

You mean erase a page? Submit it to the cutlist (link under "tools").

For the second question, I... have no idea what you're talking about.

How to Write an Example

You should restrict your editing to Sandbox.Giovanni Morassutti for now, learning how to properly write examples and use correct English. We also have a translation project where we want to turn our English wiki into other languages, including Italian. Are you fluent in Italian?

I would keep the creator page and work on the sandbox in order to try out examples of tropes. Does it make sense ? I wanna know more about the translation project ......

lillino, the enthusiasm is appreciated, but I think it would be best for you to take a deep breath and take it slow. Read the pages that others have linked and take a few days to get into the swing of things.

Otherwise, you'll be creating other work for tropers to clean up, and we don't want that.

Okay, someone else can submit it, then.

Regarding not being able to submit to the cut list, the pages were already added by others, so you might not have been able to submit them because they were already in there.
