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.
Depending on the Writer is a blanket term for anything that is subject to change under a writer's preferences, not just characters' personalities and motivations. That wouldn't look good on a character page.
So it would be a better idea to just point out on the example page then?
You could mention Depending on the Writer in the example text of Fire-Forged Friends, but any Depending on the Writer examples should be on the main page.

Main page, as in the show's main page or the main page of Depending on the Writer?
But thank you for the clear up, I was unsure because I've seen Depending on the Writer on characters pages before. Like Kevin from Ed Edd 'n Eddy has it listed on his character sheet.
I meant the work's main page, and Cross Wicking says you should copy any example of a work (or work subpages, like Characters) to the trope page as well.

Okay, I think I get what you mean. Thank you for the help!
A while back, I put Fire-Forged Friends and True Companions to describe the monks from Xiaolin Showdown/Chronicles. However, taking another look at the series and seeing what other people had to say, their relationship seems to lean more to Depending on the Writer but is that allowed in character pages? If not, then is it appropriate to list them on the trope's example page?
