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 method apparently doesn't work for everyone, but I usually create a commented-out wick and then delete it (i.e. adding %% * ZeroContextExample , and then removing it)
They're still "wicked", so I think that didn't work. Maybe if I requested a cut and recreate it after the cut is processed, as if it were a page in a miscapitalized namespace?
Wicks only update if there's at least one wick on the page.
Maybe link back to the work page, or wick something that's in an entry.

^ I didn't know. It worked: adding Selfless Wish to Behind the Waterfall (so it how has a wick) removed it from Related for Ear Worm. I guess nombretomado meant adding a commented-out wick that had nothing to do with the problem wick. Cool, I'll remember it for future ghost wicks.
I took out the Ear Worm link from Awesome.Still Crazy and Heartwarming.Behind The Waterfall, but the pages are still on the Related page for Ear Worm
, so I assume it's a ghost wick or something similar. Usually, I'd request recreate-and-cut on the locked pages thread to get rid of nonexistent wicks, but these pages don't need to be recreated.
