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.
It's OK to suggest images on other threads (the current image on Bury Your Gays was chosen by the TRS thread, when it was imageless at the time), but replacing images should go through Image Pickin'. I don't see anything wrong with bringing up a bad image outside of Image Pickin'.
Keet cleanupIf multiple pics are being considered for a particular page, or if there's one pic being considered but there's not really consensus about how good it is, it's best to start an IP thread. If just one is being considered and there's general consensus that it's good, I don't have much of an issue with it being added to the page outside of IP.

So I don't contribute on the Complete Monster or Magnificent Bastard threads, but I do lurk on them from time to time out of curiosity. And I've noticed a lot of times where the Complete Monster thread will start...discussing page images amongst themselves, and then adding the ones they like. This means they're effectively skipping the Image Pickin' process and doing it on their own, and right now they're apparently discussing changing an image
that was already kept by an IP thread.
I don't want to say anything on the thread itself, like I said, I don't post there and I'd rather not go and stir up drama on a thread my biggest contribution to has been to point out when an example was randomly removed by someone. But this doesn't sit well with me, and I'm not sure this thread...as popular and as good at getting consensus as it is... should be able to just skip Image Pickin' and discuss images on their thread itself.
Granted, in this most recent discussion they're acknowledging that the image they want to change has already been voted on and seem willing to get IP consensus as well... it's just unsettling to me that this discussion is happening there at all.
Again, I'm not trying to stir up drama, nor do I want people to get in trouble. It's just been bothering me for a while and I want to know if this is...okay. All love and respect to the people at the thread, ya'll are great, I'm just not sure this image thing you guys are doing is kosher. IP exists for a reason and no other cleanup thread ever just discusses images without the IP process, so...
