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.
Those opening narrations were used. This is why all examples must be written in historical present tense
. We are a literary analysis group, and works "re-occur" every time they are experienced. If the opening narrations were removed from the work, then the examples should be updated with Orwellian Retcon reflecting that earlier versions of Season 1 episodes had a narration and versions after [when?] no longer have one.
Okay, but in the case of Arrow, as it ended, what about switching to the narration from the last episode, as a way to acknowledge that it ended?
A lot of these pages are read by people unfamiliar with the work, or not yet finished with it. Wouldn't that ending narration count as an above-the-description spoiler?

Exactly. And the argument I have for removing the Flash's season 5 intro is that Nora is no longer a character. Lo T & Supergirl I don't have an issue with, because those intro's aren't specific, just giving a general synopsis of the basic plot.
Can more general quotes be found for Flash and Arrow?
Is this discussion about the page quote, not the trope Opening Narration? Because, again, "updating" a trope is wrong; you add the new examples instead of removing the old examples.

^ Yeah, I think they're referring to the quote.

Debates over a page quote should be handled by the General Page Quote Discussion thread, and this is covered by the rule from How to Create a Work's Page; no spoilers in the description.
Recent events suggest to me that I use this tool for questions, so here it is. The current Arrowverse shows have no opening narrations whatsover. What's wrong with removing them to update the pages accordingly?
