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.
Not by adding an example to a YMMV page to tell people not to discuss the leaks. Examples on YMMV pages are meant to document the fandom's reaction to the work, not wiki policy.
The usual method of adding this kind of warning is by a source code comment.
Also: we're no longer using wicks to the Rule of Cautious Editing Judgement as warnings to keep things calm.
Also also: the page is currently locked. Like, actually locked, not the fake lock bug.
Edited by wingedcatgirl Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.
Oh wow. I didn't know it's locked. Well, I'll do use that source code hidden meassage. I understand now that things change for the better.
“What is that? It's The Unknown!”
Also, Internet Backdraft is one of the audience reactions that are No Examples Please, even on YMMV pages, due to the excessive amount of complaining.
"They played us like a DAMN FIDDLE!" — Kazuhira Miller, Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain
Huh, no wonder why it considered as Flame Bait.
“What is that? It's The Unknown!”
So I was about to add an example on Ymmv to inform people not to mention the leaks like
Internet Backdraft: Mentioning gameplay leaks will cause a lot of outrage and boyscott. So it's best not to discuss here.
But then I saw that Internet Backdraft is now a Flame Bait therefore I can't use this tropes. So what's the best way to warm editor not to discuss the leaks without causing the Edit war?
