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.
Well, at a quick skim, you've avoided one of the most egregious character page errors (listing characters without tropes), so good job there.
You are going to want to go over our spoiler policy and context requirements. I did see that you had some spoiler tags hiding the entire example including what trope it is — that's not allowed.
Edited by wingedcatgirl Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.
Thanks! I'm updating it now to match the guidelines. I know this is kind of an obscure game but I was definitely erring on the side of too many spoiler tags when I wrote it. Hopefully when I'm done it will be easier to read.
The biggest problem is some "stealth" Zero-Context Examples, where you do give SOME explanation, but it doesn't actually tell us anything about what the trope is, or how it happens. For example:
If you don't know who these characters are, then this tells you nothing. It's especially worthless if you don't know what the Red Oni, Blue Oni trope is about.
A Blue Oni has many traits associated with him, like, being rational, calm, intellectual, introverted, compared to the more dynamic, impulsive, and physical Red Oni. So you should list which Red/Blue Oni traits apply to each character, as well as a few examples of scenes where they demonstrate those traits.
And, there are other tropes like this all over the page. EVERY trope needs to be written in a way where anyone can understand the example, regardless of whether or not they're familiar with the work OR the trope's definition.
Thanks for this! I will work on rewriting it to fit the context rules.
By the way, shout-out to you, boredenglishmajor, for being so polite and respectful in this thread.

Hi everybody. I'm a new Troper and created my first Character Sheet for one of my favorite underrated games, The Space Bar. I'm still working on it, but I'd appreciate any feedback, especially from people who know the game. I've also added some YMMV and Headscratcher tabs. Thanks!
