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.
That would be a job for the Trope Repair Shop instead of Ask the Tropers, and you'd need a wick check to see if wicks are using it as a National Stereotype trope or if it would be better of as a Useful Note about Texas.
Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.
What they said. I do get where you're coming from, though.
EDIT: Let me rephrase that.
A National Stereotype *is* a trope. A good chunk of this page looks more like Useful Notes, but either way, take a look at the Trope Repair Shop

Thanks all! Will attempt to submit to Trope Repair.
Howdy, long time troper but first time forum-er. Sorry I don't know exactly where to bring up this question, so bringing it here and hoping if this isn't the right space that I can get pointed to a better one.
The Everything Is Big in Texas page seems like it may have drifted away from its original purpose. I think that it's meant to be a trope page about exaggerated Texas stereotypes, but it seems to have morphed into a de facto Useful Notes page for the real state of Texas, down to being listed under both the National Stereotypes index and with all the other state Useful Notes pages on the index section for The United States. It seems to me like there should be a separate Useful Notes page for Texas that fits the model of the other states and that much of the current page should probably be migrated over there so that the actual trope can be described more clearly. If it's not meant to be a trope page, though, should it just be listed under Useful Notes?
