Titan Tuesday by Phillip M. Jackson Webcomic
This is a series that Mr. Jackson has been working on for a while. It's on his Twitter, Deviant Art, and Fur Affinity, and it seems to be getting popular. I couldn't help but notice there isn't a page for it, and I wondered if that should change. Should there be a TV Tropes page for it?
marvel vs dc Webcomic
Ah, the eternal debate: Marvel or DC? While both comic book giants have their own unique strengths and weaknesses, one thing is for sure - they both love their spandex.
From Superman's iconic red and blue suit to Spider-Man's red and blue suit (are we sensing a pattern here?), superhero costumes are an integral part of the comic book universe. But who wears it better? Marvel or DC?

Creator/MoringMark Page Getting Too Long Webcomic
The Creator Page for MoringMark is getting too long now, and needs to be split up into pages. Problem is, most of the things troped on the page relate to the various fancomics for Gravity Falls, Star vs. the Forces of Evil, and The Owl House, and while some of them do have specific names or series to them, those ones already have their own pages, with the ones on the creator page itself referring to various miscellaneous comics that, while stand alone, are largely connected in a sort of narrative that isn't definitively named.
So, how exactly should the page be split up, what namespaces should be used, should all of the series get their own pages or should only the largest one, The Owl House, get one, etc.

I'm adding an entry to https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/BecomingTheMask/FanWorks and am reading how to edit, but I am still have trouble grasping the linking and spoiler codes. Also, do fan work comics go under Fan Works or Web Comics?

What tropes fo I keep on the main page, and what tropes do I move to a recap page? Webcomic
So I’m in the middle of making a recap page for a webcomic and there’s tons of tropes in the main page of the work. Each chapter has its own recap page detailing what happens in the plot.
Then it got me thinking, if some tropes are only specific to one chapter, should I include that trope in both the recap subpage AND the main page? Or do I just leave it on the recap subpage and remove it from the main page?
Page for unpersoned webcomic Webcomic
A friend asked me if it would be possible to delete the page for The Three Mushketeers as the webcomic is no longer accessible. The site hosting it was taken down and from a brief search, it does not appear to have been cached by Google or preserved through external uploads.
Notability, Verifiability, Tropability says to bring up cases like this on here or the forum so yeah... would it be safe to throw it on the cutlist?

How to change the name for the work’s page? Webcomic
Hello, I created the page for this comic.https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Webcomic/CultureShockAllShaftsFall I added the creator’s name (All Shafts Fall) at the end to avoid complications with another webcomic with a page on this site called Culture Shock. I wanted to put the author name in brackets, but when I tried to do that while creating the page it wouldn’t let me. Also after talking with the creator, he said he’d prefer the name of the page to be JJBA: Culture Shock. But I do not know how to change the page name. Could someone who has more experience than me, please change the page name for me, or tell me how I can change it?
Is there a term for an unintentional Shout-Out? Webcomic
I've noticed that the beginning pages of this comic is an almost beat-for-beat mimicry of the first chapter of Mage & Demon Queen, something that the creator has noticed and has said was completely unintentional. Is there a unique term for that, or is it merely a Shout-Out, or is it not a Shout-Out at all?
How many tropes should be on a page before you should start organizing them into folders? Webcomic
Basically what the title suggests. A trope page I've been running for my friend's webcomic has been growing quite nicely and it's starting to get a little long, at what point should I start putting them in alphabetized folders like some of the longer trope pages do?
Essential Third Act Twists copyright? Webcomic

can i get a reality check on an example from YMMV/MobPsycho100? Webcomic
a School Bullying Is Harmless example based on audience opinion on Mob Psycho 100 was cut and moved to the main work page recently; the edit reason given for this and another similar moved example was '<insert trope> is not a YMMV trope'. i would like to move it back, as the mangaka is emphatically not arguing that Misery Builds Character here, but i really don't want to start an edit war. what would be the best course of action?
mob, the protagonist, spends time in a parallel world where he is bullied for months on end by another student. the vindictive spirit torturing both children wants to break mob and gain a sympathizer; his ulterior motive backfires. the hell the boy goes through in the process isn't presented as necessary for his development somehow, or inevitable, or something to just be shrugged off. it's also toned down for the anime, possibly to avoid complaining from parents' groups in japan or inspiring copycats.
- it is presented in-story as absolute torture;
- both the bully and mob are the subject of Mind Rape while it's occurring. he has additionally been Brainwashed into forgetting his own sense of agency and needs help to escape;
- and it teaches a lesson to both children—the bully is confronted with the effects of her own cruelty to others, while mob comes to understand that such cruelty exists in the world and that he's led a fairly charmed life up to that point.
he emerges grateful for the harrowing experience but aware that he was being manipulated the whole time, and forgives her; she repents. it isn't mentioned again.
the bullying doesn't give him PTSD, or make him more frightened of other people, but it does make him more aware of others' suffering. elsewhere in the series, two of the villains talk about how their own experiences with school bullying changed them for the worse. one of the strongest villains became a Hikikomori as a result.
because a small but vocal contingent of the fandom felt mob should have been traumatized by what happened to him, i added School Bullying Is Harmless to the YMMV page. as an opinion only part of the fanbase holds, it seemed appropriate.
also, is there a list of tropes not allowed on YMMV pages? thanks!

Page ownership issues. Webcomic
Canker Toon deleted this entry from the Art Shift page, referencing that they were the creator and they don't want this to be mentioned anymore.
This may be a violation of The Fic May Be Yours, but the Trope Page Is Ours, but I just want to be sure. Also, I may have seen them before on ATT, but I'm not sure.
EDIT: It seems like most of their edits have been reverted, but the Art Shift entry is the one I've seen that hasn't been reverted yet.

Weblinks and paywalls - Dilbert Webcomic
After creator Scott Adams' recent Role-Ending Misdemeanor lost Dilbert's syndication, he relaunched the website and (as I understand it) put all of the older strips behind a paywall.
Understandably, that broke our links to them in many examples.
(Not that any of the examples should actually need them for context, as links are not examples)
Natsirtthe Man has been working through the Dilbert pages and replacing the dead links with web.archive.org links that pull the old strips without hitting the paywall, sort-of circumventing it.
Do we have any concerns about that approach, given that they're now supposed to be members only? Technically, anyone could find them this way without us, but it does feel as if it might break the spirit, if not the letter, of the rules?
Edit: although having checked his site, I have no idea what's actually going on right now. Looks like the approach is changing again. Even so, would be interested in a steer on this.
