Avatar: The Last Airbender is on the Science-Fiction Fanfic Index. That seems... weird. Looking at the index itself, it seems that all the works that have fanfics based on them get that Index listed on their page.
That seems... weird.

If a troper gives a little bit of reasonable constructive criticism that states whatever flaws this site has and where the site can improve on those flaws, would that troper be banned for having a little bit negativity even though sometimes, that negativity can be useful to help you get better and fix your mistakes? I'm just curious.

Something odd has happened;
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/:%20TheBeastmaster This page suddenly exists. I don't know what caused it to exist, and it's on my Watchlist at the moment. Does it need to be put on the Cut List? And due to its design, I have no idea how to do that(due to the page design) or what to do.

Hello, I am requesting the removal of the "Already have?" tag from the Myth YKTTW. After further discussion Dun Dun, who added the tag, has withdrawn their concern about that.
Charleston Man deleted some items of YMMV.Pokemon Anime with the edit reason Flame Bait. One of the removed items is Unintentionally Unsympathetic,the other is an example of The Woobie.
