The rules don't require plot impact. As long as he/she has tropes, there's not really any rules for which character you can add. Earlier on, the extremely minor members were combined in folder, which was arguably more of a mess - I also doubt most readers are noteworthily interested in knowing which tropes Anglaise are associated, but if they are interested, it's much more practical that he has his own folder. I'd say, give them their own folders or don't add tropes about them at all - and as I mentioned, we can't forbid the latter.
Requesting the Was Once a Man entry to be removed, as it's not an example. The homies aren't transformed humans, they're just normal items and animals being given sentience from a part of a person's soul. The original is still intact, and mostly unaware of what even happened.
Is it possible to make a new page for the rest of Big Mom's children like what was done with the Sweet Commanders? The page for Big Mom's crew is getting way too long and my computer lags every time I try to edit.

I have edited the opening paragraph and removed the over thirty entries there. The reason being not every person who gets a name in the story deserves a mention here on TV Tropes. That is the One Piece wiki's job to do and they frankly do a better job than us when it comes to lists.The old openings created a Wall of Text that painful to read. And it got worse with every chapter as more characters got introduced.
I did not remove any tropes from any of the lesser characters from "General" so if you want to put anything there for Theme Naming reasons, go ahead.
Sorry. But the old openings had to go. If you have problems post them here but don't edit the page back to how it was.

Maybe I'm misreading this post but it seems rather hostile in tone. The two P Ms you sent me before editing this seemed rather hostile as well. I also noticed you didn't reply after I replied to your second PM with a second compromise that was more in your favor.
In any case, the new paragraph I guess is better but the last two sentences seem unnecessary if not a bit authoritative.
"The sheer size of Charlotte family means that not every family member will be listed as to do so would take up an entire page in itself. Only the most prominent family members, crew members, and homies will be listed here."
It's already generally understood by the setup of the page alone that most of the character sections within it are about prominent characters or at the very least characters with enough tropes to have their own section. The sentences are really unneeded for something obvious from a mere glance.
I mean the problem was clearly that people were adding to a list of characters not giving every named character a section of their own.
As for the very list that you removed, I did suggest in my first compromise to moving it under Massive Numbered Siblings. It would be more appropriate there I believe than in an opening paragraph.
I second Elfkaiser moving the list of how many children there are under Massive Numbered Siblings as it would be far much easier than the opening paragraph. And I've also removed the last two sentences from the opening paragraph because they might not be necessary to include there.

I was not trying to be hostile but I felt if I wasn't authoritative enough we would just get a back and forth Edit War. I do not mind those sentences being removed, though I do not believe in editors are geniuses, my only intention was not to cause an edit war over my changes.
I feel that listing every member that pops with a name in this crew/family/army would still be a burden to read but I care less how the "General tropes section" is worded than the opening. We'll see how that goes I guess.

I have a quick question about the Germa 66 section. Since some of these trope entries in that section are obviously mentioned in the Others section for the Vinsmoke Family and Sanji's entry, would it be necessary to move some of them to the appropriate subpages due to redundant information? Thanks.

Just moved the Vinsmokes over to this page with the Germa 66. That way it will be easier to manage the "In General" sections.
Both Germa and the Vinsmokes can be relocated elsewhere as needed after the current arc is over.

Unfortunately the page got too big because of that, so I moved both the Germa 66 and the Vinsmokes the the "Others" page. Happy editing!
Hey, can I remove all of the spoiler tags on Pudding's section and just put a spoiler warning notice at the top of her folder? There are so many of her tropes whited out that it just looks silly and redundant.

As what Fighteer pointed out in this ATT discussion
, "Never, ever, put "spoiler character" in a Character page folder. If you can't list the character without spoiling the work, then put a warning at the top and call it a day."
I've already got rid of spoilers for Charlotte Pudding's section and added a note at the top of the page stating that the spoilers for her section and the Super Rookies era are unmarked.

Ok, I had actually already prepared a message to be put at the top of her folder earlier. I un-blanked it just now.
I know you put the warning up top, but leave mine there too. In case somebody doesn't read the one at the top, they'll see the warning in her folder when they click it.

Why on earth do we have folders for Anglaise, Anana, and Compote? They have virtually zero impact on the plot.
