NVM, I misread something

Okay, this was removed for being trope shoehorning and added back without an edit reason:
- Winged Humanoid: In The Stinger of Volume 6, Salem is causing wings to grow from Beringels that she's creating.
Gorillas don't classify as the kind of 'humanoids' that are covered by the Winged Humanoid trope. It's for human-like beings that have wings. Beringel aren't human-like. They're gorilla-like.
If my post doesn't mention a giant flying sperm whale with oversized teeth and lionfish fins for flippers, it just isn't worth reading. Hide / Show Replies
There's no discussion to be had here. It is a clear trope misuse of Winged Humanoid, and Donquill will suffer the consequences of edit warring.

I think there's some miscommunication over what qualifies as a Zero Context Example. Can we hammer that out now? I'm seeing the spark of an edit war.
RE: the source of the Sea Feilong's name, hard to figure out what that should go under:
Is it not All There in the Manual, since said merchandise item that revealed the name was only offered directly from Rooster Teeth's site? "Information not mentioned within a specific work, but only found in supplemental material or in other works within the franchise".
Not sure if it would fit Word of Saint Paul, since it theoretically is from the primary creator. Maybe Word of God?

Well, All There in the Manual tends to be for supplementary setting information, and that's not what's happened here.
Word of God is for those situations where the creator has announced the information — interviews, blogs, Twitter posts, etc. That's also not what's happened here.
Word of Saint Paul is for those situations where other sources connected to the work have given out the information — they're not creator, it's not supplementary setting information, but it is an official source that does have the right to give out this information.
It is hard to know how information on merchandise (it's revealed on a mug if I remember rightly?) should be troped. To me, merchandising is more like Word of Saint Paul than Word of God — it's hasn't been announced by the creator, but Rooster Teeth is an official source of information for its own works and the advertising of those works via merchandising.
If it's not Word of Saint Paul, perhaps we're missing a trope here, one for when setting information is revealed through the show's advertising and merchandising instead of All There in the Manual, Word of God, Word of Saint Paul, or Word of Dante.

Revamping the structure of the RWBY Character pages due to the Monsters and Enemies page getting too unwieldy. This has been discussed and hashed out on the RWBY Forum, please see from this post
onwards. Please note that any new tropes added to the old Character pages on the 19th October 2017 may not have been captured. Please check, and readd if I've missed it.
I have to know something. I added the Monster of the Week trope to the main Grimm section and was wondering if I got it right. I know some Grimm are the main antagonists of episodes that don't feature a human antagonist.
