Hello. How do I make it so that I don't have to highlight spoilers in order to see what is underneath them?
Hello. Ever since you made me automoderated, I have a bunch of things on the right side of a page that I want to edit. Is that normal?
I was only just asking about those out of curioisity? And I acknowledge your decision to drop the friend request.
Hello. So when it comes to Complete Monster and Incorruptible Pure Pureness, how do we vote on those? Or do the moderators choose them?
Hello. When you edited https://allthetropes.org/wiki/Dork_Age/Comic_Books/The_DCU?diff=next&oldid=2056702 why did you add the reference, instead of just putting it into the text?
Hello. When I was editing https://allthetropes.org/wiki/Grandfather_Clause, https://allthetropes.org/wiki/Values_Dissonance/Comic_Books, and https://allthetropes.org/wiki/Fair_for_Its_Day, the abuse warning filter triggered for extremely trivial reasons, or when I was describing how values and issues had changed and how they would be depicted today. When it first triggered on Grandfather Clause, all I added about the Scooby-Doo entry was how the live action films had a few wacky sound effects as an allusion to them being a core element of the franchise. The second time it came up on Grandfather Clause, I was referring to how Nightwing being flirtatious is often not present in adaptations in the character or is toned down or ended as part of his character development. It also triggered on Values Dissonance, even though I was talking about how Nightwing and Batgirl's one night stand and the fact they are frequently depicted as soul mates would be depicted much more harshly today, with Dick's reputation as a nice person taking a serious hit today and Barbara would be heavily criticized for continuing to date Dick despite being aware Dick was unfaithful to Kory. Similarly on Fair for its Day, the abuse filter also flagged when I was describing how Starfire was one of the first sexually open and polyamorus characters in comics and how her lack of modesty and being required to stay strictly with Dick Grayson was depicted. The thing is, the abuse filter triggered for a nonsensical reason in the case of the first Grandfather Clause, and then for the other entries, it triggered when I was discussing how certain values and issues had changed and would be treated today, which given the content of the tropes, really should not have triggered the abuse filter. Why did the abuse filter trigger on either such a trivial edit, or on certain tropes where discussing how morals and values have changed are acceptable? Thank you.
What do I have to do to be able to edit without having to have moderation for it and when will I be able to post pictures?
I just now noticed the rule to add categories to images so I went through my history and did that to all the images I added.
