Line 21:
That's why Wikipedia is an invaluable tool for all of us here. That's why we link to it at the top of every work page. Wikipedia gives users a chance to dig up even more information on their favorite media.
It's also useful to
And like all literary criticism, opinions are definitely tolerated. We do not enforce Neutral Point of View here, but instead support Multiple Points of View (MPOV). Keep in mind [[Values Dissonance]] -- the idea that others social norms may lead to different opinions than your own. While MPOV makes it a little more difficult to maintain order, we're a creative bunch and need space to discuss ideas and opinions. That doesn't mean blatantly false things get to stay, because we're not Conservapedia; if it's provably false, [[Kill It with Fire]].
== Procedural Differences ==
As we don't have so many members yet, there is not the same level of bureaucracy here. We currently have three bureaucrats
In general though, we try to stick to the [[All The Tropes:Policy for Wiki Staff|Policy for Wiki Staff]] as much as possible. And if we don't, call us out on it! (We specifically say that simply disagreeing with a mod will ''not'' get you banned here.) Your opinions are always valuable, as this is a community-led wiki.
And instead of Articles for Creation, new tropes are brewed in the [[Trope Workshop]]. Pages on creators or works can skip this step, because [[Works Pages Are a Free Launch]].
We don't have a Village Pump or a Departure Lounge or any of those other pages that the various Wikimedia wikis set aside for questions. Instead, we encourage people to ask questions on our [[Special:WikiForum|Forums]] - if you have an account here, you have the same account there.
===Important Note===
As a result of the Great Miraheze Spam Flood that affected multiple wikis in December 2020, we have instituted moderation of posts. Your edits and image uploads will ''not'' appear immediately, the way that they would on Wikipedia.
A small number of people are exempt from this anti-spam measure. This is a privilege given to them for consistently good edits and being a Troper in good standing, not a right - it has to be earned, and it can be removed if the Troper decides to go rogue or starts ignoring the [[ATT:Style Guide|Style Guide]] or other wiki policies and guidelines.
== Technical Differences ==
While we do try to keep our naming system similar to Wikipedia, there are a few differences. If a trope is named the same as a work, the trope always wins. The work is relegated to the relative obscurity of having parentheses after its name. Also, we're much more likely to use stylized titles for works as the main entry. There are redirects and disambiguation pages, so you'll probably be
We do use a lot of subpages, though. And subpages of subpages. No "List of *" to be found here
The namespace shortcut for <code>All The Tropes:</code> is <code>ATT:</code>.
