Line 30:
* Memes to works that inspired them (e.g. <code><nowiki>[[Leekspin]]</nowiki></code> to ''[[Bleach]]'').
* A creator's name or nickname to one of their works (e.g., <code><nowiki>[[Lowtax]]</nowiki></code> to ''[[Something Awful]]''). A creator is not synonymous with a work, even if it's the only thing they ever produced, and especially if they are only one of a set of contributors, collaborators or co-writers. If you think a creator's name is important enough that they need a page here, [[All The Tropes:Creator Page Guidelines|make it a proper creator page]].
Existing redirects that violate these guidelines are not justifications for you to do the same. In fact, for years now the mods have been slowly finding and fixing all the endless variations on proper trope and work names created by the ignorant and the lazy back on TVT. Don't make their work harder by adding to the pool.
