Line 19:
* '''Tropes applied to the creator as if they are a fictional character.''' Please resist the urge to apply character tropes to [[Real Life]] people. We've had a lot of [[Square Peg, Round Trope]] issues in the past with this, so as a general guideline, it's best to apply [[No Real Life Examples, Please]] to creators. If it seems harmless, it might be overlooked [[Just for Fun]], and there is an exception for [[Conversational Troping]] as mentioned above, but on the whole this is something [[Rule of Cautious Editing Judgement|best avoided]].
* '''Tropes that apply to ''individual'' works they've created.''' Any tropes listed should be relevant to their work as a whole, not to just one work. So if a trope only applies to ''one'' work they've made, please list it on that work's page instead.
* '''[[Creator Bashing]].''' Creator pages should not be used to complain about how much a person sucks. We're not here to hate on people. Multiple creator pages, including [[Uwe Boll]] and [[Microsoft]], were sent to the
* '''Subjectivity and YMMV.''' We don't list [[Your Mileage May Vary|YMMV]] items for real-life people. That includes creators. Please don't list [[Audience Reactions]] or [[Your Mileage May Vary|YMMV]] for a creator.
* '''Drooling.''' In the past, we've had pages for actresses that consisted primarily of gushing about how hot they are. [[All The Tropes:No Lewdness No Prudishness|This is not okay.]] It's inappropriate and will not be tolerated.
