** [[Entry Pimp|Entry Pimping]]. The image is not there solely to bring your favorite work to the attention of others.<ref>Of course if your favorite work actually does have a better picture for a trope, that's a different matter...</ref>
** Spoilers. There's no code to make an image disappear when the image pops up and most peoples eyes are immediately drawn to images, meaning they can't unsee the image.
** Images based on a [[Literal -Minded]] interpretation of the trope's title can be misleading. For example, [[Pet the Dog]] is not about [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|petting dogs]], it's a metaphor, which is a reason that the page features a kitten instead.
** "X shows us how it's done", "One of these things is not like the others", and other [[Memetic Mutation|meme-tastic]] captions are worse than nothing. Captions are not mandatory.
