Much of our wiki relies on the "Examples" section, where we pull our many articles together. Every now and then you might see a [[Wikipedia Updater]] who will delete your example with no reason. A small [[Edit War]] of delete/restore will start, before someone on the discussion page brings up "notability." This page is your response.
 
If it fits the trope description, then it can be put in. All it requires is someone to put it in there. Simple as that. It could be a multi-million viewer [[ABC]] [[Sitcom]], or an all-but-forgotten Japanese [[Video Game Tropes|videogame]], or a [[Sprite Comic]] about ''[[EarthboundEarthBound]]'' that [[Stillborn Serial|died after seven strips]]. Every published story is notable.
 
We have examples ranging from media as diverse as [[Film]] to [[Fan Fiction]] and everything in between. Removing tropes, examples... anything... because of "notability" stifles the wiki. It can intimidate new writers who wanted to put in an example they liked and had it shot down. Hell, tropes are ''defined'' by their examples—a trope without an example is just "A thing that happened".
