▲The number of pages which internally link to a page, as seen on [[Special:WhatLinksHere|What links here]]. These are the lifeblood of our trope articles -- they place an article within the [[Troper]] hivemind's awareness, channeling the [[Wiki Magic]] its way.
 
The term is not a back-formation from "wiki," like it might seem; it's named for TVT member Morgan Wick, who made lists of inbound links before their wiki software automated the process.
Line 22 ⟶ 21:
| '''36-99''' || '''Healthy ''' || None, just let it grow naturally. || A good [[Series]] entry will have this many references around the wiki.
|-
| '''100-999''' || '''Renowned''' || No action needed, though discussion may deem a split necessary -- renamingnecessary—renaming a trope in this range should be done only on good evidence that there is misuse or confusion (this means bad wicks -- wickswicks—wicks that are incorrect. Like links to [[Heroes]] if ''[[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]]'' is meant.) (The Funny, Heartwarming, and Awesome Moments don't count.) Enough work has gone into it and it has too much name recognition (perhaps even outside the wiki) to screw around with it. || One of the better-known tropes or series on the wiki. Expect a lot of discussion and work to have gone into the page, and people will be watching it like a hawk.
|-
| '''1000-2499''' || '''kiloWick''' || For a [[Series]], vet out weaker examples that might not fit. No real work needed. || The [[Trope Overdosed|most popular series]] and [[Tropes of Legend|strongest tropes]] go here.
