Line 1: ~~{{trope}}~~ Is there something like this already in the wiki? You were probably directed here from ~~YKTTW~~the [[Trope Workshop]], in which case, the person who linked you to this page wants you to basically insert one or any combination of the following excuses into the post: * It's hard to imagine how we could have missed this one, so I wouldn't be surprised if an article already exists... but I couldn't seem to find it. Line 10 ⟶ 9: * I tried to search but got Google Plexed, and I don't know how to narrow it down. * I've seen entries that look like this one, but this might be a special case. I can't tell for myself. * How do you expect me to browse this site and find articles without help when you guys don't even bother to sort half your indexes or even give your tropes titles that even remotely describe their meaning?! [[Solve the Soup Cans]]? [[Planet Eris]]?! [[Esoteric Trope Names\|What the hell are those supposed to mean?!!]] * [[Category:Did Not Do the Research\|Fine, I admit it, I'm just downright lazy.]] As a punishment for the poster's laziness, feel free to humiliate them by [[Yes, We DO Have This One\|linking to the already existing article]], if it exists. [[Bonus Points]] if the existing article uses the same title they were going to use. Don't worry, they'll feel the hurt. Line 17 ⟶ 16: If the poster ''did'' search, and they really ''didn't'' find it however, don't feel too bad about shooting them down in the first place. We all make mistakes. The best the person can hope for is, of course, a chorus of [[How Did We Miss This One?]] This is increasingly rare. Enjoy these golden days while they last, tropers~~. Another increasingly rare one is that we ''did'' have it, but it was lost in [[The Great Crash]]~~. And then there's "[[TV Tropes]] has it, but we don't" (or, occasionally, "[[All The Tropes:Yes, We DO Have This One\|Yes, we have it]], but TV Tropes doesn't.") In which case someone got confused somewhere along the way. See [[Lost and Found]] for a useful way of avoiding this. Line 23 ⟶ 24: {{reflist}} [[Category:Predefined Messages]] [[Category:~~Do We Have This One?~~{{PAGENAME}}]] [[Category:This Index Asked You a Question]] [[Category:Trope Workshop Stock Phrases]]
