Line 15:
A corollary of this is that no example is obvious, even if it's from ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''. No, ''[[Mind Screw|especially]]'' if it's from ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''. You should also not make a [[Zero Context Example]], "[[Two Words|One word]]: X", or "X. That is all." Even if, for instance, you put your ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' References into Anime and Manga section, most readers, seeing "Russia. Just Russia." will be thinking of [[Russia|a country]].
Another corollary is to not assume the exact nature of a trope based on its title alone (especially one that's not [[SPOON]]{{who}} certified<ref>MOD: Whatever SPOON is. Something from [[The Other Tropes Wiki]], I'm guessing.</ref>). Read the description before you make any comments or examples.
If you're looking for the trope about ''semantically'' self-explanatory media titles, see [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]. See also [[Fan Myopia]], a big cause of this.
