== What ''Not'' To Do ==
* '''IMPORTANT:''' Copying verbatim from [[TV Tropes]] is copyright infringement, and a good way to earn speedy deletion. See [[All The Tropes:Copyrights]] if you want to know why. (Repeated copying verbatim from [[TV Tropes]] or other copyrighted works is a good way to have your account blocked or banned.)
* Don't delete parts of the Works page template just because you don't know or don't understand what they are. All but one of them are necessary for the proper appearance and functioning of the page and are thus ''mandatory''; the one that is optional is at the very bottom of the page and a comment already embedded in the template identifies it.
* If you copy a work's description from Wikipedia or another source that has a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license (which is just fine; we use the same license here), don't try to pass it off as your own work. It's okay to say "I got the description from Wikipedia" in the edit summary instead of on the work page, but if you don't give credit at all, we could get into some legal trouble.
