There's a difference between the band DragonForce and the video game Dragon Force (video game). You were putting tropes for the video game all over the various pages for the band. I just fixed all that. Please do be careful.

It's because I couldn't find the option to create the YMMV page for Dragon Force (video game), but thank you for fixing it for me.
On any page for the work, click the "Create New" button. If the page has no other subpages it'll be the eighth option on the menu, otherwise it might be higher up. If you're on a creator page, it'll be the first item in the menu. Failing that, you can add "/YMMV" to the end of the URL and hit enter.
If you don't see YMMV on the create new menu, you're probably on a trope page or another kind of top page that doesn't normally have YMMV subpages, and maybe you shouldn't be trying to create that kind of page for it. Or the page already has a YMMV -- either real content or a redirect -- so you can't create a new one.
Regardless, putting tropes on a subpage for the wrong main page skirts dangerously close to wiki vandalism -- it is the deliberate mislocation of information. I mean, use a little common sense -- just because the band has the same name as the video game doesn't mean they're the same entity, or that someone looking for video game info is going to naturally go to the band's pages. If you honestly can't figure out how to create the appropriate subpage, don't just throw the tropes on any page that happens to look "good enough".
If you want an official ruling, then here: It is better to leave Trivia, Fridge, YMMV, Crowner and other items with their own specific subpages on the main page if you cannot figure out how to create the appropriate subpage. Sooner or later the Wiki Magic will take care of it. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES MOVE THEM TO THE SUBPAGE OF SOMETHING WITH A SIMILAR NAME JUST BECAUSE IT HAS A SIMILAR NAME. Doing so from now on will be considered wiki vandalism and a tempbannable offense.

Agreed. And, assuming no other mod disagrees, I'll update the appropriate "policy" page(s) within a week.
A much more simpler way of putting what Bob says is "run it by us first if you have doubts". We appreciate that you're trying to find the best solution, but putting stuff on the wrong page only creates more problems than it solves usually.
Let me address two topics, both AS A MOD.
First off, fine, I get it, we may not have a MAIN page for something. Doesn't mean we don;t have the power to pencil in subpage with material that belongs on it and someone can make the main page later. In fact, do that if there is not main-page for subpage material that belongs on a subpage.
Second, shout-outs go on Trivia pages, or linked on trivia pages if they are so long they need their own page, but otherwise, let them stay on Trivia pages.
