== Medium ==
* Example at the top by a new troper who doesn't know to always put new examples at the bottom.
Line 46 ⟶ 48:
* Example. (And how!)
** [[Justifying Edit|But it actually isn't!]]
*** Utterly unironic [[All The Tropes:Example Indentation in Trope Lists|sub-bulleted]] condemnation of [[Justifying Edit|Justifying Edits]]s. [[Hypocritical Humor|Hypocritical]] reminder to [[Repair, Don't Respond]].
* Example from an obscure work at or near the top only because it was [[Entry Pimp|a favorite]] of the Trope Launcher.
* Equally obscure example at or near the top because the three-hundredth edit was made by someone who either [[Parabombing|doesn't know the rules]] or feels that this example is way better than the ones below.
Line 59 ⟶ 61:
* Example that has nothing to do with the trope, but is related to the title of the trope; which the original Troper chose to be clever.
* [[Zero Context Example|Example]].
* Example that was closer to the top due to an overeager [[Entry Pimp|Entry Pimper]]er, but was pushed downward by more of the same.
* Example after example about ''Obscure Anime [[No Export for You|That Was Never Released Outside Japan]]''.
* Example that will be repeated further down the page by an overeager fan of the series.
Line 140 ⟶ 142:
** Attempt to delete/rectify above, which [[Fox News Liberal|gets restored multiple times]] as ideological bias matches community preferences.
*** Above example deleted.
* example that has no capitalization or punctuation because the person who wrote it didnt realize that tvall the tropes isnt a chatroom
* Example that steps on a fanboys' toes.
** [[Justifying Edit|Justified]] because.
Line 153 ⟶ 155:
* Example that leaves out article but has otherwise perfect grammar.
* An example that is already on the page but uses somewhat different writing.
* {{spoiler|Spoiler covered}} example from a series you've been following {{spoiler|that lacks the volume or episode it appears in}}, leading you to believe {{spoiler|that you've passed this spoiler and that [[Late Arrival Spoiler|you should know this already]]}}. You haven't, and so you've been {{spoiler|spoiled! [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|Curse you, TVAll The Tropes!]]}}
* 陰茎の例日本語。(see [[The First Law of Trope Examples]]).
** Translation of the above from a bilingual troper who thinks too highly of himself.
Line 190 ⟶ 192:
* Completely mundane example, but the person who added it insists that he isn't making it up.
* Example that was sorted into the wrong medium.
* Example from ''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]'', with shoehorned reminder of that game's [[Black and Grey Morality]] and/or [[World Half Empty]], probably describing the Imperium at length, and ending with "And they're the ''good'' guys."
* Example, combining this with Rape The Dog, [[Nightmare Fuel]], or some other trope whose name we had to change.
make matters worse, a third editor went on to delete the first half, leaving you with no clue what it's about unless by some chance it happens to look familiar to you.
Line 205 ⟶ 207:
** Example of an aversion that's actually a totally straight example of the trope.
** Example of a subversion that actually is a subversion. Probably the first you've seen all day.
* Not exactly an example of [[Trope Name Injokes]], but it's so funny I have to tell you all about the time in [[Trope Overdosed]] where (insert description of either A} the trope being played perfectly straight or B} something completely unrelated) and it was so funny that I forgot we had [[Examples Searching for a Trope]] where these things really ought to go.
* Repeated example from earlier on the list.
* Example from a show you don't watch and may have never heard of, written [[Gushing About Shows You Like|so worshipfully]] that you get [[Hype Aversion]] from a single sentence fragment.
Line 277 ⟶ 279:
** series/movies/books/videogames
* Obligatory ''[[Doctor Who]]'' example.
* Example that is [[Pothole|pot holed]] right back the [[Trope Name Injokes|this page]].
* [[Trope Name Injokes]] is a pretty good description of the plot to ''Series''.
* [[Two Words: Obvious Trope|One word]]: Example. Many, many more words. In fact, an entire paragraph of words describing that example, but still incomprehensible unless you're familiar with the source, probably describing how cool [[This Troper]] thinks the source is and how great an example it allegedly is.
* Example from [[Indiana Jones|something]] with a [[Broken Base]], written in a highly diplomatic and value-neutral way, using phrases like "this upset some of the fans". This example probably replaced several paragraphs worth of argument from opposite sides of the schism, possibly [[Thread Mode|between the same two people]].
** Follow up post by someone who didn't get the memo, continuing the argument by saying how much that usage of the trope sucked.
*** Rebuttal from someone else who didn't get the memo, responding to the above, which eventually gets the page locked.
* Example from the original version of a classic horror film, written in such a way as to instantly differentiate itself from the poorly-received [[R EmakeRemake]] or myriad [[Sequelitis|disappointing sequels]].
* Example from a series you don't watch and has never particularly interested you, but - from this example, at least - actually sounds kind of clever. [[All The Tropes as a Gateway Drug|Perhaps the series is worth checking out?]]
* In ''Series'', {{spoiler|this trope is used in such a spoileriffic fashion that only the show name has escaped spoiler tags. Despite this caution, the show's mere presence on this page is enough to clue people in.}}
Line 329 ⟶ 331:
** Response that points out that the above example is not an example.
*** Further response that suggests it may be an example of [[Next Trope]].
* Example that, for some reason, [[Trope Name Injokes|potholes back to this same page]].
* Example that, for some reason, italicizes a ''[[Wiki Word]]'' that isn't a title.
* Example that, [[Rule of Three|for some reason]], put a [[Wiki Word]] in brackets, resulting in a bracketed number instead of the simple link the editor intended.
Line 380 ⟶ 382:
* Example from a webcomic that was updated earlier today or an episode that just aired which you wanted to add as well. Making you wonder [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|what other people do with their lives]].
* Obligatory reference that [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life]].
* Trope Name is a Time Lord, and TVAll The Tropes is its TARDIS.
* An example where the editor, instead of using a [[Wiki Word]], just put the words in curly brackets for some reason.
** An example where a [[Wiki Word]] is potholed to ''itself''.
* An otherwise-unnoteworthy example .<ref>that some bastard decided to add a snark to inside a hottipfootnote</ref>.
* An example With random Capital letterS.
* An example that is more [[Wild Mass Guessing]] than anything else.
Line 434 ⟶ 436:
* {{supersecretspoiler| Example using deprecated mark-up}} <s>in a lame attempt at sarcasm</s>.
* An example from ''[[Mass Effect]]''.
** An example of how it was subverted in ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'' that really should be a different trope altogether, with bad [[All The Tropes:Example Indentation in Trope Lists|Example Indentation]] on top.
* Example from ''[[Paranoia]]'', described in a perfectly normal manner from the perspective of the real world.
** In-character complaint about security levels, happiness, and treason. Request that the above person report to an execution chamber.
* Example that was originally typed with no space after the bullet, but was automatically rectified by the wiki.
* exmplew ith Relly bad spelleng or Lost of tyops sgiend egogy.
* Obligatory example with [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]].
* An example without the name of the work because this troper forgot.
* Example discussing how Show/Person X with a large [[Periphery Hatedom]] does this trope badly. Probably already on the page, but the troper that puts it really hates this thing.
Line 448 ⟶ 450:
* Example from an obscure fetish-based independent work with a link to said work's trope page, not pointing out that said work is fetish-based.
* Example described as "an interesting use of this trope" or "an odd example" despite being unremarkable.
* An example from a work.<br /><br />There was a need for paragraphs.
 
There was a need for paragraphs.
* Example that's played straight and subverted, somehow.
* Vague non-example pointing out this trope ''always'' occurs in this medium.
Line 459 ⟶ 463:
* An example that blatantly insults a particular [[Guilty Pleasure]] series that is not deleted because a lot of tropers agree with it.
* An example that's already been brought up twice, potholed to [[How Did We Miss This One?]].
* Example containing [[Pothole|a pothole broken into]] ''[[Pothole|multiple]]'' [[Pothole|links to the]] ''[[PotholesPothole|same article]]'' [[Pothole|by]] ''[[Pothole|italicized words]]''. Alternatively, example containing 'improper formatting of italics''.
* Example that is duplicated on Another Related Trope Page. It really fits on that page better, but it hasn't been removed because that page is newer, and no one made the connection between the two tropes until after the newer one was launched.
* Example of an inversion that technically doesn't belong here, since the inverted trope has its own page.
Line 498 ⟶ 502:
* Non-example stating that [[Captain Obvious|this sometimes occurs in real life]].
* Example from earlier on the page! Again!
* Urban Legend that totally happened to this troper's sister's ex-boyfriend's 2nd cousin's niece's math teacher's internet chat friend.
