Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
Jerk Sue: Erin De Laney in Strawberry Hill, right down to the stubborn-ass "I don't need a man to help me" attitude when she first meets the hero. She gets better as the story goes on, though. Vickie Brown, unfortunately, is another example who barely starts to change her attitude until near the end.
Purity Sue: Her gentler heroines often read like this, especially Ceara O'Ceallaigh, Laura Townsend, Rachel Hollister, Cassandra Zerek, and Rebecca Morgan.
Sympathetic Sue: A lot of her heroines come off this way even if they are likeable.
