  • 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.

Cquote1

"I don't wanna nitpick Tom, but is this really your plan

 Spend your whole life locked inside a mall?

Maybe that's okay for now,

But someday you'll be out of food and guns,

And you'll have to make the call.

I'm not surprised to see you haven't thought it through enough

You never had the head for all that 'bigger picture' stuff.

But Tom, that's what I do,

And I plan on eating you, slowly!"
—Jonathan Coulton, "Re: Your Brains"

Cquote1
"Whether it's The Trojan War, The Battle of Thermopylae, or the last stand at The Alamo, many of the famous battle in history were sieges in which small forces took on much larger armies. Unfortunately sieges don't make good stories because the smaller force won. They make the history books because the little guys fought well before they died."
—Michael Westen doing a voiceover, Burn Notice
