Aye, that is a good one.

I would disagree. We do not want "tropes" found in a creator's career. Maybe Trivia, but not tropes.

I found this: Outlaw Starr which is tied to ☯utlaw St★rr, but there is no Creator page or Music page. These do appear to be actual people, but it may need to be name-spaced before being scrubbed.

It is a mess of going on about how hot the people are and how dark skinned they are and is just a huge old garbage pile in general.

Actually, that character page ought to be cut. We don't do subpages for unpublished works.

The page is on Darth, but it is a real band with a discography, so the location must be incorrect.

Hmm, I can't find much material online on that; let's see if ~T Sims is still around.

Its a fictional band thats made up of semi real people. Lol its ok to cut the characters sheet. Dark Fantasy X already lost its sheet. So whatever causes less friction.

What do you mean by "semi-real" people?

From the way the article is written it sounds like they have stage personas based on themselves. Regardless, tropes like Ambiguously Brown sure as heck would not apply :p

Sorry to double post, I am doing a wick clean and do not want to get sidetracked but Miranda Cosgrove has a bunch of fanservice tropes that seem like they should not be there. If someone more familiar with the policy on personal trope could fix it up that would be great.

Uhhh, Les Yay Shipping, Memetic Sex God and Moe are a few tropes that should probably go. We really don't care about real life shipping(or shipping in general really), and calling a real life person a memetic sex goddess is just creepy. Moe is one I'm not too sure of though, but I'm also not sure if appropriate.

Mind you, this is just on the YMMV page(which is already thin ice, the mods have repeatedly said YMMV for real life people is a little off mission and often nothing but bashing), so I'll have to look though the main page for any that seem out of place.

For creators, I usually just use:

Tropes in his/her works:

Short and to-the-point.

That's also what I usually use.

I've been moving Pages to the Creator namespace, and I will probably soon move Gillian Jacobs onto Creator, however her page is awful for gushing over her. It will need a bit of work. Others I have found:

• Carmen Villalobos

Not sure if this is the right thread to ask, but after stumbling upon Creator.Rebornica, almost all of the page seems to be about the creator as a person, both the description and the tropes.

Yeah, this is the right thread. And that page is troping his life.

Most of Noah Antwiler is real life troping.

Judy Garland... For one thing, it has Signature Song, which is YMMV, but then there's these. All of them should go, no?

Wow, didn't think this old thread I made on my first account would get revived again. I guess all of the points on the OP are still valid? I probably should expand it to mention personal life tropes.

hmmm, I am leaning on cutting most of them but not sure if that would be extreme or not.

Suppressed Mammaries is trivia so it can stay.

This can be cut from Judy Garland, right? Or moved to YMMV? Do we make YMMV pages for creators?

As long as it is explicitily about their works, I believe YMMV pages for creators can be made.

Is Frank Frazetta known for Sexy Packaging or just Covers Always Lie?

From Emily Bett Rickards.

• Ascended Extra: Her role on Arrow wasn't meant to be very large or developed — in the comics, Felicity is barely more than a footnote of a character — but the producers (and later the viewers) reacted to her and her chemistry with Stephen Amell so positively that she was brought back with greater importance, becoming the third person to join Team Arrow, not to mention Oliver Queen's love interest...effectively pushing aside his longtime romantic partner from the comics in the process.
• The Cast Show Off: Zig-Zagged. She was trained in musical theater, but she never sung or/and danced in the Arrowverse shows on-screen. She and her Arrow co-stars sang "Summer Nights" on the show's Season One behind the scenes video, with her and John Barrowman's voices standing out.
• Classically-Trained Extra: She was trained in musical theater, but she mainly played bit roles before playing Felicity Smoak (and even that was supposed to be one too).
• Creator Backlash: She's aware in some aspect of her character now being considered a Base-Breaking Character for the entire Arrowverse after the Seasonal Rot of Arrow Seasons 3, 4, and 6 along with the infamous ending to the Crisis on Earth-X Crisis Crossover. However, Rickards' comments in interviews have alluded that she's just as frustrated as the audience is about her character's mishandling. Notably, she was angry about Felicity's disability storyline being quickly brushed aside (as she had even done tons of research about disabilities and was excited to represent the individuals in question). Furthermore, she was disappointed about the Darker and Edgier material she was asked to shoulder during Arrow Seasons 3 and 4 (since she felt that the more angsty storylines she was given didn't play to her strengths).
• Disappeared Dad: Strangely common across her roles.
  • Her character's father in the music video for Nickelback's "Never Gonna Be Alone" is revealed to be Dead All Along.
  • Her character's father in Arrow was a Chekhov M.I.A..
• She Also Did:
  • She was The Narrator for the audiobook version of "The Wicked Ones," a short story set in the universe of The Mortal Instruments.
  • She's also continued her theater work outside of her television roles, gaining significant critical praise when she starred in the lead role of Zayd Dorn's Reborning at the Annex Theater in Vancouver during early 2018.
• Nice Girl: The many detractors of Felicity Smoak seem to consider Rickards herself an Unacceptable Target, with even the harshest perspectives given regarding Rickard herself being that she's "a lackluster actress, but still a wonderful human being." Most seem to pity her for having to play such an unpopular character instead. This reputation isn't that undeserved either, with her having started a T-shirt campaign to help earn money for auto-immune diseases-related charities in 2016 and coming up with a new $250,000 scholarship program for Vancouver Film School in 2019, both being funded largely out of her own pocket.

The last one seems like it personal trope but overall a lot of this reads very weird to me and I can't put my finger on it. Maybe its because a lot of it reads like an excuse to complain about a single character and show which can just be on the Arrow pages. What is good to keep and what is a cut?

I can't find sufficient context for what should be straightforward: "this person plays all-around nice characters".
