Sean Murray I said \\\"This is a pretty complex trope in fiction. This can be elaborated upon. And why should this be \\\'less formal\\\'?\\\"
I think the introduction could be shorter because it reads like an attempted Wikipedia description -- TV Tropes [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HomePage is less formal]] by nature. It\\\'s not terrible, in fact the first sentence is a great opener, but explaining in depth what a political party is, and how fiction does indeed differ from RealLife, didn\\\'t make me want to read any further, and aren\\\'t essential in explaining the trope.

Likewise, fictional settings that are democracies are typically shown to have political parties which reflect the issues and opinions which characterize the political climate of a story\\\'s setting.\\\'\\\'
