Thread:Forum:Trope Talk/The The Tropes

I noticed that there are a lot of tropes that start with "The" for no particular reason except at most making linking on pmwiki easier and then other people copying that format. Characters seem to be particularly affected, so I'm making a list of those. I think in the name of consistency the definite articles should be left out, as there doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason for which tropes have it and which don't.
