Line 12:
* Have an ordinary blue link.
 
=== [[Creators]] ===
These are the people who make creative works -- authors, actors, directors, voice actors, gaffers, best boys, and so on. For the case of musicians, creator pages commonly are used in place of pages on individual songs or albums -- but works with more storyline like operas and musicals should have their own pages.
* Are listed on the various types of [[trope]] pages, but may be linked from anywhere. Can be used anywhere a work can.
Line 51:
** Used on a [[All The Tropes:Creator Page Guidelines|creator page]]. Creator pages are not allowed to have YMMV items, and YMMV items found on creator pages should simply be deleted rather than moved.
 
=== [[Trivia Trope]]s ===
Facts that occur during or around the production of a work but are not elements written to tell the story. Casting choices not relevant to the story, who did what to whom on set, [[Throw It In]], [[Shout-Out]]s, etc.
 
Line 60:
* May be linked from anywhere
 
=== [[Administrivia]] / [[Wiki Tropes]] ===
Stuff related to the wiki or the Internet in general, this page included. The "tropes" part is only in the meta sense, if you consider All The Tropes a work of fiction.
 
Line 88:
* Finally, certain namespaces that are just for fun also don't need to obey these rules. These include Fridge, [[Headscratchers]], [[Wild Mass Guessing]], [[Haiku]], and [[Analysis]]. Same goes for the Discussions, Reviews and Live Blogs sections. This does ''not'' mean you can do whatever you please there.
 
<!-- ''NOTE:'' We've implemented an in-page notification system as well. At the moment it only works for items in the [[Your Mileage May Vary|YMMV]] or [[Audience Reaction]] indexes and only within the examples section for pages with the "work", "creator" or "examples" type. If you see any link on a page that is preceded by a red bullet, that means it may not belong in the main article. It will also appear in a list over the editing box for that page. If you intend to help move such examples or remove potholes, ''please'' make sure they don't meet some of the criteria from the "Exceptions" section above. -->
