What are these buttons at the top of the page for?
Let's go over them:
-Speech bubbles: Article discussion.
-Quote marks: Quotes.
-Tinfoil hat: Wild Mass Guessing (AKA WMG), a page for an article that allows for speculation, guessing, and theorizing.
-L in square: Laconic wiki, a more shorter and laconic version of an article.
-Vader helmet: Darth Wiki, the dark version of articles.
-Cupcake: Sugar Wiki.

What are these things at the bottom of articles?
Those are indexes. You can click on the links in an index to go to the next or previous article in the index, or you can click on the link to the index and go to the index's article itself. From the index page, you can see and click on other tropes listed in the index.

I don't know what to search!
Enter these trope names in the search bar:
Applied Phlebotinum
Fanservice
Fetish Fuel
Guns and Gunplay Tropes
Nightmare Fuel
Videogames of Note
Video Game Tropes

That's all for now!
Happy browsing!
