Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

Honestly, the fact that it exists at all. "X never happened!" Well, guess what? IT DID HAPPEN. And it's so, SO not a big deal. It's fiction. The world has not ended because some people didn't like the conclusion of Avatar: The Last Airbender or the epilogue of Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows. Devolving into a rant about how it was DUMB and STUPID and how anyone who likes it is dumb and stupid just makes you look silly.
OP here: I rescind my statement. Up until now I had never seen a piece of fiction I hated vehemently enough to apply discontinuity to it... however, I have recently read Mockingjay, and I totally get it now. It's still pretty dumb, though.
Mockingjay wasn't that bad. Vastly weaker than the first two, certinly, but not bad enough to justify completely ignoring it.
