TV Tropes is a wiki, built on a PM wiki platform^[2], that collects and expands on various conventions and devices found within creative works. Since starting in 2005, the site has gone from covering only TV and Movie "tropes" to those in a number of other mediums.^[1] The site is known for approaching topics in a somewhat comic tone, author Bruce Sterling once describing it's style as "Wry fanfic analysis".^[3]
