All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XII

[Black Aeronaut]

Categories on wiki can also work as tags.

To find - let's say - the 1960 film The Time Machine on ATT without using the search bar, go to the category page "Film". It'll show sub-categories like "Films of the 1960s" (in "Films by decade"), "Science Fiction Films" (in "Film Genres") and "Films Based on Novels" (in "Films Based on Works").

Argh.  It's close.  But what I'm after is the ability to generate a sort of 'cross referencing' search where you can look for specific tropes based on a content tag within a set category.

For example, yes, you know you're after a 1960s film, but you're after a specific trope that in employed in that film.  And in fine human fashion, your brain is having a memetic recall failure on both the trope and the name of the film.

But I guess the current category system could work if you could cross-reference them.
