Where in the guidelines does it say that allusions can be vague tropes? And where did the admin say that? And that thread is talking exactly about this situation. See what I just quoted from it above. OOT did not say that an allusion was "any trope that appears in the show." Take a look at the allusions page. The allusions are all "Character did a, which is similar to b from specific media c." None of them are "Character did a, which is similar to b which is in a lot of shows." Pacifica was shown to have a target with Mabel's face on it in Gideon Rises. A lot of shows have that. Yet it is not on the "list of allusions" page. Again, TV Tropes.
