Hail knights and writers! Looks like I found another really interesting stuff.

I guess I've learned a lot from this table. If you don't consider taking a look (simply because of the words "periodic" and "table"), it's kind of a pity missing something awesome as this.

I do not own any content from the page, and I do not own any rights of publishing this as my own work. I'm merely sharing this for the love of writing.

This table, though concise,

This table, though concise, is still missing.

Adding the tropes on bad writing would be a start.

If anyone's curious as to what any of them mean, head over to tvtropes.org and input any of those building blocks you see to find the trope mentioned. I only glanced at it, I'll look into it a bit more later.

Nice! Thanks for sharing it with us!

Indeed, I agree that the table is never complete. There are so many elements in writing and storytelling, a physical table cannot possibly contain all of them.
