You can easily find my account under the reviews page. And, as Nesh said, we do have some history with TVT. (Though I, personally, was not around then.)
I’ll try to help out!

I've been editing their page on us lately in an effort to get examples of more recent content the community has made on there, and the current state of said page is... not ideal. Lots of examples just saying a character is some trope without explaining what about them makes the trope, or not providing quite enough context for somebody unfamiliar with our writings to understand why they are an example of the trope. I've been fixing and improving what I can, but it's a large effort for just one person.
Really, many of the issues with the page seem to stem from most of its development taking place over a decade ago. Much of the page as it currently stands was created in 2011 or prior, when TV Tropes' standards for what makes for a good example were much lower than they are now. There's been additional development on the page since, but it's been several years since the last time anyone really focused on sprucing it up.
It would be nice to have additional input and insight on making our page on there the best it can be.
I edited the main page a bit, fixing zero-context examples and indentation.

The last time a group of PPCers tried to update our TVT presence and make it more broadly representative (as opposed to being based mainly on the edits of a couple people citing their own works), we got accused of whitewashing, and some people even got banned. That might have something to do with why we haven't touched it since. I hope your attempt is looked on more kindly by the TVT admins.

but I've refrained from troping any of my content in order to avoid revenge-flames and such.
