These are not tropes in and of themselves, rather being commentary on how tropes are approached for various purposes within the wiki. But if they are not tropes, what are they? Useful Notes? And as advice/guidelines, do they belong in the project namespace?
I'd consider them "meta-tropes". While not tropes in and of themselves in most situations, they are commentary on the use of tropes and thus fall into that weird useful notes/trope page hybrid area.
