| 50 | ** If the Administrivia/PermanentRedLinkClub is any indication, there ''were'' pages that were indeed So Bad, They Were Horrible themselves, but through their self-demonstration, they reduced the quality of the wiki, some of which, like [=Horrible/Fanfic=] violated [[Archive/TheGoogleIncident content rules]] and the Administrivia/RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement, so they had to be cut. |

| 161 | ** If a subtrope led to an issue with the parent trope that resulted in the parent trope getting cut, this ''might'' count. |
| 162 | * OvershadowedByControversy |
| 163 | ** Given that [[Administrivia/PermanentRedLinkClub some pages were so controversial they were eventually cut forever]], this isn't entirely out of the question. |

Therefore SelfDemonstratingArticle is a self-demonstrating article, proving the assumption true. Now, let's assume that any such article ''doesn't'' self demonstrate. Therefore SelfDemonstratingArticle is not self-demonstrating, and the assumption is again true.[[/note]] |
