The TV Tropes Archive - bunch of stuff archived from before their deletion.

This list will grow; check back often.

The order is pretty much random right now.

• If you're looking for a specific article, try typing its URL into the Wayback Machine (http://archive.org/web/web.php).

The whole enchilada

• A backup of all articles, as of May-June 2012. Available at the Internet Archive (700 MB zipped); more precisely, the files can be downloaded here.
  • The glorious Archive Team also made a backup of their own in Sep 2012.

Cut pages

• A number of pages and examples cut due to The Second Google Incident. (This includes the former Rape Tropes, deleted abruptly in June.) They aren't made available here, as this might be a violation of content policy (better safe than sorry.) Contact me if you want a list.
