Please use this thread to request locks of articles that are deleted via the Cut List. The following types of locks are generally permitted:
- Work articles created in the wrong namespace.
- Banned subpages, like Headscratchers for a trope or YMMV for a creator.
- Work articles banned under the Content Policy.
The following types of locks are generally rejected unless the page is problematic for other reasons:
- Potentially valid subpages that were cut for having no content.
- Articles cut for being stubs or for being improperly launched from YKTTW.
Note that we do not add all cut articles to the Permanent Redlink Club, only those that a user might expect to find and be surprised that they do not exist.

They (at least in theory) are held to the same standards as Darth Wiki pages. It's just that gushing is less likely to attract flamewarring/nattering.

The new It Just Bugs Me!
Just curious, is it possible to un-redlink X Just X when it's not on the main wiki? It's useful in discussions.
Rhymes with "Protracted."

That's a thing coded in the parser. It's something Eddie would have to do, and I don't think it's likely to be a high priority.

No, it's not. (My opinion.)

Okay Guy
Just don't link it. It's like saying the "This is the new I Am Not Making This Up" instead of "This is the new I Am Not Making This Up.

I see the Awesomeness.
Or possibly in edit reasons?
You're aware that X Just X is not a trope, it's an administrivia about examples with no real content. The trope that's likely to see abuse that way is No. Just... No.

Fight smart, not fair.
Okay Guy
Yes. I know X Just X is a not a trope. But it was blue linked at one point right?
Maybe we should have a special redirect that would blue link it?

People apparently used it as a trope. It was redlinked to avoid that.

Actually, it's down to 38 wicks, if I go delete them, can we blueshift it again?/

Okay, all non appropriate references to X Just X deleted. Several are correct, but most are search engine bugs. One was mistaking it for a legitimate trope (I'm Jack, just Jack.)

That's an Eddie thing. He's busy at the moment but I'll bring up the issue when he gets done with his current project.

Yes, it's a legitimate Administrivia page. Perhaps all Administrivia pages should have a special color so that people know they're not supposed to link to them on the main wiki?
Also, changed it a bit in Sandbox.X Just X to be non-work specific and added two more examples of ways it can be used.
Edit again, wait, that goes in the locked pages thread, I'll go paste it there.

Could you at least turn The New Woody Woodpecker Show page into a redirect to the main Woody Woodpecker article? I seriously doubt it's going to get enough tropes to warrant splitting off into its own page.
Could be worse
Done
I don't know if a Red Link pre-emptive is done, but can you put eBaum's World on the Permanent Redlink Club, due to its potential as a vandal/troll target?
Lost in Space
I think I'll wait on that until/unless someone actually creates it. I don't see the value in preemptively redlinking a standard wiki page just on the chance that it might be a troll target.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"
Can we do the main redirect kill thing on Narm?
Lost in Space
Narm is already locked and just needs a cut.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"How about giving Most Triumphant Example the same treatment as Wall Banger? It's a pure fan-myopic Gushing outlet.

Can you demonstrate consensus? This thread is for taking action on the really obvious stuff or for when we've sufficiently discussed changes.

Read the page. It is based on personal opinion, like DMOS. Linking to it causes nothing but trouble. Please kill it.
It's not inflammatory like Darth Wiki stuff is, though.

Infinite Tree: an experimental storyI purged a whole bunch of wicks for it a while back, and as a whole, they were overwhelmingly tasteless. It was only being used as gushy Hyperboloid chaff.

If we haven't I think it's worth PRLCing TroperTales.O Ring Orifice. It just seems to me like it'll wind up as a Distaff Counterpart (or colorectal fascimile) to TroperTales.Bigger Is Better In Bed.
Out eating the neighbors' tax forms, should be back soon.
