This is not a trope. It's a chair.

"Swimming Pool found in: 10 articles, excluding discussions."

I think we're fine cutting.

Edit: Mixed up the linking/title fields. Fixed the link. I feel like an idiot.

I think there's something there—it talks about how if its not going to played for fanservice, its completely deserted, and so on—but it doesn't seem to know what its doing. Throw it back to YKTTW.

Fixed the title. Buh? Next thing we'll have a trope on Street Signs. Cut.

Anyway, we already have Pool Scene, as the article itself acknowledges. What matters is the narrative significance, not that there happens to be a pool.

I think that this one was intended to follow the mold of the Hollywood X tropes here; common misrepresentations of swimming pools. I don't know that it's worth saving though.

Cut. Even if it was supposed to be a reasonable article, it's not. If we wind up with enough tropes involving swimming pools, there could be an index or something, but "swimming pools are a thing" is not worth mentioning.

Do we need a crowner to cut?

For cutting, I think a crowner would be for if there is strong disagreement. So far that doesn't seem to be the case.

I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.

Don't see anything worth salvaging here and it's one of only a few tropes I've seen accused of PSOC that fits the definition exactly. Cut it.
