Should articles like these - e.g. WhamEpisode.RealLife - a now-deleted article - (with the exception of villainy-related ones which have had the "real life" section be deleted) be moved to the Darth Wiki side of TV Tropes, where there are [noreallife] in the page.

Obviously not for all tropes, but for some where there's real life examples - and it's a compromise between No Real Life Examples Please as mentioned in here.

WhamEpisode/RealLife could be undeleted, and moved, then renamed to Turning Points and moved to the Darth Wiki, or there even be a new trope called Turning Points in the main namespace, but for in-universe or television/radio/web original-related examples of turning points for a series (not quite the same as a Wham Episode - not sure how this could work, but the turning points would be for things on a technical level (e.g. first HD episode, first change from film to tape etc.) possibly.

Is moving things to the Darth or Sugar Wiki for some [noreallife] tropes a possibility, rather than cutting them out entirely (obviously not with villainy tropes, since we can't call real people villains).

Just a thought I had, open for opinions.

Not when cutting them entirely is an option.

I don't see any benefit to keeping them on the Darth Wiki.

Neither do I. And you might want to take it up with the other cleanup threads on the topic of Real Life examples.

@OP: Darth Wiki is not simply a dumping ground for anything not considered acceptable on the main site, in spite of more than a few thinking it is and treating it as such. The NRLEPed sections don't belong there, either.
