Did an entry just vanish?

It's probably not high in the priority list, but still...

So I was making this entry on Unpublished Works called G.U.T.S.. It has both the main entry and characters entry. Both were fine and existed together.

I checked today and the G.U.T.S. entry is missing, as though it ceased to exist! Is it because I asked for a custom title? I asked for GUTS to become G.U.T.S., and yesterday asked for the character page from GUTSCharacters to become GUTS Characters with periods.

When an article "vanishes", as you put it, check the Recent Cuts page.

cut requested: 9th Aug
cut date: 11th Aug
Article was cut. There may be discussion here.

Stub work page (being unpublished doesn't make a tropeless work page more useful) in wrong namespace; creator was messaged and never fixed anything.

That cut reason is half wrong, FYI, because DarthWiki/ is the namespace of choice for unpublished works.

The point about it being a stub is probably still valid, and if someone did PM you about it...

It was me who cutlisted that article, after messaging you, Ookamikun. By the way, the parenthese in the cut reason was my argument on why the same policy applied to published works regarding the presence of tropes should be applied to unpublished ones.

If so, I never received a message. Weird. I'll fix that then.
