Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread
for ongoing cleanup projects.
Wow, likely vandalism. Bte, the person to stop is called Starbound 2. Will now work on repair.
ETA: Seems that Tropers/Dragon_Ranger already cleaned up most of it, I caught his last 3-4 edits.
Removing EDIT: Ninja'd by the 'Cat.

Thank you for the prompt support. I think a ban might be too harsh though, the Troper in question has some personal issues he needs to deal with badly.

Suspended. Personal issues are not a get out of jail free card
Just for additional info: Starbound also cutlisted the Daring Do page despite over 15000 inbound links, apparently solely due to the MLP connection. He does admit to having issues, but that still isn't an excuse for creating work for everybody else.

Really? The cutting reason was "Do we really need several pages devoted to an in-universe MLP fic that doesn't even exist?". That starts to look like an issue-tic Hatedom to me.
And of course, going on a deletion spree is not OK.

This might be a really bad idea, but I'm wondering if it might be worth considering whether those who are bounced and permabanned could buy back their account. For ten dollars donated to TV Tropes would it be worth allowing pests back in with the understanding that they're gone again if they misbehave?

I cannot see any possible way that could be a good idea.
They can start a new account, and try to act like decent tropers. That's how it works for the rest of us.
I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.
^ Ain't that ban evasion, punishable by an instant ban?
^^Yes, that would be ban evasion. It makes much more sense to appeal the ban via email.

And besides, making people pay 10bux (as Something Awful puts it) just seems weird for this sort of place.

ninjaclown and Jteeth alerted me to this recent
mass-deletion of pony entries on numerous wiki articles without prior discussion. Could we request some entry restoring/cleanups and further assistance on this matter? Filed under Western Animation because ponies are under that category even though the mass edits happen all over.
