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.
Also, he's now lurking on the page, actively trying to stop anyone from fixing it by checking it out every time he runs down the clock on the edit reservation thing. Bleh. Looks like a crazy man's sockpuppet to me!
And, he continues to edit-war to keep it his way.
Now it's another edit war with Agronac919.

If only I had the power to lock pages...
Is Chris a Creator? I can see this page being put on the Cutlist and locked to prevent this crap.

It's one of those case of a creator page that is in actuality entirely about the works, and thus should be in another namespace, like WebVideo/. Thus the YMMV page is warranted, since it's mostly about the works.
Seriously, what the hell? Banned EVERYONE involved.

That sounds a little overkill? A bunch of users were trying to restore actual neutrality and erase false claims (such as that the subject saying in the video that he directed a feature film despite him never saying anything like that) and were working from the discussion page, while the elijahprice2000 was just spamming page-timeouts to hold up his hatedom position.

Indeed. One crazy jerk stirring up stuff is not an edit war.
Well, if someone would tell me who was doing what, I'll be happy to fix it.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"
elijahprice2000, almost certainly a sockpuppet of the guy who just got banned for edit warring on the same page, kept deleting the more-neutral content to replace with his own, with the only edit reason being "fixing errors," and a number of other people kept trying to stop him. Along the way, he *also* regularly edit-froze the page by clicking the button and running down the clock.
They are banned now. Turns out that proxies are not in fact a good disguise for sockpuppetry.

After both warrers on YMMV.Chris Stuckmann got suspended, another troper from the discussion page tried rewriting it for a proper neutral tone, but there's a new account with no prior edits showing in history reposting the hate version (and sitting on page lock). Could the mods please check if there's something fishy going there?
