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

Looks like a permalock is imminent. Sigh... GIFT is just lovely, innit?

Frankly, I see only a couple of arguments about this recent "rape" thingy? Nothing that flags the whole page as lock-worthy.

[up] The most recent edits to the page are pretty bad.

Not a PewDiePie watcher, etc., but he did recently lose contracts
for making antisemitic remarks (both are weblinked articles on the subject for reference - one of them is from Forbes, which probably says something about the significance of this). The incident in general is pretty recent, but thought I'd at least provide some extra context to go with the potential concerns.
The state of the page isn't too bad so far. Some recent back and forths yes, but no large scale edit war yet. Depends on whether or not we want to trope the recent controversy and how much it has to do with the body of work.
I only see a few edits, and the most recent ones from after Disney/Maker announced they were dropping him don't look lock-worthy to me.
The one stickler is the most recent edit that got removed in a reedit. Keep an eye on that in the event of an Edit War.

have gotten strange too.

Um, wouldn't troping the controversy fall under Real Life troping?

Yes. Please remove any examples having to do with RL controversies about a creator or their work. We are not interested.

Yeesh, the last few edits are getting rather heated; while no out and out personal attacks that I can see at a glance, there is a definite edge of annoyance with other tropers in the edit reasons. Mods may need to intervene with a note that we're very much not interested in troping the controversy of the hour, and/or lock the page
Eh, one mention of Overshadowed by Controversy should suffice.

It would appear that salvadorfranz is editing with something of an agenda (removing anything negative about PDP regarding the controversy and adding in claims of unanimous support).
