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.
Oh, by the way, none of the pages (the main page and the stories with links) are indexed.
I did my own search with Universe 11 N on MSN, and got nothing. The only links I find are on Google, and they lead back to TV Tropes.

I found a Nathan Thornsbury that has a connection to an author, but he's an 11th grader somewhere and he's not an author (the author in the article I found is Rick Riordan, the author of the Percy Jackson novels).
The next links with my search "Nathan Thornsbury Author" lead back here.
Sounds like someone else troping works that exist only in their heads or in personal files.
Either cut or move to Unpublished Works in Darth Wiki.

Susoended. Let's get an explanation of where these works are before anyone puts any work into trying to fix the pages.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
He also has VideoGame.Marvel DC Crisis Of Infinite Brands which seems to be entirely made up. Other than a wikia site (solely edited by the author) there's no sign of this on the web.
The... optimism about that game also casts doubt on the veracity of his claim in the Edit/Banned thread about how there's a publisher who is planning on printing his books.

All the articles should either be cut or transplanted to Darth Wiki.

I'm transplanting the ones that at least have descriptions and some effort put into them (I've yet to look at all of them). Do unpublished works get Characters/ pages? (I know they don't get other subpages, but I want to check on that one before sending to the cutlist.)
Look at all that shiny stuff ain't they pretty
No, they do not get any subpages.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"
Based on the troper's edit history and the Literature/ hub page, I think I got all of them. I cut the stubs, Characters/ and Literature/ pages, and I moved the non-stubs to Darth Wiki/. I indexed the survivors on Unpublished Works. I dewicked the pages that just won't exist once they're cut.
Survivors:
Stubs sent directly to cut list (in case anybody wants to defend them or move them):

As for Gfyftg? His signature on the Edit Banned/Suspended thread makes me think HE'S the author. He even calls himself the "Creator of Universe 11N".
Wouldn't be the first time 'I have this friend' came up.
All we can do is see how he behaves.

I didn't touch the Video Game/ pages yet. The following is based on the troper's edit history. I think the only extant work was Batman: Arkham VR.
- Crusaders of the Lost Idols (stub, going to the cut list)
- Marvel DC Crisis Of Infinite Brands (kinda meaty, I'll move it to Darth Wiki/)
EDIT: Okay, Crusaders of the Lost Idols does exist. I added it to the cut list seeing that it was a stub (and after nine or ten pages for non-extant works, I jumped the gun). The Lost Idols game has accrued over 50 inbounds with 2 wicks since October 2016, so I actually think it should stay in order to be expanded. I mentioned the fact that it actually exists on the discussion page.

To everyone on this page, I have a clarification to make. This is Gfyftg, and yes, I am the author of said stories. The stories are not just head-canon but are actual novellas that I myself have written and am trying to get published officially. I wasn't aware that not yet released works are supposed to go onto the Darth Wiki, but now that I know that, I will be sure not to make the mistake again. As for the Marvel DC Video Game, that was also something that began of my own creation. It started as a family project that I made the Wikia for to let other people help create the game through crowd idea generation. Unfortunately, I have been the only person to edit it, because no one else has found the site and been willing to add to it.
Also, I realize now that I should have been more directly transparent with the fact that I was the author of the novels as well as the account holder making those pages, and I do apologize. I did not mean to take advantage of the TV Tropes site or its users, or cause any undue confusion in any way. I have always loved TV Tropes. If you decide to move them to the Darth Wiki, I completely understand, and I apologize for any confusion or inconvenience I may have caused.
EDIT: Also, the Rick Riordan article is old. I'm actually an outgoing senior and current college student now.

So I've actually had this on my watchlist for a while, but I want to see how I should move forward with this.
So Universe-11N
is a page that has a listing of random stories and shared tropes mad by Gfyftg
, whose entire editing history is solely of editing these story pages. The problem is that this page and the specific story ones are littered with spoiler tags, ZC Es, and just general editing issues.
Those problems aside, I did a quick Google search for all of the stories and "the young author Nathan Thornsbury". Nothing. None of this appears to exist anywhere on the internet.
I also think that the editor is the author of these stories, but I have no way of actually proving that.
How should I exactly proceed here? It's a large amount of pages, and I have no way of verifying that any of the tropes actually pertain to the story. Should I try to fix the pages and their issues? Cutlist them altogether? Move it to Darth Wiki?
