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

I'd try The Wayback Machine.

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynmancut page for the Straw Hat Pirates YMMV page, had individual entries for each of the Straw Hat Pirates
YMMV pages for "Major Allies", "Major Villains", and "The Marines" were also cut, amongst many others.
I noticed that someone recently deleted all the YMMV pages for the One Piece character pages. This had been discussed before, since apparently that is a bit excessive, and all YMMV tropes should simply go in the single YMMV page for the whole manga. While I appreciated these separate YMMV pages for each character group page, since it made it much easier to navigate and look at YMMV entries for individual characters, I understand why having multiple pages of such might be excessive.
But likewise, it seems a bit excessive in turn to just delete all those pages, seemingly with no way to retrieve the YMMV entries on those pages. That was quite a bit of troping work over many years that is now just gone. If there is a way to retrieve those entries, if only to at least move them to the main YMMV page for One Piece, it would be great to know.
