Because it's Star Wars related, I say lock it.

b3900 is uncommenting the entry without having gone to discussion first. Since the entry in question has been warred over repeatedly, what other action do I have as a troper?

First thing, if you haven't done it yet might be a Deleting YMMV notifier. It wasn't exactly deleted but it's the closest thing other than a more direct and explanatory pm

Alternatively, leave the entry commented out but move it to discussion yourself. Maybe do a null edit with the reason being used to point folks to the discussion

Suspended them too, but I think the page notice needs to explain a bit better why the examples are commented out.

And lock the YMMV page for now until further notice.
