I think the examples for the 10th Doctor are all misconstrued and bad, which is weird for a character that does have dark moments. He didn't make Harriet Jones lose her job because she "showed him up", he did it because she massacred a retreating enemy after he solved the problem. Di LP is also supposed to be about fans making a character seem morally better than they are in canon and the 10th Doctor is already shown to be a pretty heroic person. Whoever wrote this seems to be someone who personally dislikes this Doctor and his popularity, rather than someone who thinks he's an antihero fans are misinterpreting.

Uh, yeah. Cut that. It's not Draco in Leather Pants, it's a real-life example of someone going Ron the Death Eater.

Should we rewrite the Grant Ward entry to be a bit more netural and condensed? I'm saying that because iirc a lot of people on the #Stand With Ward hashtag claim to be abuse survivors and claim the media has always portrayed abuse survivors negatively and this was one of the reasons they want Ward to be redeemed.
Unless there is evidence that they were faking the whole "we're abuse survivors" thing to justify their DILP behavior I think that should be rewritten.

Should we keep the Morarity example? I'm a part of the Sherlock fan, and most of the fans love him for, "love to hate" at worst their try to gave him a
tragic past(which to be fair, we don't know anything....other then him murdering a child.) But I never really saw, anyone try to turn him into a
harmless puppy or a saint. I can not speak for the shippers, since I don't really ship him with anyone though.
Ba'al from Star Gate, Spike from Buffy, Francis Urquhat from House Of Cards and Darken Rahl from Seeker were originally intended to be evil and sexy. Fangirls redeeming them with the Power of Love and making them sexy and good is only ONE step away from the original character concept. They belong in a separate trope.
Draco and Snape are written as ugly and evil. Fangirls change TWO alignments of their characters.
Daemon Targaryen (and, to a somewhat lesser extent, Aemond Targaryen) from House of the Dragon, to an almost literal degree. The show-runners are constantly wondering where they went wrong that so many people are calling a guy who takes pleasure in killing a ridiculous amount of people in the show, including common-folk, slaves and *his wife*. They don't seem to realize what happens when you give fans an entitled, sadistic, blond and British dude - who happens to wear literal leather trousers and also is called a dragon.
