Soooo, I got back from work today, and after dinner, I eventually look this page back up. However, it seems that the Pre-Fight Banter section has been completely nuked, as its sub-page results in this message:
"Note: This page was cut for reason: What's with Netherrealm games and people copying every single fight quote onto this site? At least they confined the nonsense to one page this time so we can just cut it all."
I can't use the page's History section to recover what's been nuked, and there isn't a discussion page on the Pre-Fight Banter subpage where I can find out who went ahead with this, so can someone find out who nuked this page, and restore it? I don't think I can rewrite it all just from memory.

What the hell? We didn't copy EVERYTHING from every single fight quote, there's nearly 10 hours of content and that can't fit on an entire page. We restricted it to funny ones, no? Ones with roasts, sarcasm, that kinda stuff?
Jesus fuck, ya'll are no fun. The best we can do is put it back here and try to re-add what was lost after it was moved.

I hope by “Ya’ll”, you’re not including me, as I only saw what happened, and copy-pasted the message left on the page, before even that got deleted (“Don’t shoot the messenger” and all that). I need to leave for work this morning soon, so I won’t be able to help with the Pre-Fight Banter section for a while.
I guess it’s a bit too much to hope that somebody copy-pasted that entire page worth of one-liners before some killjoy(s) nuked it, but I hope at least most of it gets restored soon...
Yeah, I didn't mean you, sorry. I wonder who gave the OK, given that there were five people working on it and none of us were consulted.
Guess those were cases of Zero-Context Example. Can be fixed putting them back with a bullet telling the context.

Good news, guys: I managed to get lucky and a part of the pre-fight banter page was saved on my Android tablet, and I managed to save the webpage itself to my e-mail. I'll put a Pastebin link later with what was in there, if anyone wants it back.

As to be expected, there are plenty of hilarious Brutalities. The problem is, should they be grouped in the Fatalities folder, the Gameplay/Other folder, or a new folder just for themselves? Personally, I would go for either the 1st or 3rd option, as I feel that the Gameplay/Other section is already pretty broad and the amount of Brutalities would really clutter it up. Also, should the Brutality victory poses be counted as part of the Brutalities themselves, or should they be listed separately?

My first choice would be to merge with Fatalities and rename the folder "Finishing moves" or "Fatalities and Brutalities". As for the victory poses, they should go in the same entry as the brutalities themselves.
During the end round taunt when Johnny backs up and hits a microphone, he no longer says, "Augh! You flock of fucks!" He now says, "Ugh! You buncha of idiots!" Do you think I should change it or keep the old one?
