I'm the creator of the Honest Trailers page. Basically, I didn't see any reason for including a laconic when the title sums it up just fine. They're brutally honest trailer parodies. This is already obvious, so it doesn't need a laconic to clarify it. It's redundant to have it.

When something is called "honest", one usually thinks that it's the real thing. Not a parody. I mean, if I look at this page, would I expect it to be a collection of trailers or a parody of trailers?
Also, "redundancy" is usually not a good reason for cutting something; "causes damage in some way" is a better one, but it's not the case here.

Re cut: Hrmm - bizarre cut reason, considering that WebVideo.Honest Trailers is not a page about honest trailers and work pages can get laconics. Also, the laconic was blanked when only one word was wrong.
I restored the laconic with the problem word fixed. I don't think there is any other reason for cutting this page.
