Okay, I went up from the first edit on the 20th to Anti-Anti-Christ. Got all of it and did a little bit of other stuff if I caught it. Guy had a serious hate on for Whately Universe.
Fight smart, not fair.No, I was wrong — all of them need to be checked. He's been yanking Whateley Universe examples all along.
Okay, I'll do October.
October is done.

Fight smart, not fair.I grabbed a few more pages. I didn't find any other vandalism to the best of my knowledge.
Fight smart, not fair.Not to disparage the good work (seriously, great work), but at least one reverted edit as vandalism was a good removal (although the intent is debatable). The example removed from Allergic to Evil was genuinely not an example of the trope and shouldn't have been restored.

Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.
If that is the case, when you removed the example did you explain that in the edit reason? Most of the time when people are repairing vandalism they are more interested in restoring the page to its original state than in assessing the examples. And sometimes when I am repairing vandalism I don't know anything about the subject, just trying to get the paint off the wall.
When I restored the deletion, I did. But it seems like restoring all edits made by a person without considering them falls under the category of "Bad Idea." Just because 99% of a person's edits are vandalism doesn't mean that the other 1% can't have merit.
Note I'm not accusing anyone here, it just baffled the hell out of me this morning when I checked my watchlist and a perfectly good deletion was reverted with the edit reason being "reverting vandalism."

A vandal was reported in Ask The Tropers earlier for removing examples from pages. Here is the link to the edits that need to be fixed. [1]
. I fixed Cat Smile through Sword Fight but my eyes are crossing.
Any one up for helping out?
The vandal has been banned, so no worries there.
