It seems we have this twice: Once as Creator.Nathan Cameron and once as DarthWiki.Nathan Cameron. The pages don't seem to differ very much, so this is not like Eversion where the multiple pages have a justification.

Unfortunately I know nothing about this creator, and as the history tells me, since at least back in 2011 all edits are just maintenance, nothing more. Which means that the page creator may have disappeared from TV Tropes.

I wonder if this is a TRS topic, or just basic maintenance and policy-checking. Anyway.

I'm also kind of leery about the second half of it, since "outside of the show" seems to indicate it's about troping real people. It's one thing to trope how people are portrayed in a show, even if they are (mostly) real, but that section seems to specifically exclude that.

But yeah, the Darth Wiki version doesn't seem to do anything concerning that part of the wiki.

According to the system revert history, the Creator.Nathan Cameron page was created in 2012 by movie007. Looking at the corresponding version of DarthWiki.Nathan Cameron I see that there was an older almost identical version there.

In other words, the Darth Wiki page is the original version. I'll ask ~movie007 on why they copied the article into Creator/ while leaving the Darth Wiki article alone.

If you ask me, my guess would be: Once there was an article in Main/ which was moved to the Creator namespace. The Creator article looks like it has more tropes, and more elaborated ones too.

The mainspace system revert history is empty, so if there was an article, it must have been before the 10:54:45 7th Feb '12.
