Band Geek was launched in October 2015 with no apparent YKTTW. There was no activity from July 2016 until this week, when I came across it. It had no examples on the main page so I added a few.

However, the page doesn't explain the concept enough. Is it using the stereotype that band students are geeky? Is it just about band students period?

The page currently has 15 wicks.

Given the lack of an "official" launch, this should be sent back to TLP so we can figure out what it is.

I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.

Do tropers have to manually send it back or is that a mod thing? I agree with sending it back, fyi.

It's a mod thing, but I think they need to find it in the launch list? [EDIT: [down] Figures I read something wrong, LOL.] This being launched in 2015 it might be easier to make a sandbox?

I think I already said this in the crash rescue thread, but I think there is something useable here as a Characters as Device trope (maybe). (I'm also voting to send it back, or the next best thing whatever's easier.)

[up] Mods have an easier means to send a draft back. Non-mods, meanwhile, have a more laborious means to do the same thing.

Edit: Since there's no associated draft on its record, we may have to do the manual method.

Do we really need to send this back, though? Honestly, it seems alright, other than a dearth of examples.

EDIT: Just added a few and tweaked the description to mention the "geek" part of the trope.

I think this needs examples, not a rewrite, other than maybe a few tweaks.

Agreed, thus why I made a few tweaks and added a few examples.

The issue has been resolved, right?

At least it's more fleshed out.

Adding to Tropes Needing Examples, since I'm sure there might be more laying about. If examples are all that's needed, we can close this.
