Wild Mass Cleanup

Actually, Wild Mass Guessing was brought up in the Real Life thread, and the vote was to keep real life examples. With that precedent established, I think we can keep "meta" examples for this trope.

So WMG.Life Of Boris is okay to keep? It's only entries are people trying to find out where Boris actually lives.

Cassie | he/they | But will it stop the pain forever? / I just can't be sure

This is from Cool Cat Saves the Kids:

Why else would this trash exist!?

I'm all but certain this is not allowed, regardless of the work's quality, or the controversy surrounding it.

All complaining, slice away.

On WMG.Star Trek Voyager, there is this:

From "The Gift", we see that the Doctor was responsible for both Seven's Spy Catsuit and her hair growth. Her... Borg Spheres go unexplained, but it's fairly obvious that she didn't have them as a drone.

Cab I cut it? I want to!

For every low there is a high.

Torch it, it's both creepy and disgusting.

From Clarence:

Whole show is actually based on Sonichu's Creator 'CWC' and most of adventures were could been if his super ego and his autism souldn't ruined his life.

Clarence's Step-dad (Chad) - He is loosey based on Chirs-Chan and he have most simliar name.

• Clarence - Look facially and almost Physically (Look at Clarence face compared to Chirs-Chan or one his "Parodies" Sammy) mostly uncanny to Chris-Chan and It's personality is somewhat simliar to Chirs-Chan's attention wore and still manchild like Chirs-Chan in real life, And also explains some episodes that he mentally high function Austistic-like "creative thinking".
• Clarence Mom - She acutally based Chirs-chan's majority of previously "Girlfriends".
• Jeff - Is actually Chris-Chan OCD, Obsessed on Sonic and other Manchild stuff like that Dream episode that Jeff have problems to be with Mentally stable students.
• Sumo - Chirs-Chan last remains of Chirs-Chan's sanity that he what could been.
• Belson Noles - Is mostly based that Chirs-Chan thinking of Wes Iseli (His "enemy"), See him as Bully.

The Location of Aberdale Is acutally not based from Scottdale put some elements from Chirs-chan's hometown at West Virgina, And pretend that take blame the other town's kids for "Ruining" his life.

I...have no words for this.

Zap the entire entry.

Done.

Codename: Kids Next Door

Numbuh 1 spends all his time ordering his team around and telling them what to do he always has to be on top of things (plus his parents don't exactly do to much to control him) so maybe in a sort of twisted way having someone else boss him around has become a fantasy and eventually a fetish that his prepubescent mind isn't capable of understanding and so caused him to seek out the most bossy girl he could find, there's also his supposed crush on Numbuh 362 she's certainly does spend a lot of time yelling at him... besides all that what else could he possibly see in Lizzy?

• She's the sexy character on the show!!!!
  LLS
• Fridge Brilliance: And who's another person the fandom likes to pair Nigel with? Numbuh 362. His boss.

This one feels out of place and needless to say, compared to the rest, is strange. Also that uhh... Comment about Lizzy. I'm not sure if it's meant to sound what it looks like of if the wording is just horribly, horribly wrong (and in both ways it is still disturbing). Either way I think it should be cut.

Not entirely sure about the Fridge Brilliance entry, though. Might be worth moving into the YMMV tab and changing the context of it to be less NSFW.

Sorry to bump this, but there's a bit on WMG.The Rocky Horror Picture Show that stinks of trolling someone who made a spelling mistake, likely from the Wild West days.

That's why all the potential sequels never got off the ground - they all counted on Bran and Janet being apart.

• BranxJanet OTP
• Does Brad know that Janet is cheating on him with some guy named "Bran"?
• I am now going to have to write a fanfic about Janet being in love with a guy named Bran...
• It's not a guy named Bran. Janet is in fact in a sexual relationship with corn bran, as in the cooking material.
• Look how far D and N are on your keyboard. My WMG is this is a troll entry.
  • YOU'RE a troll entry.
  • Now now, there is more than one keyboard layout in the world.
• YOUR FACE is a troll entry!
• Your MOM's a troll entry!
  • I'd put my troll in her, all right...
• Your mom's face is a troll entry!
• WHAT THE HELL HAPPENS ON THIS WIKI?!

  • BUT SERIOUSLY, Brad & Janet being destroyed is too depressing. This troper sees only "Rocky Horror" as canon, the other movie ideas were never made and this troper thinks Brad & Janet re-evaluated their lives and became a sex-positive couple in a loving "open" polyamorous marriage, finding balance between "absolute pleasure" and setting some boundaries. The Power of Love! It makes the movie more fun and "sex-positive" that way and those two really were uptight before getting stuck in the castle.

Permission to fix the typo and remove the garbage?

I'm torn. On one hand it's kind of funny, on the other hand it reeks of ancient TVT.

Current Project: Incorruptible Pure Pureness

The initial entry about two characters being "meant to be" is a sweet theory, and the idea that the sequels never got off the ground because they counted on the two characters being apart is insightful, if a bit meta. The last paragraph about how the pairing being destroyed is too depressing, and that the couple re-evaluated their lives and became a sex-positive couple instead is a great idea (minus the multiple uses of This Troper).

The rest is undiluted, festering nonsense that plunges headfirst into "2 + 2 = potato" levels of stupidity. It's full of natter, trolling, tropers flat-out arguing with each other, puerile Your Mom and "Your Face" jokes, and disgusting ideas such as a character being in a sexual relationship with corn bran. And the worst part? All of this spawned from a single typo (and people were probably aware it was unintentional).

I'd recommend fixing the typo, keeping the initial theory and reason intact, rewriting the last bullet point to remove This Troper and the "BUT SERIOUSLY" part, and obliterating everything else.

I’d say delete it.

Should we try to get a mod in here for an official ruling?

ETA: Holy shit, the last bit was added a week and a half ago. I'm going to PM the troper who added it to inform them we don't do First-Person Writing anymore.

ETA 2: Sent them a This Troper notifier with a custom postscript directing them here.

Looking at the history, it seems that back in 2010, the typo was corrected, but then changed back a few days later. Then a few months later, the typo was corrected again with the edit reason (potholes were in the edit reason as posted, including spelling), "Yes, someone would actually name thier kid "Bran" what." A month after that the typo was brought back again with the reason "That joke was funny." Again this was all in 2010-2011, I.e. when standards were lower.

Linking to ancient edit reasons doesn't work ATM. It just sends you to the top of the page.

Edited comment.

Nonetheless, the reasoning isn't very sound.

The typo that spawned all that nonsense was corrected a decade ago, and somebody undid the correction? Yeah, that WMG entry needs to be nuked (apart from the title and first bullet point).

If I had to guess, since the film screenings usually involve the audience commenting on things (haven’t seen the film myself, so I don’t know the full extent), the discussion might be trying to emulate that. Still think it’s inappropriate for WMG s and is a relic of looser quality restrictions back in the day.

Edit: Removed the natter, citing this thread.

I found this on WMG.Mork And Mindy. Is it too sexual? It grosses me out, but at the same time it kind of makes sense:

More specifically (spoilered because it's kinda Squicky): When Mork earned his red wings . Hey, the DNA had to come from somewhere. Mork was the one who was "pregnant" (he laid the egg) with Mearth. He laid the egg out his belly button, so the egg must have been developing in his stomach (or the Orkan equivalent thereof) beforehand. And it's implied that Mearth was conceived sexually. This is the most logical conclusion.

• As much as I really want to dispute this, I can't. Good call.

For every low there is a high.

I have found what may well be the most pointless WMG I've ever come across. This is from NeoQuest:

• Surprise, surprise!

- Oh mighty recursion!

I am pretty sure one can not concieve that way. Cut anyway.

"Listen up, Marina, because this is SUPER important. Whatever you do, don't eat th“ “DON'T EAT WHAT?! Your text box ran out of space!”

I'm not sure if WMG.Sponge Bob Square Pants Seasonal Rot Is kosher or not...

Thomas fans needed! Come join me in the the show's cleanup thread!

That sounds like a factory for complaining. The examples aren't much better. Torch it all via cut list.
