Delete mostly negative work pages?

First off, I'm relatively new to the forums, so I might hve made a mistake.

Now onto the main issue: detailed analysis of bad fiction is one of the things I find funniest on this wiki, but considering general wiki consensus on tone as of late, I propose deleting work pages that are mostly negative. That mean pages for The Room, Twilight and My Immortal should be straight-up gone and locked unless they have more nice things than bad things to say about the works.

While the concern is understandable, There Is No Such Thing as Notability prevents us from deleting works just because they're poorly recieved. When the page's tone is the problem, it can be added to Works That Require Cleanup of Complaining or just locked without the cut. And if you don't like those works or don't intend to edit them, then that's fine, there's plenty of pages on works which are considered good and critically acclaimed.

The proper way to deal with negativity is through this cleanup thread, not the Cut List. Locking because if those pages were lost causes, the thread I linked to would have declared them as such years ago.
