Maybe it could be one of those redlinks that actually does have a page (in this case, maybe a redirect)? Best of both worlds, that way.

I'll PM Fast Eddie about doing that.
I didn't write any of that.

Did you ever get a reply?
Avatars may be subject to change without notice.
I'd say just leave Completely Missing The Point links as broken links. The way many of them were used was broken to begin with.

Try again?
This thread keeps flying off the radar. I'll try to get Fast Eddie's attention on the Faux-redlink thing.
You're not wrong. This has been rebumped roughly once a month since JULY. Is Fast Eddie the only one who can (faux-)redlink a trope?
Yes.
God knows how long his admin development queue is (never mind moderator-jobbing)

Since the only thing left is the faux-red link, I'll close this. Eddie knows about the request, presumably it's on his to-do list.
Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.
Crown Description:
Completely Missing The Point is currently massively misused as a complaining gateway, or as "anyone missing the point about anything at any time." This trope is really supposed to be a humor trope in which someone misses a glaringly obvious point no matter how often it's brought up. What should be done about this? (Note: feel free to add pros and cons.)
Oh bugger.
It has 24 thousand inbound links.
I didn't write any of that.
