Re: Hellsing. I went through and started cleaning. I got down to the end of H before I quit. I'll have another go in a while.

Fight smart, not fair.The Real Life section of Balkanize Me has a lot of unnecessary second and third level bullet points. Most of the content is okay, it just needs to be formatted to meet the indentation rules.
We claim the land for the highlord, God bless the land and the hiiighlooord!All Animals Are Domesticated Real Life section is overflowing with natter(despite attempts by me to stop it)
have a listen and have a link to my discord serverI fixed All Animals Are Domesticated by removing the Real Life section entirely.
Currently taking a break from the site. See my user page for more information.Lost Forever is choked with thread and walkthrough modeing. I took a whack at a few of the entries, but I'm not familiar enough with most of the examples to know what simply needs a rewrite and what needs to feel the warm loving embrace of the weedwhacker.
EDIT: Mental note: potholes do NOT work in the edit reasons. (*self-dopeslap*)

Someone did tell me life was going to be this way.There's a lot of Natter and Justifying Edits in the Character Sheet of Total Drama Island. One troper even seemed to re-add a long Justifying Edit. Not sure how to approach that.

I started on Lost Forever. I got through final fantasy.
Good lord, I think the Star Trek natter on Prime Directive is longer than the rest of the article! Killing it with fire, though I'll try to use a controlled burn... :)
"And for the first time in weeks, I felt the boredom go away!"Bullying a Dragon Real life folder is overflowing with natter.
have a listen and have a link to my discord serverLast time I went to denatter an RL section, in regards to Conspiracy Theorist (starting here
), Fast Eddie went and nuked the entire folder not ten minutes later.
(edit) So this time I beat him to the punch and zapped it, quoting his post in the discussion page for the trope.

All your safe space are belong to TrumpOnly Six Faces has a lot of justifying edits and other unnecessary high-level bullet point commentary.
We claim the land for the highlord, God bless the land and the hiiighlooord!The Nightmare Before Christmas has too much natter for a work page.
have a listen and have a link to my discord serverSpotlight-Stealing Squad is an unfortunate combination of Thread Mode meets License To Whine.

Hocus Pocus has a lot of stuff that's on the borderline, and I'm not really sure what to get rid of and what to keep. (I did dump the comment asking if Disney took "stupid pills," though.)
That's Feo . . . He's a disgusting, mysoginistic, paedophilic asshat who moonlights as a shitty writer—Something AwfulLots and lots of Natter in the Real Life section of Critical Existence Failure , but I don't know enough about drugs and guns to be able to clean it up and save what's worth saving.
If it helps, I've read quite a bit that indicates that this is true:
The idea of "stopping power" or "hitting power" as far as firearm cartridges are concerned is mostly a myth. Most bullets simply don't have the momentum to stop a target "in their tracks" for purely mechanical reasons.
If you hit a major blood-bearing organ or sever a major blood vessel, the victim will likely lose function in seconds due to rapid blood pressure drop. Otherwise, they will probably be physically able to function normally for one or several minutes until they bleed out. The incapacity to function sometimes observed has been attributed to the psychological/shock effects of being shot, and round caliber has no impact on these effects. This doesn't really fit Critical Existence Failure - unless you stop the bleeding, you die either way, it's just a matter of time; you're not just fine until you take one more injury; you are dying from the first blood-losing injury as soon as it happens, it's just a matter of how long it takes.
From the other wiki
:
The momentum of the so-called "manstopper" .45 ACP bullet is approximately that of a 1 pound (0.45 kg) mass dropped from a height of 11.4 feet (3.5 m).[9][note 1] Such a force is simply incapable of arresting a running target's forward momentum.
Honestly, this is one of those real-life sections I just don't find interesting personally. If it were my very own wiki, I would cut the whole thing.

Searching for plausible mechanisms.You know how we don't like nattery Real Life sections? Well, the entirety of Acceptable Nationality Targets is one!
Sorry for double posting, but I just finished zapping most of the natter and complaining in Spotlight-Stealing Squad.
Did I do alright? I'm fairly new at this sort of thing. I'll probably need to give it another once-over.

There are apparently two very different interpretations of Kurt Vonnegut's Mother Night. I haven't read Vonnegut, so I don't feel I'm qualified to say whether we should remove one or both interpretations from the page.
That's Feo . . . He's a disgusting, mysoginistic, paedophilic asshat who moonlights as a shitty writer—Something AwfulCan someone with more knowledge of general media go through the natter of Big-Lipped Alligator Moment? I think I've sorted out the Live-Action TV section.

Is it consensus that fandom tropes are subjective? If it is, then they should be added to the YMMV index. Am I allowed to add stuff to the index?
