Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread
for ongoing cleanup projects.
As long as you don't add something twice, or remove it twice, you won't be edit warring.
Should we summon Omega or let the mods take care of them?

Edited by Bubblepig “Boom! Boomboom! Boomboomboom! Bakuage Tire! Gogogo!"^^ We'll cross that bridge when we get to it. For now, let's just revert what needs revertin'.
Apologies for the bump, but I was just scrolling through the wiki and remembered their name. They made an edit to Music.Overshadowed By Controversy adding Youtube links to MJ's entry, which I'm not sure is allowed.
^ And changing "his devoted fandom" to "his devoted fandom who question the validity of the accusations" which wouldn't be as questionable if this wasn't a pattern of behavior.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.Some of it is valid, like the vitiligo stuff, but the rest, especially the links, is definitely biased. Should I revert it?

Apologies for the bump, but did this ever get resolved? Because it seems like Omega 3421 was still doing this as late as September (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/article_history.php?article=Main.UnderminedByReality#edit30629179).
Took a note, but I don't think we have enough here for any other action.

Full disclosure: I am a massive Michael Jackson fan who thinks he was innocent of all the charges he was accused of in his life. Now with that out the way...
Omega 3421 has made a few Michael Jackson-related edits of late, many fixing grammatical issues, which is fine, but I noticed a couple of justifying edits from them made yesterday, and a few that stretch back at least to late 2020.
One edit that made me raise an eyebrow was that on the page for Jackson's album HIStory they had links to pro-MJ videos and sites, and had done something similar on the trivia page of the Simpsons episode that featured Jackson, and probably a few other pages. I also saw that they removed references to Jackson's allegations on some of his articles and YMMV pages as well, which I partially reverted.
Again, while I have my own opinions on MJ, Omega's edits still fall under possible ROCEJ violations, so I wanted to get consensus to revert some of them just so I don't trigger an edit war.
