It's a newer page. Try sending the creator a stub notifier.

Looking at the related page, I think it might be possible to come up with one or two examples from the wicks.

^^ "A newer page" It was literally made over a year ago and hasn't been touched since then. I'm pretty sure this page is abandoned and will never be touched and improved by anyone, so it should be okay to just send it to the cutlist right away.

^^ Wouldn’t know; haven’t seen it, myself.

Eh, the creator is still active, who knows, they might respond. But yeah it’s probably abandoned.

Will this be more or less embarrassing if I admit that I forgot it wasn't 2020 anymore? To me I read it was being a month old.

It’s okay; the pandemic is getting to us all. Cut list yea or nay?

Yeah, I did see that the creator is still editing, so that's something... I guess it won't hurt to wait a day or three just to give them a chance.

^^ But the page hasn't been updated since last year so might as well put it in a cut list I guess.

I looked it up, and it turns out it's a real show. Given that, I'd say that there is indeed room to expand the article with an actual trope list, so I'm definitely in the "wait a day or three" camp given that a notification was already sent out.

Be kind.

Added a brief trope list (5 at the moment, based on what I could gather about the show from online sources) and included it on the Long-Runners list after totaling up how long it and its revivals collectively ran. Hopefully that should provide something of a starting point.

Be kind.

Thanks, Bowser. Haven’t heard back from the creator.

No problem, glad to help. As for the creator, I hope they'll be able to reply soon enough.

Be kind.

It has five tropes now and shouldn't be cut.

Yes, I realized that once bowser added them; the page was never sent to the cut list and I would consider this closed.

With only five examples it still needs to be listed on Works Needing Tropes.
