1) Ideally, if an entry doesn't explain what's so horrible about the work, it's basically a Zero-Context Example.

2) We typically do add notes if an entry is edit-warred over. I believe we had to add a note about not adding the Pokemon Unite trailer or a Nintendo Mini-Direct just because they both got so much backlash, for example. We don't add a note for every entry that's removed but usually you can check the page history to see discussion.

3) The wiki does not like excessive Bold Inflation because it's often a form of Word Cruft, and it should be cut down to avoid entries getting too emotional. SBIH is on Darth Wiki and is thus more lenient, but entries shouldn't be obnoxiously aggressive there either.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.
