So if I'm understanding correctly, they are re-adding the same example just using different words? If so, that's an Edit War in spirit if not literally. Especially if a cleanup thread has decided it's not an example.

PS. You mean "we are not supposed to root for", not rout for. Sorry for being a grammar pedant.

Thanks, fixed the spelling of root.

And yes, that is exactly what they are doing.

That should be an easy re-removal, since you have forum consensus. Octopedingenue should have gone to the thread instead of re-adding it.

While I wait for more opinions, I messaged Octopedingenue to come here.

Yeah, I remember being part of the discussion for this entry. From what I can tell, she very much doesn't like her husband by the end once she realizes she can't trust him and that's that.

Yeah. The entry is also bringing up the guy was married. While also saying that the movie presents it as unhappy.

So, am I good to remove or do I need more opinions?

I think you're good to chop it, Bull

Yeah, that example doesn’t fit the trope. Feel free to delete the entry. Just make sure to cite this ATT thread.

Removed with a link to this ask the thread and I left this note:

Fan Preferred Couple: Grace/Daniel have been decided to not be an example, since it's impossible to call their canon relationships "creator preferred" which is needed for this trope.
