We've had issues with this troper before. Let's haul him in for another chat, shall we? Good job reverting.

I'm fairly certain that its the same troper who was going on that weird anti-Firefly/anti-Whedon crusade a while back. He's covering the exact same topics: bashing fans for saying the setting is "hard" sci-fi, going on about the terraforming and ship engines, blowing up the ethnicity minefield, complaining about the "We're on a spaceship" comment, etc. That's making me even more leery about this now. I really don't want a repeat of that guy's attempt to turn the wiki into a soapbox to complain about a ten-year-old TV show.

Not tremendously urgent, but an editor added a bunch of shoehorned tropes, natter, and complaining to the Firefly YMMV page. I've pulled them and explained my reasoning, but I've seen enough edit wars brewing to suspect that we might get a conflict in the immediate future if this stuff is contested. Some of it is the usual natter/flamewar-drawing stuff associated with Firefly, especially that prickly issue around ethnicity, so I went ahead and completely cleared that particular minefield. Giving a heads-up and requesting a moderator to keep an eye on it so if there is a conflict, we can nip any edit wars in the bud.
