Additionally, a few of the entries include unnecessary potshots at works they don’t like.

There are also several null edits from this troper. Maybe worth hollering to a mod?

What should be done with the entries they made?

Remove any that are complaining citing this ATT.

The problem isn't just that some have complaining, but most of them are little-context/elaboration. Additionally, some seem to be for nonexistent works.

So just cut them all then?

I've noticed that others have such zero context examples by this troper in the past.

As an aside, it appears that in the past, they've also added unsourced claims under What Could Have Been, of which both those and many of their WMG additions seem to be their fan fiction ideas.

I'm also finding that several of the entries are meta.
