If it matters, PlayingWith.Men Are The Expendable Gender was cut recently for lacking examples, but I checked the history pre-cut (note that I had already added it to the Cut List at this point) and saw that it had examples that not only didn't fit, but were described as questionable in the edit summary for their removal. However, I don't remember if the same person made those edits, and I didn't get a close look at the text itself (though I probably should have, in hindsight, in case the edits were being called questionable in the sense that they had the same problems as these pages).

Courtesy link to his edits.

Not a very frequent editor, and honestly while his edits are largely not-good and need reverts, they don't (so far) seem worth a ban so much as a "revert the bad ones and see what he does."

The The Horseshoe Effect and Missing White Woman Syndrome edits are particularly bad.

Edit: There's also this edit removing a quote on the harassment of women on Bystander Syndrome.

Maybe they don't deserve a ban, but a tap on the shoulder from a mod is probably in order.

I readded the quote deleted from Bystander Syndrome's quote page, as it seemed an unnecessary deletion
