The character in question (Coco) isn't even confirmed as a lesbian, so it's a stretch. Unless it's from After the Fall, which has not been released and thus we cannot include its tropes.

I am sorry I did not consult anyone before making the changes. I was attempting to address and rectify the issues Wyldchyld seemed to have with the entry, such as making sure to add an Action Fashioista entry to avoid Trope Sinkhole. I actually agree that Lipstick Lesbian is not the best fit for Coco, and the Lipstick/Butch entry is an attempt to make something that might fit her better.

Additionally, all of the information I added, namely the confirmation that Coco is indeed gay, is from the official After the Fall preview which is freely available https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/after-the-fall-rwby

Ano Baka Desu:

If you look on the Edit War page, you will see the following.

"Here, we have a strict policy about edit wars. If you add something, someone changes or removes it, and you change it back, you're edit warring. If someone changes something, you revert it, and they change it again, they are edit warring."

In order to have an Edit War you must have three changes, with the same person making the first and third changes.

In this case troodos made the first change, Wyldchyld made the second change and Anthurak made the third change. Since the same troper didn't make the first and third changes, an Edit War hasn't occurred yet.

If troodos had added the original entry again, that would have been an Edit War (add - delete - add). If Wyldchyld deletes it again, that will be an Edit War (delete - add - delete).

If you see two other tropers perform the first two steps of an Edit War and you intervene and restore the original item without discussion, you're still causing a problem. However, as written, doing so isn't an Edit War.

There are exceptions to "don't ever revert a revert to your own change," of course. If it's blatant vandalism or undisputed factual information you can generally go ahead. Otherwise, hold off on it and take it here if necessary.

Okay, so in light of all this, I've taken down the Butch/Lipstick entry and started a discussion topic of the Kingdoms page to get all that figured out. Sorry if I stepped on anyone's toes.
