"Add it back"? We never had a page for it in the first place, from what I can tell.

Anyway, spare us the wall of text. This Is A Wiki. You can make the page yourself, if it doesn't go against the The Content Policy and the 5P Circuit.

I think we did have a page, but it was removed precisely because it violated The Content Policy and the 5P Circuit.

Edit: It has its own thread years ago

There was a page (you probably looked for it in a namespace it didn't have prior to the 2nd Google Incident). I know I saw it when it existed.

Also, the work does go against the 5P policy, so its making isn't allowed. This decision was contested in the past to no avail, so contesting it now is a waste of time.

EDIT: Ninja'd!

Ah, okay. I made a URL and it didn't give me a cut-page notice; it acted like it never existed. But I guess it did.

Welp, then you're SOL, OP.

There was a bit of a discussion in 2016 where Willbyr went over why it wouldn't be brought back, though they mentioned the only way it could be brought back would be as a stub with no examples.

We don't want that kind of pedo shit on our wiki.

By my understanding, you can still add entries for the series on trope pages, but you can not link to the page, not even as a redlink, and the entry is otherwise required to follow all other troping rules, including 5P.

I think WarJay's issue is that the work is actually Kodomo no Jikan; note the typo in the title. Indeed, Main.Kodomo No Jikan and Manga.Kodomo No Jikan are both cut and locked.

Note that this is not a statement over whether or not I personally believe it should have a page; I could write a whole Wall of Text if need be, but I don't feel like being accused of flogging a dead horse like this. Yes, consensus can change (see Syndrome from The Incredibles being upvoted as a Complete Monster years after he was determined not to count), but in this case, it hasn't.

^ Yep, that's it. I've never heard of this work before now, so I searched for "Jinkan", not "Jikan".

Again, OP, you can try to get it back, but there would be no point to it.

I've stated before that I wouldn't mind re-examining some P5-removed works and bringing them back provided their pages were locked and their trope content was strictly limited to examples that didn't mention their prurient content. Kodomo no Jikan is not one of those works. I read most of it back in the day primarily to see what all the fuss was about, and the point I made back in that content discussion thread still stands—whatever good aspects of it there are (and, believe it or not, there are some genuinely noteworthy and positive aspects to the story) are so undermined by the incessant loli fanservice that they're completely neutered. What really sealed the deal for me was [spoilers] the teacher character developing romantic interest in the main girl about 3/4 through, which is the moment I dropped it as it was what I feared would happen. I checked out the final chapter a few months back to satisfy my curiosity, and it ends with them getting married once the girl hits legal age and, thankfully offscreen, consummating the union.

It's not coming back. Period, end of discussion, finis.

I didn't remember seeing them get married, just that they start dating and try but fail to make love. Missing the point aside, can we lock this thread since the discussion won't go anywhere?

^ You may be right; I was skimming so I may have glossed over some details. Regardless, this does need to be closed.
