For the record, he was also involved in the Sonichu "review" mentioned below as one of the people bashing TV Tropes in the comments.

For that matter, Mary Sue and God-Mode Sue entries for Shepard seem to keep being deleted, even though in this case it's a case that s\he's an Escapist Character and Tropes Are Not Bad.

Those are invalid uses of Sue. Sues are always bad; that's the definition. We have also given them example sectionectomies.

For the record, I only put that stupid, stupid discussion page up because I was trying to be nice and I told scarface I would. If not for that, I never would have bothered.

If Mary Sues and God Mode Sues are always bad then shouldn't they be Darth Wiki entries?

I'd say no, personally. They're rather important terms and there are plenty of examples out there in the fanfic world of both terms, so I'd say they're worth keeping on Main. Just my opinion tho.
