There Is No Such Thing as Notability, but there is such a thing as a page being too stubby to keep. It can't stay as-is.

Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.

Yeah, it needs to be cut if we can't get more meat on it.

Maybe keep? It's also kinda stubby

Also they haven't been active for 2 years now so who knows if they'll come back to fix it

They won't. They never do.

Here is the thread for reporting stubby pages.

The page is created 2 years ago. In such cases, I usually send them straight to the cutlist, but if you know enough about the work, you can try to expand it, I suppose.

This looks like an easy decision to cut. It looks like a tropeable work, but there isn't even a link to the work itself. There aren't enough tropes to save this page, imo. Someone could do a better job starting from scratch.

As far as Patrick Gill goes, it seems fine. There's a stubby description but overall the page isn't a stub. Plus, it'll increase the chances of someone remaking Please Retweet into something more substantial.

Look at all that shiny stuff ain't they pretty
