Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread
for ongoing cleanup projects.
Looks like all of the pages have been reverted, judging by the histories.
Also, asking for someone to be banned is considered mini-modding and could get yourself suspended, so please don't do it.

Understood. Edited the OP to remove that.
Well something needs to be done real quick because he just keeps reverting the fixes as soon as I finish up.
Looks like a bot (or a very determined troll) editing faster than you can keep up with. Save your energy!
Covered in Star Wars Cleanup, Deadpool, and Web Video sand. I'm not coarse and rough, but I get everywhere.
He's also done the same for the character page of The New Order: Last Days of Europe just now.
The Fan Works page also just says "himmler x vagner", courtesy of him
Added those to cut list already.
Good Lord, this guy is vandalizing faster than lightning.
Makes me think he's using a separate tool or plugin...
(Don't) take me home.
You're doing good by reverting vandalism, but the back-and-forth is clogging the page history.
Two more for the cut list: Analysis and Playing with.
Edited by AK47Productions
He's sure taught you guys a lesson with that Analysis page.
"the only good thing in this timeline is germany won"
Can I get a yikes.
5 entries on cut list as for now.
It is tiresome.
I gotta say tho, they did make the laconic extremely laconic.

Has anyone hollered yet?
(Don't) take me home.
ATT threads can't be hollered.

"half the mods are pedos"
Okay, I'mma just PM a mod real quick...
"the real terajerker is hitler died and (((they))) won"
This troll amused me at first. Now I'm just sad inside.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
Huh, never knew you couldn't holler ATT threads until now. Whoops.
Also, holy hell. Does this troper have an agenda?
(Don't) take me home.
Yeah, those guys tried to remove the mod from Steam on DMCA infringement or some shit.
Edited by Magnimik
Is this a ban evader as far as we know?
Probably not. The mod has a long list of long-time trolls and proactive haters, and this guy decided to escalate war to the TV Tropes theater.
^^^^ Yeah, mods tend to lurk ATT, so hollering would be redundant.
Course, the mods have been stretched pretty thin lately, so that doesn't mean they necessarily see any given query quickly...
Edited by wingedcatgirl Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.
Just gotta keep reverting as best as we can, I guess.
In the past I would sit on the edit page after reverting to lock the vandal out. Should we do that here?
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
^ Could, but doesn't the lock only last 20 minutes once activated?
^^ Yeah, good idea.
Edited by Twiddler
^^ Yeah, but then we just exit the page and hit "edit" again.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
I think you can only hold an edit page for the most recent page edited (learned it minutes ago, by opening multiple tabs, and all but one were vandalized anyway).
Edited by Tabs
Well, I'm sitting on the Awesome page, so at least that one's safe.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
There was a bit of an incident about a month ago where someone tried to lie about Panzer (the mod's main dev) being a pedophile on the Discord Server in response to him getting banned for blatant racism. I think this is the same guy.
I'm here, I guess.
Ummm... I think he is somehow bypassing the lock system.
You sure? He hasn't touched the Awesome page since I've been sitting on it. Did you open multiple tabs, like Tabs discussed above? That doesn't work.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
I've got the laconic page.
Yeah, edit lock only lasts on the most recent edited page. If anyone wants to sit on the subpage, make sure you are sitting on only one.
I am on the Character subpage, for reference.
Is Fridge/ and/or VideoGame/ still locked? I'm trying not to check them in case that counts as leaving the edit screen.
^ Good to have confirmation.
Edited by Tabs
Do mods have the ability to hide specific items in the history pages, like to Wikipedia's oversight feature?
I'm on Funny/ right now, btw.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
I'm on Nightmare Fuel
I'm here, I guess.
Actually, how do I report the guy?
I'm here, I guess.
^ This thread counts. You can also PM a mod.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
Where are the mods?
I'm here, I guess.
Living life, I assume.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
Not a call to relax yet, but the guy slowed down a little, since he hasn't edited anything for 10 minutes.
I mean where are their accounts?
I'm here, I guess.
Alright, sent.
I'm here, I guess.
Vandal has been sacked. Time to clean up his act
.
Unfortunately, it's a bit late for me to do any mod-reverts.

Finally. Thank you!
All his edits were already reverted, all that remains are his headspaces that are in Cut List.
Edited by Magnimik
Thanks!

WOO
I'm here, I guess.
Good job, everyone!
@GoosefromWikipedia, that sort of utility been suggested here
Joebavex vandalizes pages for Hearts of Iron mods (specifically on The New Order Last Days Of Europe and associated subpages), deleting all content from pages and replacing it with trollish phrases.
