I thought that redlinks to works are fine, as long as they are eligible for a page in the first place. The proper procedure to deal with work redlinks would be not to delete them, but to create a page for that work.

The "on this wiki" qualifier should be removed IMO. If a work relies on Ren'Py, it should be there even if it has no page yet.

I think the issue here is that the redlink is specifically being added to a list of works that have pages when it clearly does not. The redlink was also added to Visual Novel but that one's probably fine.

Also, courtesy link to the disputed page: UsefulNotes.Ren Py

Yeah, creating a Red Link is usually fine... unless you're making a red link on a list that's explicitly for works that have pages.

So either the work needs to go or the "on the wiki" qualifier needs to. But either way Ame 14 is in the wrong here.

We messaged them about it.

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

Now they're making a page for it. So far it has no tropes, but as I write this it's being edited, possibly to add more tropes.

Well, Student Union is also apparently "upcoming", so it's not even out yet. So who knows how many tropes there actually are for it?

^ Well, it does apparently have a playable demo, available here.

I notice that the current page description is almost an exact copy-paste of the official description on the website.

Well, they didn't add any more tropes, so I cutlisted it.

They have another poorly made page at The Sekimeiya: Spun Glass.

Have you sent a stub notifier?

Thanks, Kuruni. I sent other notifiers, but I did forget about that one.
