The trope is about the people who find Sayuri unsympathetic, so it makes no sense to talk about the reasons why she might actually be sympathetic (similarly, it makes no sense to talk about why Nobu is Unsympathetic in a trope entry talking about how Unintentionally Sympathetic he is.)

Clearly, the mitigating circumstances for Sayuri's actions weren't mitigating enough to a substantial group of viewers. I think their edits should be reversed/removed.

I'll make the edit with a link to this thread, but should anything else be done about Lucky Cat? This is both an edit war and continuous justifying edits.

I sent the cat a notifier about indentation. They replied and said they'd fix things.

^ Did you at least re-notify them?

Hey. So Lucky Cat might be Edit Waring on the Fan-Preferred Couple pages as well. So a couple of days ago they added a Finnick/Johanna entry to Literature. However when I looked around, I found that the canon Finnick/Annie is bigger on almost every site, as well as having a much bigger and longer lasting fanbase than Finnick/Johanna. So I cut it here. However Lucky Cat then added a slightly differently worded entry to Live-Action Films here. So I brought it up to the FPC cleanup thread here, and was directed here. Does this constitute an edit war?

Suspended them anyway, because they have more than enough warnings to clean up their act re: Example Indentation.
