I\'ve already started what I would like on two WMG pages: [[{{WMG/FlashForward2009}} Flash Forward]] and [[{{WMG/FallingSkies}} Falling Skies]]. But if you have seen every episode of a long runner and want to tackle the page, I think a lot of people working their way along would appreciate it.

See, for some of these, you are right - for something like SoBadItsHorrible, it does make sense that they are so flame-inciting that there is no point (although I\'m glad that people can continue to list examples on the trope\'s page, if not on work pages). But with something like CharacterDerailment, when there are examples of character derailment that are generally agreed-upon on particular fanbases AND represent a significant issue for that particular show that should be addressed on TV Tropes, then it does not make sense to keep removing them in every single instance. Something being controversial is not a reason to keep it from being discussed, and we have other rules (like the ones against Natter and the RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgment) that really should make blanket prescriptions against certain tropes unnecessary.

I just feel like we should not treat everything on this page with the same brush. Some of these discussions are less important and necessary than others.
