All of that said though, I love how you missed my initial first point. The \'\'original\'\' entry for Turbo \'\'did not have italics, bold, first person, Word Cruft, or any of the rest\'\'.

All of that said though, I love how you missed my initial first point. The \\\'\\\'original\\\'\\\' entry for Turbo \\\'\\\'did not have italics, bold, first person, Word Cruft, or any of the rest\\\'\\\'. It was properly written, informative, accurate, and defensible. It was only when someone deleted it (without discussion, without going to the forum thread you mentioned, and without any explanation other than \\\"he\\\'s not an example\\\") that it got replaced by the horrible mess which caused the EditWar. So if you\\\'re going to enforce policies, enforce them rather than using false conclusions to bolster your opinions. If the original entry were restored, there would be no reason for the EditWar--and if it needs to be discussed in that forum thread before it can be added back, then the original entry is what needs to be discussed there, not that mess which replaced it.
Finally, if you think I am being rude, forgive me--but simply coming in and declaring \\\"Wrong\\\" just because you\\\'re a moderator seems pretty rude to me. Courtesy will be returned when given.
EDIT: Also, I find it rather appalling that you would claim consensus needs to be reached about Turbo being a CompleteMonster when the decision to remove him from the page was made by \\\'\\\'one\\\'\\\' person, one who has been reprimanded, suspended, and banned several times for unilaterally deciding who does and does not fit the trope. Saying consensus needs to be reached when only one person disagrees, and said person is one in trouble with the moderators for ignoring the rules, is ridiculous.

Just so we\'re clear, please follow basic article page editing conventions when adding tropes. It\'s only been one person so far, but I don\'t want to have to relearn how to alphabetize tropes every time somebody gets a surge of ideas and motivation and starts dumping tropes without organizing them or using the right convention in linking to the trope\'s page ([=CamelCasing=] the tropes name)

Just so we\\\'re clear, please follow basic article page editing conventions when adding tropes. This shouldn\\\'t happen too often, but since a case did come up, please drop the person a message when they start dumping tropes without organizing them or using the right convention in linking to the trope\\\'s page ([=CamelCasing=] the tropes name). Don\\\'t want to turn the page into a mess.
