All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XXII

[Bob Schroeck]

Holy freaking crap. I spend half my weekend shopping and playing City of Heroes instead of reading the forums and this blows up behind my back. And there's so much of it now that I can't just absorb it all and give an off-the-cuff response that I can trust as being appropriate.

Rob, I apologize for not responding to your requests for help. I've had my own personal plans and priorities to address, as random as my edits may seem at times, but I'll see what I can do to help.

Lulz, I'll repeat what I said on the wiki. In general, works don't get deleted unless they're fake. This wasn't my proclamation, I should note. Four years ago I proposed deleting the page for a work that no longer existed and could no longer be found -- I forget which it was at this late date -- and the rest of the staff said "no", for the very reasons I echoed to you. I created the MIA template in response to that incident. Just... relax on proposing deletions. And if you've found something you're certain really does need it, add the delete template to the page and start a discussion about why on its talk page. Because I have to admit Rob isn't the only one who has recently developed a perception of you as having an itchy trigger finger for deletes.
