The most recent revision to More Dakka removes the "No Real Life Examples, Please" note and adds a real-life example. It was followed up with the most recent revision to No Real Life Examples, Please.
These are anonymous edits, and I recognize the IPv4 address as belonging to the Government of Canada. (It is, in fact, the gateway to the network I use at the office - but I didn't make this update).
Do we let this stand?
I'm also tempted to put a one-week ban on the IP address with the reason "Anonymous edits from government networks are discouraged. Please log in to make changes." Good idea or not? (If we decide to do this, it should be my name on the block.)
I'd strongly agree, please do as you suggest Rob.
Also, speaking of policy questions, I brought this up to Labster on the "Eye Scream" talk page, would like to address it here to get a consensus of opinion.
Labster reverted the Eye Scream edit on the category and returned everything to the main page, citing he didn't like using category pages for hosting that content. I, however, prefer to do this for pages that serve as trope subpage indexes since Category pages automatically keep track of all subpages much more efficiently than doing so manually, not to mention prevents cloning all that automatic work manually, and with the simple addition of an added Inputbox template to the Index Trope pages, new pages can be created and added to these same pages for adding and updating the indexes on the fly.
If there are compelling technical or other reasons why this opinion is in error, please let me know, because I'd prefer to get a consensus on this before it becomes a contentious issue.
