... and, thanks to copy-and-paste from Wikipedia, we're down to 44 pages that don't have recaps and are thus subject to speedy deletion on January 1.

However, none of the remaining pages have recaps on Wikipedia - somebody's going to have to write recaps if they want the pages to stay on ATT.

I'm going to be travelling, but I note that the Wikia instances for Gunnerkrigg Court and Schlock Mercenary seem also (from somewhat brief inspection) to be under CC-BY-SA, although the latter has little that seems as though it might be useful. I don't know about the other works on the list, and I see neither licence information nor much recap on Ovalkwiki.

I've exported the "recap" pages I wrote, so I can add their trope examples in more appropriate places later.

Thanks. Even getting stub recaps onto some of these pages will help.

Apology for recap-less Recap pages

Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Recap and Angel/Recap led me to believe that Recap pages basically being per-episode trope example lists was accepted, and I thought it seemed a nice way to be more organized and keep the lengths of work pages down. Now I know differently, and, Robkelk, I'd like to apologize for making all the recap-less Recap pages for Schlock Mercenary and Gunnerkrigg Court, particularly given that the appearance in Special:RecentChanges of many of these seemed to correlate with your starting this category.

I forgot. If something is deleted is there enough of a history left to look at the old content? Because it would be nice that if the page was recreated, (but with an actual recap), the tropes listed would still be archived in the page history.

I am wondering can some of us resurrect the Recap pages, like later on when we don't have too much in our plates? Or must we ask if we can resurrect them.

Robkelk (talkcontribs)

We aren't planning on purging the pages, so everything that's currently on the pages will be available to be restored if somebody wants to work on them.

As for who can restore them... I believe that's limited to the admins, so you'd have to ask one of us, but it takes less than a minute to carry out a restore.

Thanks, Robkelk, that's what I want to know.
