Sometimes they were right about doing so (for example, [[Album Filler]] would be overflowing with examples if we allowed them, and [[Writer Cop Out]] and [[Black Hole Sue]]'s potential for causing outright flame wars should be obvious<ref>[[Complete Monster]] ''did'' cause a flame war here, nasty enough to fork the wiki (again).</ref>). Sometimes they weren't (as, for example, in the case of [[Comedic Underwear Exposure]]).
 
This category lists those pages which were explicitly indexed as having undergone an [[Example Sectionectomy]]. This category used to be larger -- we have gone back and rescued examples for some pages we felt were better served with them, like [[The Bechdel Test]], however anything still in this category remains pruned. Tropers should feel free to check the [[Wayback Machine]]'s history for any of these pages, seeing what was cut, and rescuing anything of value. (Unless we've asked that the page be turned into a category, which approaches the issue from a different direction - the examples are added to the trope by being listed in the category that we've asked the page be turned into.) But before you start that, please check whether the sectionectomy was done on TV Tropes or All The Tropes - there are a very few tropes that we decided shouldn't have example lists here. ([[Mary Sue]] and [[Complete Monster]] come to mind.) Don't forget to remove the category when you do!
