* [[Keep Circulating the Tapes]]: The many NSFW works and tropes that were wiped in The Google Incidents. Many can only be accessed through the pages' edit history or through archive sites, and some were never archived.
* [[Paedo Hunt]]: The headlong rush to embrace censorship in 2012 was framed as a Paedo Hunt, using this trope as both a rallying cry and as a tool to discredit dissent and dissenters. It conveniently allowed the [[Censorship Bureau|P5]] to tar any work they disliked as "pedoshit" and anyone who disagreed with their agenda as a "pedophile". While admittedly TVT had attracted an unsavory and frankly creepy element that did need purging, the extent to which the campaign was (and continues to be) taken -- and the targets it was pointed at -- suggest it is more a cynically deliberate political/economic tool than a kneejerk [[Think of the Children]] reaction.
* [[Why Fandom Can't Have Nice Things]]: Arguably the reason new guidelines are put in place. A big example was the [[Internet Backdraft]] subpages, which were all wiped due to tropers consistently misusing the definition.
