@SmileyB: This page really should be deleted outright because it is riddled with copyright violations. I did delete the description of Superman because it was a word-for-word copy of what's at TVT. But a lot of this page is original, which is what saved it -- for the moment.

However, many of the trope entries have content that is not original -- sentences that are lifted directly from TV Tropes' counterpart to this page. This puts us in violation of the law, and this page in violation of our Copyright policy. In particular, this passage:

Finally, please note that there is no amount of meaningful text "too small" to qualify as copyright violation. If it can be identified as originating from TV Tropes, it is a violation. Yes, this means something as small as replacing an image caption with one from TV Tropes counts. If there is any doubt or uncertainty about the attribution of a change, we will automatically err on the side of caution, to protect All The Tropes from legal liability.

Because so much of this page doesn't break the law I'm giving you a chance to clean it up. You have 48 hours. If the page still has passages copied word-for-word from TV Tropes on it at that time, it will be deleted to protect the wiki from legal liability.
