... because it is copied from TV Tropes. Unless you wrote it yourself - which the edit history on TV Tropes says you did not - this is copyright violation as the material postdates the fork and TV Tropes' subsequent change of license in 2012. Because All The Tropes and TV Tropes run under different Creative Commons licenses, content created there after 2012 cannot legally be used here. The only exception is if you wrote 100% of the text that you are posting to both wikis... but you have to actually say that before we can use the text. If it is not your own work, you will need to rewrite it in your own words before resubmitting it.

We also strongly recommend that you read All The Tropes:How We Do Bans Around Here. This isn't a threat -- this is the wiki policy strictly controlling how and when user bans can be applied by an Admin. We want you to be aware that unlike TVT, we do not ban users on whims or because we're cranky. But we'd like to emphasize that "Falsely representing oneself as having the right to authorize copying content from TV Tropes" is one of the very few ways there are to earn an immediate permaban here at ATT.

Yes, I did indeed write the original. I believe the entire page was taken down and restored after a discussion in 2022, after most of the info on it was posted.

I think I wrote "Imported old example from TV Tropes" in the notes

Please confirm: What was your username on TVTropes when you wrote the entry?

"Maedar".

I was kicked off TV Tropes well over 5 years ago, and I believe my record there has been purged.

The history of that Trope seems to be mostly that of a contributor named War Jay 77 moving most of the info from another page.

And seriously, forgive me for sounding bitter here, but it was a false accusation from another poster that got me kicked off TV Tropes in the first place.

That almost matches what the TVT edit history says, which means I may owe you an apology... I've referred this to the other mods.

It's okay. No harm done.

Okay, given how TV Tropes loves to mangle it's edit histories here, and given Warjay's contributions appeared to be a copy from another page, that would match up with your story. My apologies, but we do have to be sure.

I restored your contributions. If anyone is to blame here, it's TV Tropes for destroying edit history data needed to prevent these sort of false posiitves.

Thank you. They're a bunch of jerks.

And I apologize for removing the edit in the first place.
