History Administrivia / NoRecentExamplesPlease

Not to be confused with Administrivia/ExamplesAreNotRecent.

* OppressiveStatesOfAmerica (No Real Life Examples past the UsefulNotes/CivilRightsMovement of the 1960s): Due to Administrivia/RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement concerns.

* Hindsight Tropes (FunnyAneurysmMoment, HarsherInHindsight, HilariousInHindsight): After the event that makes it harsher/funny/heartwarming is over. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15816392660A25032600 Cleanup thread here.]]

* Values Tropes (ValuesDissonance, ValuesResonance, SocietyMarchesOn): 20 years after a work's initial release if it's about the dissonance/resonance between different time periods. Examples discussing the dissonance/resonance between different cultures do not require a waiting period.

* TheScrappy (6 months after the character is introduced or becomes hated): Waiting period introduced due to constant misuse and character-bashing. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13598973560A64980100 Cleanup thread here.]]

* TheWoobie (2 weeks): Due to frequent misuse; the waiting period allows for more people to experience the work so that consensus may be reached on newer examples. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15391212720A38366900&page=1 Cleanup thread here.]]

* BoxOfficeBomb (No films that have not finished their initial theatrical runs): It's impossible to tell whether a film can qualify while it's still in theaters.

* FranchiseKiller (5 years or official confirmation): In absence of confirmation an extended period of inactivity is required to prove it "dead".

* OvershadowedByControversy (6 months): Controversies often burn bright and then flare out, meaning that controversies that seemed important around release time can be forgotten before too long. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15417159170A60176600&page=1 Cleanup thread here.]]

* BaseBreakingCharacter (6 months): Due to being a magnet for knee-jerk reactions whenever a character is disliked by any portion of the fanbase. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14667066520A94266400 Cleanup thread here.]]
* BrokenBase (6 months): Due to being misused for any disagreement within a fanbase, no matter how minor or short-lived. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14667066520A94266400 Cleanup thread here.]]

* NeverLiveItDown.Sports (10 months): Similar to the Real Life section, though it takes much less time to become conclusive.

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece (10 years): Generally takes at least ten years to determine what the period-piece hallmarks of a given time period are. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14387018770A95034700&page=1 Cleanup thread here.]]

* NeverLiveItDown/RealLife (25 years): Due to being a magnet for agenda-based editing. Waiting period implemented so that it can be conclusively shown that the example, in fact, never ''did'' live it down.
