Yes, but anything that\\\'s subjective is pretty impossible to say without using first-person, and if you don\\\'t, it sounds really arrogant, since you\\\'re basically saying that your opinion is fact. For example, someone says \\\"The soundtrack is awesome\\\", and then another person says \\\"YourMileageMayVary; This troper/I thought the soundtrack was terrible\\\", but the second entry is deleted because it contains \\\"this troper\\\". It\\\'s like Poochy.EXE said above; it\\\'s destroying something that\\\'s probably fine in and of itself just because it contains \\\"this troper\\\". This is especially problematic because there is really no way to say something like that without using the first-person, and if you just say it like it\\\'s fact, that can come off as extremely arrogant and self-centric. Whenever I see a \\\"this troper\\\", I really don\\\'t mind it; this wiki is not some hive mind, it\\\'s a collaboration of individuals. I don\\\'t understand why people don\\\'t like that idea. If it\\\'s abused and unnecessary, then yes, that\\\'s bad, but I don\\\'t think the phrase itself should be demonized just because it makes the wiki feel like it\\\'s made up of individuals rather than a hive mind. Honestly, the whole thing just confuses me.
