Depends on why it was axed.

As a general rule, a work doesn't need to have a work page in the wiki to be noted as an example of a trope.

It was axed because it was rogue-launched.

IIRC, it got cut since whoever wrote it tried to passed it as a genre instead of what it is, a series of similar fanfic.

Oh, here it is. It actually got cut for being too poorly made.

Twine is a crescent platform for this, should it go in this page or in some new page (perhaps "hypertext adventure")?

Do Gamebooks really require their own folders on trope pages? Almost all of the examples listed there are from Lone Wolf anyway.

The folder is necessary because otherwise, they fall into a grey area and no tropers can decide where exactly to put those examples. I've seen them either in Literature, Tabletop Games or even Video Games. It's just to avoid such ambiguity.

And the examples aren't just Lone Wolf, I've seen a few from Fighting Fantasy, Grailquest and other titles. Just look The Many Deaths of You, the Gamebooks folder is full.

Kim Possible did four books of this type. More happy endings then is typical, though. Only three death endings between the two books present in the house.
