Just a sec, is the Gamergate thing so divisive that not even the Rule of Cautious Editing Judgement covers it? If so, I'll abide, but I still want to know so as to delete it if so.

Oh, the thread? Don't worry, it's just dead. Hide / Show Replies

It's covered by a "do not mention it. We don't care and we don't want the bickering" rule.

Does this mean delete the current entry or does it mean don't edit the entry to make your side look better?

The latter, in this case. I don't think a mere citation here is wrong.

Does something that fits the Scandalgate formula in name but isn't an actual scandal fit this trope?

It needs to be some kind of controversy or somesuch to count.

So not necessarily a scandal, just something controversial?

Can we all agree that if any trope subverts Tropes Are Not Bad, it's this one?
