Category:Not tropeworthy with an unclear description
Open-and-Shut Case is a trope on a case that is so obvious that it need not be solved, which like Weve Got Ourselves A Blank, was declared definition-only, has no record of ever going to TRS, has a very unclear description, and is more a Stock Phrase than a trope like So Yeah was.

Possible solutions
Snip snip. Pages that were cut and locked for attracting spam
Incorrectly namespaced or misplaced pages
Some pages with generic titles were repeatedly cut then recreated before being locked, likely due to the text of the "create page" button misleading them into thinking it was the correct place.

Other/Unsorted
- Awesome.Four Chan, Funny.Four Chan, and Heartwarming.Four Chan: Not a tropable work on its own, plus we are not interested in troping real life users.
- Awesome.YouTube, Funny.YouTube, and Fridge.YouTube: All three were cut when users started using them to trope real life YouTubers instead of the videos they appeared in. In addition, after the site's YMMV page was cut as a result of No Real Life Examples, Please! violations, people began complaining about the decision on the Fridge page, which made its already poor quality even worse.
- Character Named Tropes: Was intended to help in renaming efforts, but was never used to help renames, just supported the idea.
- Darth Vader The Eldritch Abomination: A Same, But More Specific variant of Ron the Death Eater that applied to villains, wherein they were made worse than they were in canon.
- Depression Fuel: You may be looking for Tear Jerker.
- GAR: Once a redirect to Badass, it was created as a page that describes Memetic Badass through Perverse Sexual Lust. Cut for being a redundant meme.
- It Looks Like This: Created as an example of a redlink for the Red Link page. Allowing it to be blueshifted would kind of defeat its purpose.
- Media Watchdogs: Plural redirect to Media Watchdog.
- Relationship Text Upgrade: Now known as Relationship Reveal.
- Sandbox.Content Policy Reasonings: A former sandbox for pages cut under The Content Policy, it was deemed to be an unnecessary sandbox. Additionally, there were concerns that the sandbox would lead to people linking to them from offsite.
- Title Bin: Made originally as a place where tropers would suggest names for new tropes. It was quickly filled to the brim with in-jokes, killing its purpose. The abuse was channeled into DarthWiki.Tropes That Will Never Happen.
- UsefulNotes.Suicide Prevention: Cut and locked because TV Tropes is not qualified to give medical advice, and attempting to do so could potentially cause legal issues.
- Moments subpages for Twitter: While the Awesome page was cut for political soapboxing, the others were axed later as Twitter is not a tropable work and it's also troping real life.
- YMMV.Advertising: Contained complaining for
What an Idiot!, plus it's an illegitimate page (work mediums should not have YMMV pages).
