Wide World Of Sports lists the reasons why it was cut. It'd be instead be an argument to discuss if World of Sport should be cut as well.

That's interesting. As Wo S is a valid Works entry concerning a long-running sports anthology show, what were the issues with its American equivalent?

WOS only has four tropes, only one of which requires narrative. Dunno how "valid" I'd say it is.

The parody entry (the only one with any narrative aspects) isn't really a valid entry, as it is about other works referencing it and not about Wo S itself. So it really only has 3.

Yeah, the parody entries should be moved to the respective creator and work pages. Also they've got gushing that needs to be cut.

If this is just a sports program without fictional or at least narrative elements, then it isn't really tropable material either.
