This page is intended to develop an encyclopedic article on the historical development of pattern based cliches. It has sometimes been in a reasonable state, but due to the faddish nature of its popularity, the article quickly spiraled out of control. As the fad fades, more reputable and scholarly sources are emerging to sort out the noise from the culture.
If you came here looking for writing aids for wikipedia articles, then this version is the currently sanitized version. It has many errors. It is my intention to develop the new article in a temporary sandbox. This page is required for its history information. If the history of this page is reasonable, then the sandbox will be merged into this article to preserve it, but if it is mostly vandalism, unsourced OR, and errors, then a simple list of contributors will be added to the encyclopedic article's talk page and this article will be discarded once its history is no longer needed.
