Star Trek: The Next Generation deleted scenes and a call to arms!

Data cat Spot
Here is a message posted on SomethingAwful by Aatrek, SA goon and hard-working contributor of TrekCore. TrekCore has gotten a hold of some of the VHS workprints of Star Trek: The Next Generation episodes that feature deleted scenes that do not appear to have survived in any other format. They got these tapes because someone posted a thread on Reddit and mentioned they had them. Thus, Aatrek got in contact with him and the footage has been saved and is beginning to appear online. As these tapes exists, it seems likely that other tapes are out there. So TrekCore has put out the call to find these tapes and help preserve history for all mankind. But mostly Trekkies who love seeing deleted scenes.

There is some precedent as the extended version of A Measure of a Man was created using a VHS workprint of the episode. Here are two video montages made from the new footage Aatrek got, including deleted scenes from The Wounded, which it is highly unlikely anyone ever saw until this release:
