Locked Pages: Lock, UnLock and Edit requests

Go To

This thread is for requesting edits or unlocks to Locked Pages or for requesting locks. It can also be used for technical requests to moderators such as:

  • creating new pages in the Main/ and other restricted namespaces without going through Trope Launch Pad
  • moving discussion pages
  • moving reviews

Please keep the following guidelines in mind:

  1. Check Locked Pages and Permanent Red Link Club first. They can provide guidance on what are good and bad requests.
  2. Include working links in your request to the page(s) in question.
  3. If asking for edits, state your changes exactly as they should appear on the page, including proper Example Indentation, namespacing, and pothole and quote formatting. And make sure that what you want to add is actually a valid example.
  4. We do not edit archived articles, even to correct links.
  5. If you need to have the capitalization of a page title or namespace of a work fixed, ask here.
  6. If you need to remove a ghost wick, go here.
  7. To request a page to be moved along with its history, go here.
  8. Some locked pages have ongoing cleanup threads, like Complete Monster (Thread), Five-Man Band (Thread), and Magnificent Bastard (Thread). Other than purely technical requests, edits to these pages ought to be discussed in these threads first.
  9. Also, we do not do direct edits (other than changing wicks) to Magnificent Bastard or Complete Monster example lists. Rather, you need to do the edit to a sandbox page that follows the format Sandbox.Magnificent Bastard<Name of the example subpage> and Sandbox.Monster<Name of the example subpage> (e.g for Monster.Disney it's Sandbox.Monster Disney) and ask for it to be swapped in on Saturday for Magnificent Bastard and on Monday for Complete Monster.
  10. Inappropriate pages that keep being recreated, pages banned under The Content Policy and subpages that are disallowed (like Headscratchers pages for tropes) are valid reasons for requesting page locks.

NOTE: Edited with OP's permission.

Since most of the allegations against Alex Kister and leaks were proven false, can the page be unlocked? If the leaks are fake we have nothing to worry about, because that's the only reason given.

Analysis.Trains With Faces and Analysis.TV Tropes Reviews are still waiting to be locked and moved to the Other category on the PRLC since they (probably) weren't recreated.

On Character-Specific Pages please change this sentence:

A certain caustic critic, Super Saiyan and his antagonist, and his rival managed to gather three and four pages of their own; not indexes, pages

into:

A certain Super Saiyan, his antagonist, and his rival managed to gather two pages of their own; not indexes, pages

Just wanted to add another example to the subpage from Administrivia.What Page Types Mean, like Example: Analysis.Knight In Shining Armor. Just intended to add analysis as another example for sub-page, so it wouldn’t get more confusing. Also, I’d like to replace slashes with dots, as listed earlier.

Another one for Permanent Red Link Club - I'd like for these two entries:

to be changed like so:

  • Depressing Tropes: Intended as an index for tropes about depressing things, in a similar vein to Sadness Tropes (which is about tropes intended to cause sadness). However, due to the difference in scope between the two indices, people began shoehorning in tropes they found to be even the slightest bit depressing. Eventually, the shoehorning became so frequent that keeping the index was deemed to be more trouble than it was worth.
  • 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.

Mostly done to here, save for the PRLC additions which I already turned out, and the Alex Kister thing as I have no idea which pages these are.

[up][up] Thank you. Although I wanted to replace slashes with dots and add another example in Administrivia.What Page Types Mean like Examples: Quotes.Properly Paranoid and Analysis.Knight In Shining Armor. Please I’d like to add one more latter example next to the former for one more detail.

Re: Comment 33898, there’s still a passage in Line 66 of The European Union with the wrong verb tense—it should be “should have called” instead of “should call”. (To be sure, Mr. Kissinger is unlikely to be able to object to this request.)

I don't think we need another subpage listed out on the page types page. Doing the rest, and asking ~E13CATS101 to specify which pages they want unlocked.

For Fallen Creator can you add this to the end of the Butch Hartman entry.

In February 2021, Hartman returned to Nickelodeon as a producer for The Fairly OddParents: Fairly Odder which lasted for a single season before it was removed from streaming services on January 31st, 2023.

Could you at least edit the Magnificent Bastard.Animated Films for Zhen from Kung Fu Panda 4 with my creation, but with certain tropes?

Zhen is a wily thief who proves herself to be far more cunning and complex than the majority of Po's allies. Introduced trying to steal Po's staff from the Jade Palace, Zhen quickly twists things in her favor even after she's been arrested by offering Po advice and assistance in tracking down the villainous Chameleon. Though playing as Po's partner through their journey, Zhen reveals it was a ploy to lure him into the Chameleon's clutches and steal his staff, as Zhen is the Chameleon's top student. However, as Zhen comes to terms with her genuine kinship with Po and tires of her abuse at the Chameleon's hands, she betrays her master and amasses an army of fellow thieves to lay siege to the Chameleon's lair, giving Po the ability to escape near-death. Zhen then works with Po to defeat the Chameleon once and for all, and earns herself the title of the new Dragon Warrior.

Mostly done to here. Not sure what the requested edit to Fallen Creator adds; it seems offtopic. The Magnificent Bastard thing needs to be discussed.
