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:
- Check Locked Pages and Permanent Red Link Club first. They can provide guidance on what are good and bad requests.
- Include working links in your request to the page(s) in question.
- 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.
- We do not edit archived articles, even to correct links.
- If you need to have the capitalization of a page title or namespace of a work fixed, ask here.
- If you need to remove a ghost wick, go here.
- To request a page to be moved along with its history, go here.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

As part of a YKTTW-TRS effort to work on the "Save the World" Climax, this example needs to be added to Final Fantasy VII:
- "Save the World" Climax: The game starts with a resistance group known as Avalanche fighting against the Shinra MegaCorp just to help improve the lives of the citizens that live in the slums. One thing turns to another and eventually they're fighting a psychotic Super-Soldier who wants to destroy the world.
Sorry for all the repeated posts today, but Fanfic.Drunkards Walk needs a Creator/ namespace on Main.Aya Hisakawa.
ETA: UsefulNotes.American Political System needs Main.California changed to UsefulNotes.California.

No trouble at all. I only namespaced the one instance that was wikilinked.
Someone made an edit request for the Gor page on the discussion page. I pmed him telling him about this thread, but at the same time I thought I'd pass his request on.
In that case! Please change Main.Xenosaga to VideoGame.Xenosaga on Main.Lets Play
ETA: And the same namespace for Xenogears on VideoGame.Final Fantasy VII.

On Complete Monster Western Animation page, there are some villains that need to be axed. The Complete Monster cleanup thread decided so;
- Norman Osborn from The Spectacular Spiderman. Doesn't really commit enough heinous actions to qualify.
- The entire The Adventures Of Jimmy Neutron entry. The show is too lighthearted to have any C Ms, and the villains do not commit any onscreen acts.
- Steele from Balto. He is just a Jerkass but not quite a Complete Monster.
- Geberak Zahl from Batman The Brave And The Bold for being a Zero Context Example.
- The spider from Cobweb Hotel short. Just a generic Big Bad.

On Horny Devils, the line that starts "Poul Anderson's Operation Chaos" needs to have Creator/ and Literature/, respectively, added to those wicks.
Speaking words of fandom: let it squee, let it squee.Done.
Not where I'm comfortable accessing that particular page...I'll take care of it later if no one else does.
There is a lore related error in the Bleach section of the Complete Monster trope, in the third "Hollow" article,
I think it best replaced with:
I've left the original line "after Ichigo kills him" in so it is easy to see which part I meant.
"Double Quotes" added for clarity, not because they belong in the article.

on Fallen Creator, Brat Pack needs changing to Brat Pack. Be warned, the person who wrote it used the curly brackets instead of CamelCase.
Keeper of The Celestial FlameI just requested to Fighteer that Feminist Frequency be locked because it has been such a bashing/natter magnet. Wondered about the mods going through it now and fixing some of that. I'd think this line added to Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch should probably go:
- Not so much though since it is technically a second season to a series of videos she was already known for.
The other main area would probably be Internet Backdraft- maybe there's some way of balancing it (I think that the article should keep acknowledgement of the vehemence of hatred the creator received).
Edit, edit, edit, edit the wikiDramatic Sit-Down: After 9/11, he did this on camera. He was sitting in a classroom, reading a book to children when one of his aides came over and whispered what was happening into his ear. He made a point by not telling the kids.
Can someone put this in the George W Bush page? Please and thank you.
Don't make me destroy you. @ Castle SeriesCould you also please add the following article on Naruto's YMMV page, under the Values Dissonance trope? Thank you in advance.
- When Shikaku is about to relay an important message for his wife to his son, he suddenly changes his mind and instead tells his son to hide the contents of a wooden box from his mother. So instead of using this final chance to say his last goodbyes to his wife, it's apparently more important to him that she doesn't find his stash of porn. What.
Can we break the double redirect VideoGame.Monster Girl Quest —> The Monster Girl Encyclopedia —> Manga.Daily Life With Monster Girl by repointing the first to the third? (Edit link)
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanThis example, as part of a TRS cleanup effort, needs to be added to Inheritance Cycle:
- Alas, Poor Villain: Durza memory dumps onto Eragon in his dying moments and reveals his tragic past that led him to become a Shade in the first place.
YMMV.The Bible needs to have the Alas, Poor Villain for Judas deleted.
Got a couple Metal Gear Solids that need to be changed:
- On America Saves the Day, Metal Gear Solid needs to be changed to Metal Gear and the Metal Gear Solid 4 Pot Hole at the end should be changed to Metal Gear Solid 4.
- The Metal Gear Solid on Fallen Creator should be changed to Metal Gear Solid.
- The Metal Gear Solid under Killer App on the Final Fantasy VII page should be changed to Metal Gear Solid.
- The first Metal Gear Solid on the Metal Gear page should be changed to Metal Gear Solid 3, and the second that is spoilered near the bottom should be changed to Metal Gear.
Alright, here's where we're at:
4464: Not that I don't trust you (I am completely ignorant about Bleach) but I want someone to double-check that request before I put it on the page.
4465: Done.
4466: The first edit is done; do you have a suggestion as to how to rewrite the latter part? I've only watched a couple of those videos and am completely ignorant of anything beyond what I've seen.
4467: Not added; if Bush was already sitting down, I don't see how this applies.
4468: I'm asking for advice on that one as well (again, a series I know nothing about)
4469 - 4472: Done.
Naruto has several examples of Alas, Poor Villain, which was rendered objective under a TRS thread. As written, none seems to fit - can they be removed, please?

And on DarthWiki.Fallen Creator, Main.Pitfall needs a VideoGame/ namespace.
