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.

5867, 5869, 5870, 5872, 5875: Done.

5873: I agree with Iaculus, those need work. Also, examples are not "arguable".

Part of entry #1 on Evil Overlord List should pothole to Helmets Are Hardly Heroic.

EDIT: And entry #9 should pothole More Dakka, not Bullet Hell, as the latter is a genre, not a trope.

EDIT EDIT: Aaaaaan entry #18 should pothole Overlord Jr..

On the following pages, Main/MassEffect3 wicks should be changed to VideoGame/MassEffect3: Fallen Creator, Horny Devils, Locked Pages, Marauder Shields, Permanent Red Link Club. On the Let's Play page, Main/MassEffect2 should be changed to VideoGame/MassEffect2. Thanks.

DTH except for the first part of 5881...that link doesn't feel any more right for that entry than the one that's already on the page.

American Political System has a part citing 'the recently-passed [California] Proposition 8 (which reversed the state Supreme Court's legalization of gay marriage) may be headed to a similar fate [overturned].' Since this actually has happened, adjusting would be wise.

And Chief Justice Roberts's robe isn't cooler than the others anymore; Rehnquist just did that since he thought it looked neat when he saw it on an actor's robe while watching Iolanthe or something like that.

For OTT.Transcript One, the Film/ in Persona is accidentally misplaced.

I now go by Graf von Tirol.

On the Monster.Live Action TV page, please change:

* ''{{Juukou B-Fighter}}'' brought us [[BigBad Emperor Gaohm]] while at first his actions were that of a standard Toku BigBad, he became worse when it was revealed in one episode he was kidnapping children, the only reason for it? to make them do ''SLAVE LABOR'' all he did was brush it off as nothing, in the final episodes he's shown to be pushed far past the MoralEventHorizon, when he gives [[MonsterOfTheWeek Hidra]] and armband that was actully a bomb, along with costing his other servants their lives, treating them like nothing more than cannon fodder in his final plan to kill everything on earth because he was stopped by the B-Fighters ** There's also his track record of Slavery and Genocide of other worlds/dimensions before he set course for earth.

The Training with Hinako page would be a good place for a link to Workout Fanservice. The Workout Fanservice page only has 5 internal links as of this post, and doing this would add a desperately needed Wick for it.
