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.

8725: Everything is done except the re-bulleting on NRLEP...I need to discuss that one.
Done.
Thanks Willbyr!
Together, we are one.For Western Animation, Please add this rewrite of Black Wolf. It doesn't seem to have been requested yet.
- The Flight Before Christmas: Black Wolf is the alpha of a bloodthirsty pack of wolves who open up the movie attempting to kill and eat the young Niko. Black Wolf, stressing over the lack of food, attacks a completely harmless poodle who strays into his territory; the poodle accidentally gives Black Wolf the idea to kill and eat Santa Claus and his reindeer. Black Wolf then gets the idea to pose as Santa's reindeer in the process so he and his pack could sneak into the houses of humans. The plan was to slaughter every child in the world to curb his hunger. Black Wolf tracks the reindeer down, proclaims himself the new Santa Claus, and prepares to eat the reindeer. Interrupted by Niko, Black Wolf attempts to murder him too out of frustration, going as far to pursue him on top of a flying sleigh miles in the air. Even as he fell to his inevitable Karmic Disney Villain Death, Black Wolf dragged Niko's best friend Julius down with him, stating his joy that at least he wouldn't die hungry; he would have killed Julius if not for Niko saving him.

Some more edit requests:
- Hyphenated Titles needs the Apocalypse How entries taken off. I also wonder if we could get a report of hyphenated articles similar to the big pages report.
- Locked Pages needs to be realphabetized after Eddie's breaking of subbulleting broke the alphabetic sequence.
The three edits that I'd put off this morning are done.
Done.

The Great Comics Crash Of 1996 needs to be redirected to The Great Comics Crash of 1996 and locked (assuming that the lock reason is still valid and applicable).

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsPlease add Charles, from Jade Green, to Monster.Literature. It was brought up here [1].
Also, cut these examples from the YMMV pages [2].

Most of that second request isn't necessary actually, since only one example is listed on a locked subpage.
Therefore, please cut Natalie Geln from Monster.Webcomics.

Done.

Church of Happyology needs to be added to Locked Pages.
Also, I have found some additions for 4chan's work list: Storybros Magically Lewd Sleepover Adventure, Dorf Quest, Taleof Solaron, Embric of Wulfhammer's Castle , El Cafe du Watchog and Maverick Hunter Quest, as well as a trope example:
- This Is a Work of Fiction: The /b/ board on 4chan has one of these:
Add Gian Carlo to Monster.Live Action TV
On Monster.Anime And Manga add this under Gemma from Ninja Scroll and also, alter it so it reads with a heading for Ninja Scroll at the top.
- Tessai is, hands down, the most violent, brutal and nasty of the Eight Devils of Kimon. A hulking brute of a man with skin he can harden into rock, Tessai is introduced butchering a group of shinobi who are investigating the village he and his seven comrades poisoned to manufacture rumors of a plague. The leader, Hanza, is caught by Tessi and killed sadistically as Tessai slowly rips his arms off with his bare hands before drinking the blood from the severed arms. Leaving only the sole woman of the group alive, Tessai takes her to his home and attemptsto rapeher, informing her not to struggle because "he wouldn't mind raping a dead girl."when Kagero is rescued by Jubei Kibigami, a humiliated Tessai later makes it a point to hunt down Jubei and attempt to beat him to death in retribution.
Add the first two examples here to Monster.Marvel
Add the latter two to Monster.DC And Vertigo but please change Truman's entry to cut the sentence of him attacking the young woman with the monster. Instead have it read "ommy becomes aware of this when he rescues a young pregnant woman who had been a witness to the escaped creatures. Once he discovers the witness, Truman makes plans to have her murdered."
Done. I also did some reformatting and namespacing on the page.
Done except for the DC edits; does the Hitman entry need to go under the Post-Crisis heading?

For Gian Carlo, a few tweaks. Here's the redone entry:
- Crossing Lines: "Desperation & Desperados" has Gian Carlo. Chief of security for Mafia boss Nicolo Conti, Gian Carlo is assigned to rescue Conti's kidnapped daughter, Angela, after brothers Antonio and Paulo raid Conti's drug stash and capture her. After executing the warehouse guard, Gian Carlo tracks the brothers to a marketplace and opens fire; when Paulo and Antonio manage to make their escape, Gian Carlo instructs his men to kill the witnesses, slaughtering twenty-five people—including two children—in an effort to keep it quiet. He follows the brothers to Slovenia and kills another nine people at a gas station, before cornering them at a hospital where he murders Paulo, two hospital workers and two police officers who try to stop him. He subsequently runs Angela and Antonio off the road, fatally wounding Antonio in the process, shoots one of his men when he objects to the idea of hurting Angela, tries to kill Angela herself while ranting about how she doesn't appreciate what he's done for her, and then dies in a shootout with the police. Leaving a trail of human wreckage—including forty-two dead—throughout Italy and Slovenia, Gian Carlo did more damage in an afternoon than most gangsters do in their entire lives.
Film A To E: Please make it prison warden for the Death Race entry. Also, please add Koba (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes: Entry at Dawn of the Planet of the Apes)
