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.

"But... nobody told me I needed a signature!"The Iron Age Of Comic Books can be removed from Useful Notes Pages In Main.
"But... nobody told me I needed a signature!"That page will also need a change to the backend, so that the pagetype change page points to https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Administrivia/WhatPageTypesMean instead of https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/WhatPageTypesMean.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanOops, didn't think it would break anything as What Page Types Mean (now) redirects to Administrivia.What Page Types Mean. Seem like it did.
Please remove these from Administrivia.Creator Pages In Main as they have been moved:
- David Battley
- Eric Sykes
- Harry Secombe
- Hema Malini
- John Krasinski
- Rajesh Khanna
- Shammi Kapoor

- Vinod Khanna
Every actor on the Bollywood Actors list has been moved to a namespace.

Keeper of The Celestial FlameOn WorkPagesInMain.P to R, please add Roll to Dodge.
On Creator Pages In Main, please add Triple J.
On Wick Namespace Migration, please add the line (simple section):
- Green-Sky Trilogy - Literature/
On Brother–Sister Incest, please correct "Anime/{{Mai-HiME}}" to "Anime/MaiHime".
Triple J was already moved, actually. I am not 100% sure on the namespace, though.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanIt was moved to Radio, which I believe is wrong as it should be in creator. Radio is the namespace for works on the radio, such as Radio.The Goon Show, unless the guidelines have changed? - sorry for posting off-topic.
OT: Please remove these from Administrivia.Creator Pages In Main:
- Bertrand Russell
