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.

Cartoon Animal: The series never assigns a name to Red's species, which combines avarious feline and canine traits. Characters occasionally refer to him as lion-like, but his association with the moon and howling to express himself is more like a wolf.
Cartoon Creature: The series never assigns a name to Red's species, which combines various feline and canine traits. Characters occasionally refer to him as lion-like, but his association with the moon and howling to express himself is more like a wolf.
Likewise, this entry under Rufus Shinra's profile can be fixed thusly:

This page should be redirected to the Light Novel namespace of the title (I have no idea why it's locked):
- Anime/Bakemonogatari
Done to here. (Thanks for the clarification about the Tails Doll.)
: The page was probably originally in Anime/ but then moved to Light Novel/ and the Anime/ page cut back when cutting automatically locked a page.
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.Please add to Literature:
- The Shadow of the Wind: Francisco Javier Fumero, the corrupt chief of police in Barcelona, relishes the power his position brings him. As a boy, Fumero tortured small animals as an outlet for his sadism, and when he discovered Julian Carax, the one boy to treat him kindly, and Penelope, who Fumero lusted after, were together, he attempted to murder Julian and devoted his life to destroying him and Penelope alike. Fumero sent his men to kill Julian and personally murdered a woman who loved Julian for helping him. In the years that passed, Fumero terrorized the populace of Barcelona as a uniformed thug, torturing those who caught his ire. One luckless man named Fermin was held and beaten before Fumero tortured him with a blowtorch. When the young hero of the novel, Daniel Siempre, closes in on the buried story of Julian Carax, Fumero wastes no time in attempting to kill him and all who know the truth as well. Cruel, sadistic, violent and insatiably power-hungry, Fumero represents how far a once almost pitiable boy can fall.
DC And Vertigo: Please replace Joker's entry with
- The Joker, a Monster Clown with a Multiple-Choice Past, is Batman's Arch-Enemy. Over the course of his long career, despite being mostly without superpowers), he has: crippled Barbara Gordon and tried to psychologically torture her father into madness; sold nuclear weapons to terrorists, savagely beat Jason Todd with a crowbar, then killed him and Jason's mother with a time bomb; repeatedly emotionally and physically abused his girlfriend, Harley Quinn, going so far as to try to kill her multiple times; attempted to infect the entire world by poisoning the atmosphere with Joker-venom when he believed he was dying; in Batman: No Man's Land, tried to kill every newborn baby in Gotham in order to break the city's spirit, killing Commissioner Gordon's second wife, Sarah Essen, in the process; and in the Emperor Joker storyline stole the powers of Mister Mxyzptlk, becoming a nigh-omnipotent god-like being who turned the world into a hellish caricature of itself, tortured Batman to death only to revive him and repeat the process continuously until Batman was driven insane, devoured everyone in China, and attempted to wipe out all of existence. The Joker's sole motivation, in committing every crime there is, is amusement, based on what his disturbed sense of humor deems funny.
Film A To E: Please replace the Joker tree with this:
- Batman's Arch-Enemy The Joker qualifies for this trope in these two live action incarnations:
- Batman: Before his transformation, Jack Napier murdered Bruce Wayne's parents, and was only stopped from killing young Bruce by his accomplice telling Jack to leave. As The Joker, he intends to poison all the Gothamites with Smylex Gas for no other reason than his own amusement; has three mob bosses killed (with him even joking about their deaths, at least one of which he involved himself in by electrocuting a mob boss with enough voltage to turn him into a charred skeleton after claiming that shaking his hand will be the end of it if he refuses to agree with the Joker). He also disfigured and killed Alicia Hunt under the guise of suicide to free himself for Vicki Vale ("You can't make an omelet without breaking some eggs."); gasses an art gallery full of people to death just to have some "alone time" with Vicki Vale; and puts the components of Smylex into different cosmetics to cause random city-wide deaths just to make the people panic. He even cold-bloodedly guns down his best and only friend, Bob the Goon, just to vent his anger over Batman ruining the above attempt to gas everyone at the parade.
- The Dark Knight: TheJoker is introduced by killing each of his goons and an innocent bus driver after a bank robbery. The Joker proceeds to exploit the Mob’s desire to be rid of Batman, casually murdering henchmen, politicians and police to force Batman to unmask himself. He also makes the accountant attempting to unmask Batman a target; ties a crime boss to a pile of money which he then burns; kills a gangster by making a pencil disappear...eraser-end first; blows up a hospital; attempts a Prisoner’s Dilemma Scenario to get a boatload of civilians and prisoners to blow each other up; and, primarily by manipulating a Sadistic Choice leading to Rachel Dawes's death,and then by mind raping an injured Harvey Dent in the hospital, is the driving force behind his transformation into Two-Face. The Joker's goal is really to show that anyone and everyone can and will become a Complete Monster if pushed far enough (or even if just given the chance). He's proven wrong. Even so, he doesn't care; no Villainous BSoD, just an annoyed shrug and an attempt to blow the two boats sky high with his own detonator. All the while, the Joker states how he’s just out to give Gotham a “better class of criminal”. Alfred put it best when he said "Some men just want to watch the world burn."
