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.

I just moved all the Homestuck Trope Example subpages to a namespace without a hyphen; can someone remove them from the "Administrivia: Hyphenated Titles" page?

Please add to One Piece – Fish-Man Island Arc:

  • Complete Monster: Hody Jones is a Fishman who takes Arlong's Fantastic Racism and turns it Up To Eleven. He's not only more brutal, more racist, more treacherous, and more cruel, but he pulls a reversal on Arlong's sole Pet the Dog moment: whereas Arlong was mortified when Luffy used a Fishman as a human shield, Hodi himself uses a Fishman as a human shield against an attack. One of Arlong's former crew, Hatchi, stated that, while Arlong was a bastard through and through, he'd never hurt a Fishman no matter what. Hody, on the other hand, is known for killing any who talk to or know them. When he tries to take over Fishman Island, part of his plan is to execute all who had signed Queen Otohime's petition. This means that he's planning to murder thousands of its residents. He already killed Otohime and framed the human he hired to burn the petitions in the first place as part of this plan, and even got cocky enough to brag about it in front of all Fishman Island.

Add to Monster.Film

  • Vampire Circus: Count Mitterhaus, the vampire ruler of the village of Steitl in this Hammer Horror film seduces the wife of a village leader so she will bring him children he can feed on. Mitterhaus actually opens the film draining and murdering a little girl and slaughtering her rescue party when they come. After they manage to get lucky and stake him, Mitterhaus vows he will have the lives of their children to restore him to life. From beyond the grave, he instructs his mistress Anna to find his cousin Emil and carry out a plan 16 years in the making. 16 years later, Emil and Anna return with 'The Circus of the Night' and under Mitterhaus's plan begin to murder the village children so their blood can revive the Count. Upon revival, Mitterhaus attempts kill every human at hand, not even caring about the fates of those who had served him so loyally- even his own children.

  • Kalifornia Early Grayce is a paroled murderer who mocks the idea that evil can be easily explained or given a root cause. Initially traveling with his girlfriend Adele, a rape survivor who considers Early her protector, Early meets the psychology student Brian Kessler and his girlfriend Carrie, Early initially acts friendly, while murdering bystanders for money. When Brian and Carrie find out, Early takes them hostage before killing investigating police officers. When they arrive at the house of an elderly couple, Early beats the husband to death before murdering Adele when she allows the wife to flee. Early decides to make Carrie her replacement and sexually assaults her, mocking Brian for bringing up his abusive father in an attempt to touch some humanity in him afterwards.

  • Almost Human: Giulio Sacchi is a two-bit thug looking to hit the big time. After a failed job, Sacchi rapes his girlfriend to blow off steam before deciding to kidnap a young woman who happens to be the daughter of a very wealthy man. Giulio and his gang purchase guns from a supplier who requests a hefty security deposit so the guns will not be used for murder, but Giulio promptly murders the old man and his wife before kidnapping the target and killing her boyfriend. When she flees to a nearby house, Giulio kills the old man at the house to make a point to the rest of the family and accidentally shoots the little girl when she surprises him. Without remorse, he massacres the rest of the family and proceeds to murder his girlfriend to keep his cover while confessing to her he has no remorse. After abusing his captive, he kills her after he gets the ransom and kills his friends as not to share it.

Brother–Sister Incest has a pothole in the page quote. My understanding is that this is not allowed.

Bigotry in the name of inclusion is still bigotry.

Done to here. Regarding [up], in this case the pothole is a neat way of clarifying information which would be found in the original source, so I think it's fine; it's not troping something or adding new information.

Also unlocked YMMV.One Piece Fishman Island Arc since it was locked as a cut page and I think (please correct me if I'm wrong) that its only issue was being empty.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

For Kalifornia, please have the colon after the title and wrap a Serial Killer around Early's name. Also, for Mitterhaus:

  • Vampire Circus: Count Mitterhaus, the vampire ruler of the village of Steitl in this Hammer Horror film, seduces the wife of a village leader so that she will bring him children he can feed on. Mitterhaus actually opens the film draining and murdering a little girl and slaughtering her rescue party when they come. After they manage to get lucky and stake him, Mitterhaus vows he will have the lives of their children to restore him to life. From beyond the grave, he instructs his mistress Anna to find his cousin Emil and carry out a plan 16 years in the making. Sixteen years later, Emil and Anna return with "The Circus of the Night" and under Mitterhaus's plan begin to murder the village children so their blood can revive the Count. Upon revival, Mitterhaus attempts kill every human at hand, not even caring about the fates of those who had served him so loyally-not even his own children.
