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.

Hi
![[up]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/smiles/arrow_up.png "[up]"){kind=icon}
, Done.
Just so you know, Septimus working on this thread for a while was part of his hazing rituals.
@9624 Well, technically, it's an invocation of Beam Me Up, Scotty!; the actual line spoken by the leader of the supposed federales confronting the three prospectors in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre is "Badges? We ain't got no badges. We don't need no badges. I don't have to show you any stinkin' badges!" The "Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges!" version is, near as I can tell, first used in Blazing Saddles during - what else? - a parody version of the scene from Treasure of the Sierra Madre.
(One of these days I'll get back to namespacing pages again, and have something to actually request in this thread.)
Officially intimidated
On Locked Pages, please add Family Friendly on Administrivia/Policy. The link shows red but the page still exists.

That's an effect of a redirect that's hard-coded in the wiki software. I'm not sure that it's supposed to be that way.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"
Family Friendly was once a proper article that was then covered by that hardcoded page, and the content below removed through a cut.

Please namespace VideoGame.Republic The Revolution correctly and update the link to VideoGame.Knights Of The Old Republic II (currently links to the first game instead) on Gush.Lets Play. Thank you!

, I understand. I thought it could still be added despite the link's color being red. I'll have to wait, then.

Regarding Family Friendly, having it display as a redlink is an issue... worth if making that into a proper wiki page would be OK, but that's discussion for moderator chat I guess.
Foe Yay is a disambig (product of a botched TRS, but still), so it can't be added.
Done to here otherwise.

RE: Foe Yay, Judas and Jesus. Just as well. Otherwise I'd be looking for a place to explain in detail certain customs of the time. Short version: A guy greeting a guy with a kiss was a sign of friendship, respect, etc. It didn't necessarily have squat to do with attraction.

Hi
Agreed; that has never struck me as romantic and I think most people reading that passage would agree, regardless of faith.
I saw a 'pagon' somewhere in Literature.The Bible and I think it should be 'pagan', especially considering idols.

Yep, 's a typo. Fixed it.

Gomer Pyle USMC needs to be removed from Administrivia.Wick Namespace Migration. For some reason, it was put in the complex section even though it is not a complex page.
Keeper of The Celestial Flame
Sorry, when I added that I was having kind of a "trees-before-forest" effect. I've removed it, anyhow.

many alchemy games make you combine tree with tree to make forest, thereby literally having "trees" (since you can have more than one in the combine area) before "forest".
Oban Star Racers can be removed from Administrivia.Wick Namespace Migration
Keeper of The Celestial Flame
Done.

on FiveManBand.Western Animation N-Z, either namespace The Oblongs to WesternAnimation/TheOblongs or delete the entry (it's 6 people in a five man band, unless one of them is something similar to conjoined twins, it breaks the rules of the trope.)

Keeper of The Celestial Flame
Hi
Since the characters in question are conjoined twins, I count them as one entity for the trope purpose and namespaced the entry, accordingly.
Please remove Main.The Authority and Main.Battlestar Galactica Reimagined from Wick Namespace Migration.
On Webcomic.Marauder Shields, a Series/ namespace needs to be added to the wick for Main.Battlestar Galactica Reimagined.

There's also VideoGame.Zorro1985 and VideoGame.Zorro1995.
