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.

Can I ask for YMMV.Equestria Girls to be unlocked? I want to create the subpage to add the following thing:
- Memetic Mutation: This is the series that caused everyone to refer to Twilight Sparkle's romantic interest from the film, Flash Sentry, as "Brad".
Unlocked YMMV.Equestria Girls.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanAlso for Schindler's List at Film P To Z, please wrap a Those Wacky Nazis around Nazi (should be "Nazi lieutenant"...).
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsOn Ćbermensch, there are some Complete Monster wicks that need to be removed.
Hoffman from Saw was cut and the wick in the music folder is straight-up shoehorning.
On Lolita this:
"Nabokov himself pointed out that this is probably the main reason why parents [[CriticalBacklash don't name their daughters "Lolita" any more]]."
should be changed to this
"Nabokov himself pointed out that this is probably the main reason why parents [[OneMarioLimit don't name their daughters "Lolita" any more]]."
Or else it could be changed to just
"Nabokov himself pointed out that this is probably the main reason why parents don't name their daughters "Lolita" any more."
Because the pothole to Critical Backlash is completely irrelevant. (As per the Laconic Wiki, the definition of Critical Backlash is "A work is so hated to the point where people are defending it".)

DTH, and went with Never Live It Down because it's the closest thing I remember that could fit there, but I am not excited about it.

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanSince you added the new Lincz entry, remove the original one. It is still there right under Lincoln Lawyer.

Work articles do not go in Main. See What Goes Where On The Wiki.
Edit: The proper location appears to be Series.Wildboyz.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Thank you for the correct link! Still stumbling my way around
Please add the Myth/ namespace to Main.Egyptian Mythology on Monster.Other Media. Additionally, Main.Darths And Droids needs a Webcomic/ namespace on Gush.Lets Play and FiveManBand.Webcomics.
ETA: VideoGame/ namespace for Main.Command And Conquer on Main.America Saves The Day. Main.BBC should be changed to Creator.The BBC on Monster.Live Action TV as well.
ETA 2: Electric Boogaloo - Main.The BBC to Creator.The BBC on Series.Doctor Who.

Removed the duplicate entry of Lincz. Gush.Lets Play, Monster.Other Media and Doctor Who have been changed; I'll take America Saves the Day and the Five-Man Band subpages en bloc.
Also, please do not edit the same post to include multiple requests. It makes it harder to keep up and there is nothing wrong with multiposts, here.

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanThe newer entry of Lincz should be before Lockout.
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsFixed that issue.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanAt Anime And Manga A To H, please remove the last sentence ("His attack...so impure") from the Cross Ange entry.
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsLast sentence deleted.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanThe WHOLE sentence (i.e. everything after "...satisfy his ego...").
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsI ask for this entry to be placed on YMMV.Avatar
- Mainstream Obscurity: In the years since its release, Avatar appears to have gone in this route. Despite being the highest grossing movie of all time, it's had little large fanbase, the fury at its themes has subsided, there's no continuing merchandise of it, and its FX had no major impact on movies aside from continuing a wave of post-converted 3D. Compare that to its previous record holder Titanic, which also was both praised and mocked for its amazing effects and cliche story. While Titanic remains well-remembered (whether fondly or not) and its lead actors DiCaprio and Kate Winslet have gone on to stardom, Avatar was seemingly all forgotten after 2009 as were its leads Sam Worthington and (almost) Zoe SaldaƱa.
