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.

At Dungeons & Dragons, please wrap the curly brackets around "necromancer" and add a pothole to Big Bad for Akhlaur's entry (under "books"). Thanks.

[up]That works. At Film A To E, for The Good The Bad And The Ugly (Dollars Trilogy), please change the Hired Guns pothole to Psycho for Hire.


Now, at DC And Vertigo:
  • Please change Lord Aratsu and President Callahan to the Vertigo heading.
  • Please then copy and paste this:

WildStorm

  • The Authority: Seth Cowie is a sadistic (implied) child rapist who calls himself the "Six Billion Dollar Bastard". Tired of the Authority's interference in their affairs and afraid of their influence on the world (particularly after the Doctor ruined two presidential candidates by causing them to make out in public), a coalition of interests decided to develop a living weapon capable of defeating the Authority. To this end, they either acquired or kidnapped Seth, an skinny, ignorant, and unambitious hillbilly with an apparent history of being sexually abused by his uncles, transformed him into a cybernetically-enhanced monstrosity, then set him loose inside the Carrier. Armed with over 1,000 post-human abilities, Seth very quickly neutralized all of the Authority, with the sole exception of the Midnighter and Jenny Quantum, who managed to steal a jet and crash it into the side of the Carrier. Despite this, Seth ripped the Carrier from its orbit and scuttled it in Antarctica. Convinced that Midnighter and Quantum were dead, the coalition allowed Seth to retire to a residence within the White House with a harem of prepubescent girls. The surviving Authority members, meanwhile, were all dumped into degrading new lives while the team was replaced by a new team approved by the seven richest governments on Earth. Unbeknownst to all at the time, Seth's scuttling of the Carrier tore a hole in the Bleed.
  • For the Wildstorm universe in general, TAO is the most vile the world has to offer. TAO was created as the Tactical Augmented Organism, growing at an amazing rate into a man. The problem was, TAO grew with a sense of cold superiority and disdain for all others. He masterminded several wars between superheroes, resulting in many casualties, in an early attempt to end the world. Using his powerful hypnotic suggestion abilities, he forced the strongest heroes into being his sex slaves to prevent them from stopping him. After these plans fail, TAO reinvents himself as the ruler of a crime syndicate where he distinguishes himself with cold professionalism combined with violent sadism. As the hero of Sleeper describes it, TAO won't pull out your guts. He'll make you do it to yourself, and enjoy it all the while.

Looking to make an edit to the Anime & Manga A to H Complete Monster page at Monster.Anime And Manga A To H

Doing a name fix, changing Manga.Akame Ga Kiru to Manga.Akame Ga Kill the official English name. Specifically I want ot change the line that says

* ''[[Manga/AkameGaKiru Akame Ga Kill]]'' to * ''Manga/AkameGaKill''

The second indent in the Akame ga Kill entry also has a typo, showing the word "slaughering" instead of "slaughtering"

In WorkPagesInMain.S to U, please remove the line for Space Patrol. It's now split and namespaced.

Also, if you could change the page type of Space Patrol to "disambiguation" instead of "work"...

Went for an unlock there, seeing as it's creating more work while locked than when it was open.

On Website.Tumblr, please edit:

  • "Film/TheAvengers" to "Film/TheAvengers2012"
  • "Series/{{Merlin}}" to "Series/{{Merlin|2008}}"

Also, please check the page type for NightmareFuel.My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic Season 5 — it's an index when it has no reason to.

What Goes Where On The Forums: should have the "Locked Pages" updated to reflect the new rules. :)

I would like these tropes + examples added to https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Webcomic/OriginalLife?from=Main.OriginalLife :

  • Adults Are Useless: Played mostly straight. The kids get up to some crazy stuff and adults rarely intervene even when it escalates into violence, such as during the Muffin Arc.
  • Compressed Hair: Charlie's bangs and ponytail turn into a mane about twice the size of her head when the cap comes off.
  • Fantastic Drug: Abby's "Ferrigno Fluid", which turns fat into muscle and reduces intelligence and sexual inhibition.
  • It's a Wonderful Plot: Fisk is visited by an angel with this in mind. He is not amused.
  • What Did I Do Last Night?: After having the effects of Abigail's drug reversed, Jeffery wakes up to find that he had basically turned into a caveman and tried to abduct Amanda before being sedated. His response? "Oh. Cool."
  • Imaginary Enemy: When she tries to kick the habit, Stacy's addiction to nicotine briefly manifests as a giant, talking, smoking cigarette trying to coerce her into relapsing.
