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.

Pantheon.Pending Gods has at least one link leading to For Massive Damage, which will need to be removed/replaced with an applicable trope, as FMD is an index.

DTH, save for that Pantheon thing for the reason I already gave earlier in this thread.

On Radar.My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic, please remove the first entry, about the episode "Look Before You Sleep". As per the Getting Crap Past the Radar cleanup thread that's Parental Bonus, not GCPTR.

Please turn on indexing for The Main Characters Do Everything.

Please explain to me this indexing again? And on that note, do Characters.Criminal Minds (to include Characters.Criminal Minds Unsubs) and WMG.RWBY (to include WMG.RWBY Characters) need indexes switched on?

Could you turn Monk into a Recap index?

At X-Men, please change the "villains" pothole (and de-capitalize it) from X-Men Villains to X-Men: Rogues Gallery. I don't know if there's any hyphenating you have to do.

Hello again. I'd like to ask to index the nightmare fuel page of SCP Foundation. I splitted it for better working.

Thank you. [tup]

Can someone please edit the Microsoft Windows page to add info about Windows 10? It's been bugging me because I wanted to add that myself, but the page is locked for some reason.

[up] It's locked because people kept putting opinions on it. However, it says at the top of this thread that you must provide the specific markup (or changes to markup) that you want to have added. Write it up and post it as you think it should be included on the article.

DTH save for ^. Also, having read the Ozai entry on Western Animation I am getting a rather strong Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking impression.

Was switching wicks from The Dev Team Thinks of Everything to Developer's Foresight as per this thread and found that there is at least one instance it in Ad of Win: Archive (2010), a locked page. Request all instances of The Dev Team Thinks of Everything, including potholes, be changed to Developer's Foresight.

Pardon, but we don't edit archives.

I was not aware of that, my apologies. This is my first time involved in a major cleanup.
