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.

It is a subpage. The bug that is causing the YMMV symbols to show up on the bullets is going to be fixed.

Please change the header at Video Games to:
You're really going to be glad when you defeat these characters in your Video Games...unless it's the rare occasion where you're playing as them.
Examples from Visual Novels can be found here.


Please replace the appropriate entries at Dragon Ball with the stuff here. Mainly potholes and syntactical issues,

If it's true that our old glorious dictator admin Fast Eddie is still on-staff as a mod, he should probably be added to Administrivia.Know The Staff.

For Adminisitrivia.Locked Pages, please make the following changes:

All Anime Is Naughty Tentacles: Restored after being cut due to NSFW content.
To
All Anime Is Naughty Tentacles: Restored after being cut. Locked as a precaution due to NSFW content.


Laconic.Artistic License and the Laconics of all the Artistic License-X pages, to prevent the restoration of the completely useless "X DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY! GOOD NIGHT!!" meme.

Done. Noting here though that nobody can create pages in Main without a YKTTW, contrary to what Fighteer claimed in the overhaul thread.

On the Brown Eyes trope page, this addition needed to be added to the Sailor Moon example.

Inexplicably though, in the S movie Luna's eyes turn blue when she turns human.

A request for That One Boss/Pokemon:

Wataru/Lance’s Dragonite in Yellow. In Red and Blue, he wasn’t significantly problematic, apart from knowing Barrier, which Dragonite has never been able to learn. note  Not here. Got a water-type that knows an ice move, the dragon type’s only weakness? He knows Thunder. An actual ice type? He knows Fire Blast. A rock or ground Pokémon who knows a good rock-type move, since Dragonite is part-flying and therefore vulernable to rock moves? He knows Blizzard. Get ready for a tough fight.

At Other Media, please replace Bobble (Web Original; SCP) with this:

  • SCP-993: Also known as "Bobble the Clown", this Depraved Kids' Show Host functions as The Corrupter to children. Using the power of television, Bobble would send viewers above the age of 10 into a trance while they were shown graphic acts of Bobble committing murder and other evil acts. Many of the children would grow up to become Serial Killers themselves. Bobble himself describes himself reaching into the heads of children and happily twisting them. By his own admission, Bobble has been creating monsters for "quite some time"—apparently he has been tormenting humanity since the caveman days—and has even given his child victims instruction on how to release monsters from the SCP Foundation that could cause the end of humanity.

The wicks to Xbox, Xbox 360, and Xbox One on the same page also need to be namespaced.
