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.

I don't know if The Shredder from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012) could be considered a Complete Monster or if I should bring it up here, but here's my summary:

  • The Shredder in this version is the scariest and most hateable villain in the show. He is guilty of killing Tang Shen, abducting Splinter's daughter Miwa, renaming her Karai (though it's implied he thought Splinter was dead the whole time), and raises her to hate her biological father and lies to her about her parentage. He delivered nasty beatdowns to the Turtles and no matter what the situation, he always blames Splinter for everything bad that happens to him, never admitting when he screws up. Finally, he has a sociopathic need to kill Splinter by any means necessary, thinking HE'S the monster, and was even willing to sacrifice the entire Earth and the lives of everyone on it, including Miwa/Karai, just to accomplish this. Shredder by the fourth season has proved to be the most dangerous and nastiest villain in the show, being virtually moralless and constantly playing the Never My Fault card to justify his actions.

[up]Complete Monster is undergoing a long-haul clean-up. Potential examples are evaluated at the appropriate forum thread before being OK'ed and brought here.

Please add the following to Anime & Manga for works with their own pages:

From here:
  • Natla entry/entries go to the Tomb Raider tree at Video Games L To Z, between Eckhardt and Mathias.
  • Vaughn goes to Live-Action TV.
  • Trigon and Baiul both go to DC Animation:
    • Please put Trigon under the DC Universe Animated Original Movies group, after Manta I guess? I'll have to see if we wanna organize that part by release date.
    • Please put Baiul after Joker in the "Other" group.
  • The Marvel Anime group goes to Marvel Animation, before "Other".
  • Roger/Roget goes to Yu-Gi-Oh!, before Heishin.
Thanks.

I've moved Moses in the Bullrushes to the correctly spelled title, Moses in the Bulrushes. Could you change any uses of it you find on Literature.The Bible and Characters.The Bible from Moses in the Bullrushes to Moses in the Bulrushes. (1 L in the correctly spelled one, 2 L's in the incorrect version.) This was brought up in TRS, but no-one seemed to want to do it.

Could you also recreate and cutlist Fanfic.Twin-Lance Verse for a ghost wick on Moses in the Bullrushes - even though it is misspelled, it has 194 inbounds so I left it as a redirect.

The fuck is with that game?

That's a shoehorn of Dangerously Short Skirt (none of the characters are Action Girls), plus it lacks context.

I agree, that one is questionable as written.

Gor:

  • In the example Nudity Equals Honesty, please change "the Gor novels" to "the novels" to remove the circular link.
  • In the example Public Execution, please change "Assassin of Gor" to "Assassin of Gor" to remove the link to the main redirect.

Final Fantasy VII:

  • Spoiler Cover: For the European version, a screenshot from the FMV immediately following Aerith's death scene (which shows Cloud laying her body in a pool) is on the back of the game case. It's not obvious enough to be a direct spoiler, but it does give a big hint.

Seriously, my avatar comes from the embodiment of the So Bad, It's Good trope.

As per this thread, remove the Getting Crap Past the Radar entry from The Bible, for the Bible itself had no radar when it was created. Song of Solomon wasn't thought to skip a radar, neither the weird references to sexuality were written with that in mind.

Don't know if this is the right place, but there are a few pages listed here (the related to Complete Monster page), but when I do a Control+F, I can't find where it shows up. Here are the pages:
