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.

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsHmm, that's annoying...please use the new Jinmen link (removing everything after the jpg); otherwise it's too small.
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsHow does it look now?
Y'ello. As I mentioned in the "Rename YKTTW" thread, could you guys redirect Trope Launch Pad to Main/YouKnowThatThingWhere until the admin-level redirect is implemented? Thanks.

she/her | TRS needs your help! | Contributor of Trope ReportPlease recreate and cutlist Richard Stone for a ghost wick on Main.Taz Mania
Keeper of The Celestial FlameCould you create the following redirect links for Freaky Electronic Music, please?
Slight tweak; please replace the last 3 sentences of Red Skull's entry at Marvel Comics with this:
When his daughter, Sin, was born, Schmidt planned to kill her for the crime of being a girl; he continuously abuses her. While in a relationship with Mother Night, he brutalized her constantly. With an end goal of reducing society to its most primitive, dog-eat-dog levels, Schmidt is universally despised in both the superhero and supervillain communities.
Forget it, Forgot I could do that.

Keeper of The Celestial FlameTweak for Holcombe's entry at Criminal Minds:
- Charles Holcombe from "Legacy" views homeless people as subhumans who should be exterminated, so he kidnaps them and brings them to his torture chamber, where he puts them through agonizing physical and mental torment before dissecting them alive. He has been killing for a long time, with over 60 victims. Holcombe even gives them the opportunity to escape by telling them they can leave if they make it out in a certain amount of time, but if they manage to do it, he knocks them out with gas to avoid their escape. His last words are "Just let me do my job!"
Tweak an entry at Übermensch:
The entry
- Miracleman: Miracleman He was actually developed by an ex-Nazi scientist, as it happens.
should maybe be
- Miracleman: The title character— who was actually developed by an ex-Nazi scientist, as it happens.
