Locked Pages: Lock, UnLock and Edit requests

@nombretomado: Then can we have the redirects mentioned here and here done as well? I believe this ATT thread eventually concluded that they are valid on account of searchability purposes.

Tweak for Film F To O:

• Mr Accident: Duxton Chevalier is a surprisingly serious and evil villain for a comedy film. He forces his brother to hand over his egg company by threatening to chop the leg off of his beloved dog and gets more sinister as the film goes on. It's revealed that he murdered his own brother after already getting the company, stuffing his body in a refrigerator and sending it through a recycling machine. He then spikes the chicken feed with nicotine in order to produce nicotine-spiked eggs to get people addicted to the eggs so he can bring in the cash. As a result, when he discovers Roger is his ex's new boyfriend, he stuffs him and his best friend in another refrigerator and tries to repeat what he did with his brother with them still alive. He then moves on to try to murder his girlfriend Sunday with an ax after she rebukes his affections one last time. After Roger confronts him on his plan, asking if baby food is next, Duxton reacts by saying: "We're working on it."

Please namespace Tim Roth to Creator/TimRoth on "Not If They Enjoyed It" Rationalization.

Fixed typo for Monster.Live Action TV:

• Perfect Assassins: Dr. Samuel Greely, the Big Bad of this Made-for-TV Movie, wants to test the Skinner box on humans. He started his tests on Ben Carroway, and framed Ben's mother as being involved when he's caught. After fleeing to Mexico, he starts an operation where he kidnaps children and locks them in boxes where he electrifies their sole food source and prevents them from forming any emotional attachments, turning them into human attack dogs, right down to the lack of language skills. He then sends then to assassinate people and then kill themselves. After he captures Ben, currently an FBI agent who's investigating an assassination done by his program, he shows him the Training from Hell that his victims go through, laughing as Sensei delivers a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown on one of his subjects. When a subject fails, he locks them in the box again, which causes them to have trauma-induced panic attacks.

Slight tweak for Literature A To L:

• Irene, by Pierre Lemaitre ^note originally titled Travail Soigné (Neat Work) in French: The "Novelist" (Philippe Buisson de Chevesne) is a Serial Killer who copies murders from various crime novels such as American Psycho and The Black Dahlia. The aftermath of these murders, which also include a rape or two, are graphically described, and were long and drawn out. There are six victims, all female, plus at least two or three people killed as collateral damage, before the killer attempts his masterpiece: using his own novel, he kidnaps Irene, the 8-months-pregnant wife of Parisian detective Camille Verhoeven, who has to rush to save her. Sadly, by the time he gets there, Irene has been killed and the newborn has been ripped out in an impromptu C-section and has been crucified. In the end, the killer writes to Camille that, in his words, all he wanted was:
  "...I was never under any illusion about my talents as a writer...my book {a new one; not the one mentioned above} will sell millions;...in the annals of literature, it will endure. These are things I could never have obtained through my talents alone. I simply sidestepped the obstacles in my path. I shall have earned my fame."

I'd like to add this Chest Monster quote to the Final Fantasy VII main page.

• Chest Monster: As is a tradition with the Final Fantasy series, the Chest Monster is present. However, it's only in two areas:
  • The first one is in the Shinra Mansion in Nibelheim. One of the second floor rooms (the one across from the bedroom Cloud sleeps in in the flashback at Kalm) has a safe in it with a number lock (the numbers are hidden in various parts of the mansion). When one attempts to open this safe, Cloud says, "I have a bad feeling about this", and gives you the option to back away (consider it and make sure you heal and save the game outside of town). Trying the safe forces the player to put the combination in order in 30 seconds (you'll blow it if you scroll past a right number), and success rewards the player with a boss fight against Lost Number, a monster in the safe. This is one of the candidates for That One Boss, but if the team is successful at killing it, they get Red XIII's Limited Moon Limit Break manual as the item drop, the Odin summon materia, which pops out of the safe, and most importantly, the key to a side room in the basement; the team MUST beat this boss and retrieve this key to get to Vincent and recruit him into the party.
  • The other is towards the end of the Ancient Temple. In the room with the clock, Cloud can arrange the hands to form a bridge to up to two doors. Doors 1 and 3 lead to booby-trapped treasure chests that each contain an enemy group exclusive to them (Door 1 has a Jemnezmy and a duo of Toxic Frogs at her side while Door 3 has a pair of 8 Eye blob enemies that can suck your health rapidly; all of them are very weak against Bio). Oh, and getting hit by the second hand dumps you into a pit, forces you to fight a pair of Ancient Dragons that surround you, and send you back to near the start of the dungeon (you'll find Cloud's Nail Bat weapon in this pit).

DTH except for

What does DTH mean?

Done to here.

I think we need an Administrivia page listing as many of such common "in-house" terms of this site as possible. Just saying.

Seriously? "DTH" is common parlance throughout the Internet.

Well, I don't know it.

So what's wrong?

DTH is common on the net. Problem is, there are multiple meanings for the initials, including down to hang and direct to home.

In context of this thread, though, the meaning is fairly easy to guess at.

Olympus Institute: Please recreate and cutlist the page to get rid of a ghost wick.

Badass Trope List: Please move the sandbox to the Main page and index on the Ambiguity Index. The list on Badass is being moved to a new page per decision in the Badass tropes cleanup thread.

Please have the following redirects done:

• World Language and Global Language to Common Tongue (it's the real-life name of the trope in a limited-to-one-planet-only context).
• Identifiable Victim Effect to A Million Is a Statistic (it's the real-life term for the trope).
• For the following Humans Are Indexed tropes:
  • Humans Are Advanced to Humanity Is Advanced.
  • Humanity Advances Swiftly to Humans Advance Swiftly.
  • Humanity Is Special to Humans Are Special.
  • Humans Are Young to Humanity Is Young.
  • Humanity Is Average to Humans Are Average.
  • Humanity Is Divided to Humans Are Divided.
  • Humanity Is Flawed, To Err Is Human (the English translation of the existing redirect Errare Humanum Est), and Humanum Est Errare (the alternative form of the aforementioned Latin phrase) to Humans Are Flawed.
  • Humanity Is Good to Humans Are Good.
  • Humanity Is Stupid and Humanity Is Idiotic to Humans Are Morons.
  • Humanity Kills Wantonly to Humans Kill Wantonly.
  • Humanity Needs Aliens to Humans Need Aliens.
  • Humanity Through Alien Eyes to Humans Through Alien Eyes.

For the entry on ThatOneBoss.Pokemon in Locked Pages, please mention that it also attracted a lot of Natter and Walkthrough Mode.

Done to here.

Jameygamer, your example was fine, but next time please link to the actual page in question.

I wanted to start a page for a film by Nicholas Ray called Johnny Guitar, I found out that the page is edit locked apparently someone made a redlink with some ZCE's and no cross-wick.

I have created a few movie pages: The Leopard, New York, New York, Chimes at Midnight and I have cross-wicked and put in proper examples and I intend to do the same for this. If need be, I will create the article in a sandbox (Johnny Guitar) and update it. But then I would have to request a cutlist for that.

So is it okay to ask for a lift on the edit-lock for Johnny Guitar.

^^ I think there was a miscommunication. Please move the content on Sandbox.Badass Trope List to Main.Badass Trope List. We decided to replace the Badass page itself with a disclaimer.

^^Unlocked.

^Sure about that name? Sounds a bit self-referential.

Could you recreate and cutlist Paul Gross for a ghost wick on Main.Slings And Arrows (it has 50 inbounds so I doubt it can be cut.

Oops.

Please add these quotes to the Quotes.Complete Monster page.

They go under Literature BTW.
At Live-Action TV, please remove The Originals and The Vampire Diaries entries, and add the following to the list of works with their own pages (but please do NOT lock the following yet):

• The Vampire Diaries (and The Originals)
