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.

Lucid Seraph: Please recreate and cutlist the page to get rid of a ghost wick.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Bara Genre: Please change the redirect Fan Yay to LGBT Fanbase.
On Administrivia.Handling Spoilers, please put the rule against hiding character names in character pages (which I will highlight) into the numbered section to make it more visible.
It should (probably) be written like this:
4. On character pages, don't hide the name of a character in folders or headers. Try to use an alternate, non-spoiler name given by the work or a generic title (e.g. "The Killer" in a murder mystery).
Tagging ~Fighteer to ensure this is correct, since I know this issue has been brought up in ATT multiple times and this is all based on my memory of his Word of Mod on the subject.

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM Drafts@ The One Who Tropes: I apologize for the late reply.
I tried page source mode, and I couldn't edit anything using it. The page Monster.Anime And Manga K To Z cannot be edited by me whatsoever. I was requesting a change from Bigger Bad to Greater-Scope Villain due to the change in names and because it's locked.
Both examples are, as The One Who Tropes pointed out, are potholed and can be found via page source and ctrl+f.
Please cut Aki Honda (also goes by the name Shadow Star) from Monster/Anime And Manga K to Z.

Please delete the Doraemon example from Political Correctness Gone Mad. The anime refers to Doriyaki as "yummy buns" and doesn't have a healthy vibe at all, it has been culturally translated everywhere it airs and the Japanese owners want it that way. Not an example, more Executive Meddling, like most of the Square Peg Round Trope on that page. Also, it hasn't been added to any of the Doraemon pages, or has been deleted as Blatant Lies or Complaining.
The response I have got so far is the trope should be made In-Universe Examples Only, which removes a lot of the examples, but there are still enough for it to be viable, especially if examples which parody the attitude are allowed (like the Series.Doctor Who one.)
