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.

Cerberus Daily News Citadel Space: Please remove Finns With Fearsome Forests from the example list, which is not a trope but a Useful Note.

^ On any work page on the tabs at the top there is "Wiki Word" under the "more" drop-down menu. You can use that to create a custom display for the title, such as numbers or special characters.

  1. On Monster.Film P To Z, the item on the film Sahara should have its link changed from Film.Sahara to Film.Sahara 2005.
  2. On VideoGame.Final Fantasy VII, the reference to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre under the Shout-Out item should have its link changed from Franchise.Texas Chainsaw Massacre to Franchise.The Texas Chainsaw Massacre .

Requesting that Always Lawful Evil and Always Neutral Evil be redirected to Always Chaotic Evil, since they tend to be (especially the former), fairly common Sinkholes. That, and the page says they don't have to be Chaotic Evil to count.

On Administrivia.Zero Context Example, "[Name]. That is all. should have a quotation mark at the end (as in "[Name]. That is all.").
