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.

Sex Slave

In the ever classy World Wrestling Federation, The Pretty Mean Sisters manipulated Meat into having sex with them, and representing them in matches. However, Jacqueline took offense to Terri Runnels using meat as an outright sex slave, eventually breaking up the group.

On the Double Standard page, in the sexist towards men section:

Hide Your Gays: Due to the old stereotypes of men only wanting sex & women only wanting love, gay men are far less depicted in the media than gay women are, and have way less off-colour jokes told about them. This extends to Real Life as well, as lesbians tend to be more accepted by friends/family in general, people trying to promote gay rights typically only show images of lesbian couples and not gay men, and so on.

For Hollywood Tactics under Film, please add

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes: The apes begin their attack on the surviving humans by charging down a narrow street, thickly packed together and making no effort to seek cover. Though they do eventually succeed in capturing the humans, they take heavy casualties in the process.

I'm stupid: At Anime And Manga A To J, please get rid of that text between the Berserk and Big O trees. I forgot to remove that.

Also, at Film A To E, Cure for Wellness should be moved up one alphabetically (before Frankenstein).

As per this ATT thread, I'm requesting a lock for YMMV.Jon Tron due to people insisting on troping RL persons.

I'm also requesting a lock on YMMV.Game Grumps for the same reason (and troping the same person, namely Jon Tron).

Please add the two pages that were just locked to Locked Pages (seeing as they'll likely be so for the foreseeable future, and they got locked in the first place for being popular Flame Bait magnets.)

Please remove the following from YMMV.Jon Tron (under Internet Back Draft):

  • This was some people's reactions of Jon's remark that people who participate in King of the Web (for those who don't know it is a popularity competition among internet entertainers where the winner gets a monetary prize that they usually donate to charity) only do it to exploit their popularity with fans to get money. This received backlash, especially because his friend Jirard (The Completionist) ran for the title one year.
  • Him retweeting a pornographic comic of Zoe Quinn has got this reaction as well. As were his comments that "She is nothing worth starting an internet campaign over."
  • Jon saying on Twitter that he's "not impressed" by The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild shortly after E3 2016 got this reaction, especially since Jon has expressed positive opinions towards games with similar gameplay concepts and similar open worlds in the past (in particular previous Zelda games).

These in particular aren't from or about his show but from his Twitter and other Internet-related activities.

[up][up][up]There's no harm in it - in fact, accumulation of redlinks can be a good indicator of when a work is ready for its own page.

At JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, please change the title potholes as follows:


Slight rewrite for Film P To Z:
Captions for CM images:
Rewrite for Film A To E:
  • Elysium: Agent C.M. Kruger is first introduced shooting down refugee ships full of men, women and children. We are then informed of his history of human rights violations, a reputation he proceeds to live up. He kills Max's allies and then when he tracks him to the home of his old friend Frey, he threatens and beats her in front of her daughter, mocking the latter to close her eyes as he claims he hates to commit violence in front of kids, before attempting to molest Frey. After Frey scorns him, he declares he'll make sure her daughter is never healed. When he's chastised for his failures by his superior Secretary of Defense Jessica Delacourt, Kruger simply murders her and then declares he'll take over Elysium itself to give it the ruler it deserves.
