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.

1) Why can't Cool Copter or Cool Jet be added, because respectively: it said helicopters are included in that page and from what I can tell from that picture there are jets in it?
2) For the plural thing: it is because I see "Cool Planes" at the bottom of said page.
3) And remember the titles for "Noble Male, Roguish Male" and "Light Feminine and Dark Feminine" titles in which those were horribly denied? That's because one of the titles I noticed: "Girly Girl and Tomboy" at the bottom of the page Tomboy and Girly Girl.
4) Define "snow clones" in this website.
Hello,
I am requesting an update for the Pædo Hunt page (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/PaedoHunt). I would like to create a Webcomics folder and add the following:
In The Letters Of The Devil, it is revealed that Chuck Castor had an affair with an underage intern and subsequently killed her when she revealed she was pregnant.
Thanks!
Ben Wright-Heuman Cartoonist Extraordinaire www.BWH Comics.com Please visit my webcomic, THE LETTERS OF THE DEVIL, at www.LOTD-Comic.com- 15915: What is your proposed revision?
- 15926: Try the Quotes thread for choosing a new quote and then come back here if approved.
- 15927: Please read this forum post, this Administrivia page about redirects, and this Administrivia page about snowclones. We do not create redirects for regular plurals as they serve no benefit. Anything that could be found with "Cool Plane" will be found with "Cool Planes", for example.
One of the main purposes of redirects is to enhance the amount of views on a page significantly. If Cool Plane is already a search result for "cool jet", there's no need to create a redirect for Cool Jet. We will not be creating the requested redirects because it's highly unlikely they will increase traffic.
Done to here otherwise.
At Comic Books, please replace the appropriate content with the folderized content at Complete Monster Drafts.

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsWould someone please replace the commented out Ron the Death Eater example on Fire Emblem Gaiden with this:
- Ron the Death Eater: Faye is obsessed with Alm to the point of dismissing the idea of hanging out with anyone else and a bit too eager to kill his enemies to get his attention, but unlike popular fandom portrayals of her as an unhinged Yandere she accepts that Alm doesn't return her feelings gracefully and is nothing but friendly to her love rival Celica.
Based on what Fighteer said in Ask The Tropers semi-recently about how Ron the Death Eater should never be on a parent work's YMMV page, that entry probably needs to be deleted.

Just for reference, linking to the Ask The Tropers query where Fighteer mentioned Ron the Death Eater should not be placed in the parent work's YMMV: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/query.php?parent_id=48705&type=att
I want to make a few changes for Complete Monster entries:
- On Monster.SCP Foundation
- For the SCP-993 entry, in the line "...shown graphic acts of Bobble committing murder and other evil acts", replace "murder and other evil acts" with "murder, cannibalism, torture, and other evil acts."
- For the same entry, for the line:
Behind the scenes, Bobble describes himself as reaching into the heads of children and happily twisting them."
Add the following line after it:
It also reveals that his acts of violence might not be entirely fictional as he dismembers a Foundation doctor on TV and causes the doctor to disappear in real life. - For the James Anderson entry, the part "...young girls young as eight..." should be "...girls as young as eight..."
The above three had been looked over and approved in the cleanup thread. I also want to make one more request for a minor edit to another entry written by me on Monster.Anime And Manga A To J:
- In the entry for the character Sato in Ajin, the sentence:
"...and assassinating 15 government and corporation officials, all the while killing everyone in his way"
should be:
"...assassinating 15 government and corporation officials, and all the while killing everyone in his way"

ᜇᜎᜈ᜔ᜇᜈ᜔|I DO COMMISSIONS|ᜇᜎᜈ᜔ᜇᜈ᜔In Hollywood Tactics, Literature section, the Codex Alera example, adding to it:
- Also averted with the Vord. A Hive mind Zerg-like entity, the Queens of the Vord are resourceful and cunning. They regularly lay traps to draw enemies out, target their enemy's heavy hitters, such as the Aleran's aforementioned firecrafters and earthcrafters, and their medics to increase wounded and other detriments. When they first emerge from their slumber, they move patiently and in the shadows of societies, analyzing it for weak spots to attack. They will drive a society to civil war if possible just to make them weaker. The Queens can produce new forms of Vord for combat, such as small human-shaped ones with wings to fight humans with flying capabilities or hulking beast-like ones to face against the 8ft tall wolfmen. One queen facing said wolfmen spend hundreds of her soldiers in a months long siege, just to make them feel complacent and think they could hold out indefinitely all the while, she had her army slowly dig a massive tunnel into the wolfmen territory to attack. Another Queen, the eldest, hid her takers, tiny worm creatures that if they enter a person kills the person and makes them a slave inside hundreds of crows. Crows, being carrion creatures, are regularly seen around battlefields and preceding it. So when the First Lord of Alera saw the huge flock, he thought nothing of it until all the crows dropped suddenly and the takers exploded out of the corpses.
At Comic Books, for Clive Barker's Next Testament, please change Wick, "The Father of Colors," to Wick, "The Father of Colors",...

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsPlease change the name "Mie Tian Hi" on Monster.Anime And Manga K To Z to "Mie Tian Hai". I have done some research and identified that this is the actual name in Chinese pronunciation, and "Hi" is most likely a typo.

For Final Fantasy VII, please add:
- Eco-Terrorist: AVALANCHE believe that Shinra Corporation's Mako reactors are harvesting the very soul of the planet to generate electricity. Their solution: launch violent raids on reactor sites, slaughter Shinra's guards, and bomb the reactors.
The page quotation for Squick is Not An Example. In the scene it's from, he's referring to sulfuric acid in his eyes, not to merely seeing something disgusting.
Not sure what to suggest as a suitable alternative, but I'd rather it have no page quotation at all than use a non-example.
