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.

Thanks [tup][tup][tup]

We Are Not Alone Index is throwing up the warnings and is about 700000 long. Because of the content, I think we should keep the page as it is and move all the folders onto their own pages. Can someone open We Are Not Alone Index Zero To D, We Are Not Alone Index E To H, We Are Not Alone Index I To L, We Are Not Alone Index M To P, We Are Not Alone Index Q To T and We Are Not Alone Index U To Z, please?

[up] Nevermind, moving them to We Are Not Alone namespace pages (WeAreNotAlone.Tropes Zero To D, WeAreNotAlone.Tropes E To L, WeAreNotAlone.Tropes M To P, and WeAreNotAlone.Tropes Q To Z) instead.

For the header at the Complete Monster cleanup thread, please put (generally 2 weeks after the US release) after "for the earliest date a work can be discussed"

On Seltzer and Friedberg, please correct "the first ''Film/{{X-Men}}'' movie" with "the first ''Film/XMen1'' movie".

Can we redirect "ENG" to Environmental Narrative Game? I assume this is already the case for "RPG", "FPS" and "RTS", but if not, it's cool.

On Political Correctness Gone Mad, the Sealab 2021 entry needs to be edited to this:

In the Sealab 2021 episode "Article 4", nearly everyone on Sealab abuses the affirmative action policy to get promoted to Captain... except for Quinn, (too proud and sensible to do so), Stormy (too stupid), Murphy (already captain), and Allen and the other Asians (whom Article 4 actually discriminated against).

Also that quote needs to be removed as it came from a different episode.

[up][up]RPG, FPS, and RTS are extremely common acronyms that are well-known among gamers (and even some non-gamers). ENG is not. As in, I literally have never seen anyone use it before your post. If I saw a game labeled as "ENG," I'd assume that it meant "in the English language."

There are a couple of Archive/ pages that need to be locked. The ATT thread is here.

These seem to be the pages, but if ~Piterpicher wants to bring others here (since they made most of these it looks like), that would be swell.

All of these are in the Archive/ namespace.

Locked all except for Magnificent Bastard Discussion: Pages ending with "Discussion" should not be created, they are supposed to be (now broken) redirects to discussion pages.

Alright, I remade that page as Archive.Discussion Magnificent Bastard, and Archive.Magnificent Bastard Discussion is being cut. Once again, apologies for the trouble.

Hi, just wondering if an entry can be added to the Double Standard Rape: Female on Male page?

  • Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: in the episode "Yes Men", escaped Asgardian villainess Lorelei compels Ward to have sex with her while he's under her control. Ward is treated as the guilty party and even guilted into apologizing to May, who treats him like crap in return. …The reveal of Ward’s true loyalties retroactively make him an Asshole Victim, but still.
