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.

On the Green Eyes page, please change Three Ten To Yuma to 3:10 to Yuma (2007).
It's asked here why DethroningMoment.Death Battle is merely locked as opposed to Permanent Red Link Club. I was wondering that myself for awhile beforehand.
I speculated it was to explain why it was locked, but Permanent Red Link Club lists reasons there so...
Any reason for that?
Yes, to explain why it's locked and prevent people from trying to remake it. I suppose I could have left a meaner message if the one there doesn't adequately get the point across...

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"UsefulNotes.Adolf Hitler: Change "AlternateHistoryDotCom" to "Website/AlternateHistoryDotCom", as part of Wick Namespace Migration.
Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576I noticed on Double Standard Rape: Female on Male that an advert featuring Roger Federer is listed under Live Action TV. As an advert, it should be under Advertising. Please could someone move it?
All caught up.
At Film P To Z and Power Rangers, for Film!Rita, please replace the last sentence with this:
Rita, in a shocking contrast to the campy nature of her original iteration, brings a level of incredible seriousness to this otherwise lighthearted and fun film and is ultimately nothing less than a psychotic, murderous monster.

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsSorry to do this again so soon, but there's been another change for Rita. Please use the one at Power Rangers (2017).
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsHow's it now?
For the Image Links page of Memetic Molester. 3/5 of the links do not work. I also would like to add this image to the image links. It's from the animated film Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory.

I took out the broken links, but I need finished markup to paste in. And honestly all these images are pretty Just a Face and a Caption.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanRita looks good. Thanks
Here's a quote for Pokémon:
Ash Ketchum: Stop, Kodai! All the trees and flowers will die!
Kodai: What do I care?! As long as my visionary powers grow, it's all worth it!
Ash: So you don't care what happens to Crown City?!
Kodai: It's true that twenty years ago when I touched the Time Ripple, Crown City withered, but no one knows a thing about that, just as no one will know what I've done today. All anyone knows is that I'm doing my level-best to capture the "evil" Pokemon Zoroark. (cackles evilly) VICTORY IS MINE!! (cackles even louder)
And here's an image caption for the same page: "Stop right there, Zoroark! One step closer and this little one is no more!"
Also, at Marvel Literature, for the novelizations, please Wiki Word Peter David for the Hulk novelization.

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsRequesting a lock for YMMV.Fire Emblem Warriors, since that page is constantly attracting a lot of complaining and bad edits.
Seconding that request.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?Redirect Requests:
Health Bar and Life Bar for Life Meter?
Mana Bar and Magic Bar for Mana Meter?
Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576Apparently the author of My Immortal has been outed, but that would only give her unneeded attention. Change:
- Old line:
''My Immortal'', by "Tara Gilesbie", is an infamous ''Literature/HarryPotter'' FanFiction.
- New line (also note the changed wick):
''My Immortal'', by "Tara Gilesbie"[[note]]which isn't her real name[[/note]], is an infamous ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' FanFiction.
Also, now that we know for certain that "Tara Gilesbie" is an alias, Creator.Tara Gilesbie should probably be locked for now to prevent people from redirecting it to her real identity. (Her real identity does not have a page, but several of her works do, making a Creator/ page feasible in the future.)
Said author's other works should be temporarily locked, but not listed on Locked Pages, until we figure out what to do. List of works in note, hidden under spoiler markup:note
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.And we know that this info is reliable because...?
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanShe pretty much admitted it, and has access to Tara's FictionPress account. Note that none of my proposed edits actually include any information that could be false.
If we don't temporarily lock the pages for her works, people will add that piece of information.
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.Big Bra to Fill: In the videogames folder, please link Christina Hendricks to Christina Hendricks.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"^Done.
^^I distinctly recall an earlier event where two different people stated to be "Tara Gilesbie". Is that FictionPress item the first mention of the work in the world?
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanIn Fan Works and Creepypasta could you change the link to Five Nights at Freddy's from Video Game to Franchise
What's the word on the YMMV.Fire Emblem Warriors lock? Septimus has been in the thread doing requests, but hasn't done that specific item nor has he rejected it.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?Please change this example:
- Many people think that A Song of Ice and Fire suffers from this. It's definitely part of what makes Westeros such a Crapsack World.
to this:
- Many people think that A Song of Ice and Fire suffers from this. It's definitely part of what makes Westeros such a Crapsack World. Specifically, in the mediaeval fantasy setting, rape during times of war is treated as an expected occurrence, there is no objection to use of the Marital Rape License, and some lords are tyrannical enough to invoke "First Night" despite the practice officially being outlawed.

On the example for YMMV.Nintendo Switch on Permanent Red Link Club, please change "pages" to "YMMV subpages".
