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.

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsRequesting some fixes for formatting errors on the FanFic.A History Of Magic page, particularly the tropes Bittersweet Ending, Roaring Rampage of Revenge, and Sadistic Choice.
The 4chan page is hilariously outdated. Please consider unlocking it, if only to list the numerous new boards added by Hiro over the years and to update some lacking or outdated descriptions.
I should probably be doing something else with my life.I don't see the point. 4chan is not a creative work or a creator of works, so having an article for it is kind of outside our scope to begin with. It's mainly been used to trope the site's users, which is absolutely prohibited by our policies, and is why the article is locked.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"That policy significantly post-dates the page lock.
The (related) reason why the page is locked is that the topic invites bickering. So we won't unlock it but you can propose improvements here.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanAt Star Wars, for Vitiate (video games), please change the first sentence(s) to this:
Emperor Vitiate, born as Tenebrae and known as Emperor Valkorion to the people of Zakuul, and the Greater-Scope Villain of the entire franchise, was an illegitimate child of a Sith Lord and a farmer's wife.
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsMove to Fanfic.A History Of Magic, for Pages In Accidentally Miscapitalised Namespaces.
And:
"[[ApocalypseWow Humanity is extinct." to "[[ApocalypseWow Humanity is extinct.]]"
"[[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming everybody are finally reunited in afterlife.]]]]" to "[[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming everybody are finally reunited in afterlife.]]"
Category Show Genres and Show Genre are unlisted redirects to Show Genres.
[For future: Reposting in Page 669]
So, should we cut Main.Tale, 'cause it doesn't seem like it should go anywhere, as an uncoded redirect?

Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576SelfDemonstrating.The Lonely Island has existed since February 2013, yet the main page is still locked? I'm sorry, what?? Wasn't the whole reason that page was locked because of misplaced SD Fan Myopia? Now that the SD page exists as a dumping ground for said, the lock seems pointless IMO.
Please pothole the picture on Monster.Star Wars to Return of the Jedi. Thanks.
At Kamen Rider, for Wizard, please replace "these two" with "a select few"
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsFolders are in the wrong order on Underboobs. Tabletop Games needs to be above Video Games.
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.On Administrivia.Complete Monster, please change the first bullet point from:
- They must be an individual: groups cannot qualify as groups, even if individual members do.
to...
- They must be an individual: groups cannot collectively qualify, even if individual members do.
Could you please change Borrasca (Link to Part 1; Parts II-V are at that site) to Borrasca on the Monster.Creepypasta page

On Administrivia.Complete Monster, Examples Are Not Arguable and Weblinks Are Not Examples should have the Administrivia/ namespace, and Victory Gundam should be replaced with Mobile Suit Victory Gundam.
Please lock Characters.Make A Visual Novel. It's been recreated twice already.

Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods of Incremental)"straight a DownerEnding" to "a straight DownerEnding"
Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576Ahem... is there a problem with Fanfic.Sansukh?
The page does exist, along with several subpages, but for some reason linking to it produce a red link (like here).
That's odd. I tried the usual "edit and resave" approach to clearing it and no luck. Is the article perhaps using non-standard characters in the title?
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"
Requesting a lock on Trivia.Steven Universe. There's been a spaced out edit war since 2014 over whether or not CN not airing reruns/new episodes counts as Screwed by the Network by multiple people. It's currently being discussed, and having someone add it again while it's being discussed wouldn't be very good.
