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.

Hair Color Dissonance and Inconsistent Coloring should redirect to Hair Colour Dissonance and Inconsistent Colouring. Most other tropes that use "color" redirect to a version with "colour", and the other way around.

Apply the Folderizer to Main.Chekovs Gun.

Remember that the last folder made by the tool, needs to be closed by adding [[/folder]], yourself.

Unless there's actually an approved migration to JustForFun.Chekovs Gun, then apply it there.

No, that migration should not have happened. The point of Chekovs Gun is that if you misspell Chekhov's Gun you land on a joke page. Putting it in a different namespace defeats it. I'll redirect the JFF page.

From here:

    Live-Action Films 
Godzilla
  • Godzilla: Invasion of King Ghidorah: King Ghidorah is as bad as ever. While Godzilla himself, the son of the original, is no saint, he at least has the Freudian Excuse of his father's death at the hands of humans, and Mothra helps him and some other monsters see that not all humans are bad. Ghidorah, however, arrives on Earth via a meteorite and immediately sets out to conquer the planet. The first thing he does after arriving on Earth is using his gravity beams to destroy Tokyo. Ghidorah then faces off with Godzilla and Anguirus, torturing them with blasts of electricity when they refuse to join him. Ghidorah then sets about destroying the island of Osaka, massacring scores of people, before finally being driven off the planet.
  • Godzilla Neo:
    • Space Godzilla was initially a massive meteorite of crystallized energy capable of emitting psionic energy. After destroying a NASA space shuttle, Space Godzilla crash landed on Infant Island and kidnapped Junior, Godzilla's adopted son. Turning the city of Fukuoka into his new crystal fortress, Space Godzilla used some of Junior's DNA to form a new body for himself and eagerly awaited his upcoming fight against Godzilla and MOGUERA. He nearly killed Godzilla while he was reuniting with his son and once his powers started going out of control, he destroyed MOGUERA and summoned a black hole to destroy the world simply out of spite. After being banished to another realm by Godzilla, Space Godzilla spent the next thirteen years honing his powers and planning his escape. Implied to be responsible for the Crystal Incursion of 2007, Space Godzilla hoped to finally defeat Godzilla and absorb all the Power Crystals on Earth, which would turn him into the most powerful being in the galaxy.
    • High Inquisitor Axor was an advisor to the Empress of Mu and used his powers of mind control to achieve higher standing in society. Longing for control over the Mu Empire, Axor used his powers to enslave Balkzardan and Jyarumu and threatened to unleash them upon Mu if the people did not accept him as their new emperor. When Manda tried to protect Mu, Axor ordered the many people he had previously used his powers on to take up arms and rise against their protector. After the Empress ordered her loyal advisor Shisa to leave with Manda and find reinforcements, she was taken prisoner and tortured by Axor, who was hoping to break the Empress's spirit and turn her into his new slave. Shisa returned with Mothra and the armies of Infant Island and challenged Axor to a duel, losing due to Axor's cowardly tactics. Axor was stabbed by the Empress and in order to ensure his victory, transferred his soul into a statue of a dark god and used his new powers to enslave Manda. Axor was finally defeated thanks to the combined efforts of Mothra and King Caesar, but he had secretly planted explosives that were set to detonate in the event of his death, ensuring that his homeland would be completely destroyed along with him.

Others

  • The Dark Knight Trilogy fanfiction The Joker Blogs: Most versions of The Joker qualify for this trope, and this version is no exception. To name a few of his crimes, he kills people on an almost regular basis, held Lisa Arkham hostage and threatened to kill her if her husband Dr. Arkham didn't comply, kidnapped and tormented both Nurse Pearl and Lyle Bolton, and gradually manipulated Harley until she snapped.
  • The Punisher (2004) Fan Film Dirty Laundry, starring Thomas Jane: Goldtooth is a vicious gang leader, drug dealer and pimp who crosses as many lines as he can in his limited screentime. When he sees one of his prostitutes who owes him money, he beats her up and rapes her, while letting his men rough up her two friends. He then sees a small boy who refused to run drugs for him, and has his men beat and threaten to kill the kid. When a mysterious stranger takes note of this, Goldtooth threatens to kill him too if he tries to interfere. A wheelchair-bound shopkeeper soon reveals that he was incapacitated when a gang, implied to be led by the same gang leader, did the same thing by killing a young girl for refusing to become a drug runner.

Thanks cool

Love Stinks:

''Love Stinks'' may refer to: * The [[Film/LoveStinks film]]. * The trope known as NoHuggingNoKissing, about a mandated lack of romance in a work.

If a direct wick has led you here, please correct the link so that it points to the corresponding article.

Agreed. There's only four inbounds to that page and no wicks. It doesn't seem like people get confused enough to warrant a disambig page.

  • 16891 - cut it instead due to above-mentioned low inbound count.

Escalating Prank War to Escalating War, because there's already two wicks for it, and Prank War is a TLP.

Requesting a link to Song of Songs added to The Bible. It should go in the list of biblical books with their own pages, between the Book of Ecclesiastes and Book of Isaiah.

At DC Comics, please move Krona from the end of the Green Lantern tree to the beginning.

Also, since Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will be getting its own page, please change the quote at Western Animation to this:

"One-Eyes win again! I shall gnaw the Golden City to the bone, and I shall spit it out! No one is left alive to warn them! One-Eyes, One-Eyes, the day of death has come to the Golden Land! And I shall conquer the Golden City! I shall trample and break them, and not show pity! No man escapes the Mighty One Eye!
Mighty One Eye, whilst standing Atop a Mountain of Corpses, The Thief and the Cobbler (original workprint/Recobbled Cut)

For the entry itself, please change Big Bad to Blood Knight.
