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. The Complete Monster and Magnificent Bastard tropes aren't currently adding or removing examples. Wick changes and other minor corrections to the locked trope pages can be made via this thread, but more significant changes will be declined.
  9. 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.

Should The Spider redirect to the Spider disambig, and there's these two The Spider things?

I would like to request you to change this entry on The New '20s to reflect Release Date Change:

Raya and the Last Dragon was originally set to be released over Thanksgiving weekend in 2020, but later pushed back to the spring of 2021 due to the pandemic.

Listen on the "Related" tab of Ear Worm for some time now is "Ymmv/ 28 Minute Epic", which is very obviously a glitch page. Is this the correct thread to handle those? I heard this was the correct thread for ghost wicks.

#25183: Oct 12th 2020 at 8:40:03 AM

[up][up][up][up] - Yes... I forgot to mention that...

Make The Spider redirect to Spider and add change it to be like:

''Spider'' or ''The Spider'' may refer to:

* The 1991 children's animated TV series ''{{WesternAnimation/Spider}}''.
* The 2002 psychological thriller ''{{Film/Spider}}''.
* The comic book character, ComicBook/TheSpider.
* The 1933 pulp magazine stories of ''Literature/TheSpider''.
* The InvertebrateIndex, which contains tropes that involve spiders.

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

~Ariel Lightning: Done.

~FernandoLemon: Unfortunately there is no place for such a request as we can't do anything about them.

~MaLady: Did the redirect, but the other thing can be done as a simple edit.

Main.Dungeon Dwellers Redux is giving a ghost wick to Our Elves Are Better, can a mod recreate and cut it to remove it?

On the YMMV.Heroes In Crisis page, the Family-Unfriendly Aesop entries need to be cut, as the trope was reworked into Hard Truth Aesop and these examples do not fit — being "bad" Aesops rather than "uncomfortable but true" — and are very complainy besides.

Proposing to cut the trope entry to complete the Family Unfriendly Aesop cleanup.

When reading through the monster page for Star Wars the entry for Keeper Agruss has a red link. The link is supposed to be a recap of a 3 part episode arc, it looks like the page has not been made yet. I'm thinking we can temporarily remove that link until a page has been created.

[up] Isn't the policy to leave red links up to encourage creating pages? Unless the work actually isn't a valid page?

[up]Correct. From Red Link:

However, they'll automatically shift to blue when the page is created, so always link to works even if it doesn't have a page yet, unless the work would violate the Content Policy—it makes it easier for when someone eventually writes it up.

Did the ghost wicks, as noted above removing red links is against policy.

Please add this under Tifa Lockhart's folder in Final Fantasy VII: Playable Characters:

Water Is Womanly: Tifa is associated with water. She has a dolphin-themed hairstyle, uses water-themed attacks with Waterkick and Dolphin Blow as her Limit Breaks, and is a bartender who pours drinks. In spite of her tomboyish appearance, she's a kind, giving woman who acts as the Team Mom and is devoted to Cloud.

* The web animation ''WebAnimation/{{Guardian}}''.
* The webcomic ''Webcomic/{{Guardian}}''.
* The television series, ''Series/TheGuardian''.

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

It's not exactly an urgent matter, but there's a ghost wick on Sandbox.Bolt DMC to The The Title.
