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.

There is an erroneous word on the Fan Works page, under the The New Order Last Days Of Europe section: "Communist member of Komi" should be "Communist Party of Komi".
- Svetlana Bukharina is the daughter of Soviet leader Nikolai Bukharin. Seeing the ruin and devastation that has befallen Russia following the Nazi victories in World War II and the West Russian War, Bukharina joins the Communist Party of Komi, vowing to rebuild the Soviet Union as a nation truly living up to the ideals for which it was founded upon. As a member of the Communist Party of Komi, Bukharina uses her persuasive talents to gain the trust of labor leaders, eventually rising up the ranks of the Communist Party and potentially launching a coup against the leadership of Komi through a labour strike. If she succeeds in taking power, she persuades Yuri Andropov to defect to her side from Mikhail Suslov's faction of the Communists, and use the information he gathered on her political opponents to launch a purge against them, leading to them being permanently ostracized or even assassinated. After reunifying West Russia, Bukharina creates a new, socially progressive Soviet Union enshrining rights for women and homosexuals, along with guaranteeing democratic powers for worker councils. Persuasive, yet ruthless in pursuing her goals, Bukharina will take any action necessary to protect the Soviets from all counter-revolutionary threats.

Bring it to the Magnificent Bastard cleanup thread so they can put the fix in the sandbox.
Shouldn't Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom be on the Locked Pages list?
Netorare has two links to Your Cheating Heart that need to be removed.

It isn't? I remember it being there before.
Nope. The 120 Days of Sodom is, but the film is not.

A merged entry on the Locked Pages page makes the most sense, then.
I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.
Done to here, but with separate entries.

Monster.Whoniverse claims that Poet Anderson: The Dream Walker is set in the Whoniverse , and I can’t find any evidence supporting or refuting that claim, so if it’s false it is to be removed.

SKREEEEEEEONK!
"Cool. Coolcoolcool."
That has already just now been brought up on the CM thread. So it will be fixed in the sandboxes soon.

And what did they say about its Whoniverse-status there?

It's not part of it. It was probably an accident that it was listed there to begin with.

Heya, I edited Sandbox.Monster Anime And Manga G To N, localizing Manga.Mahou Shoujo Site to Manga.Magical Girl Site. Do I need to wait for Tuesday to ask for it to be swapped in?
So, Fundamentalist isn't gonna be cut if I submit it, right?

Should Locked Pages mention that Badass Gay is now a disambig instead of a trope?

Locked Pages and the Mahou Shoujo edits are done. The Fundamentalist question is outside of this thread's remit, although I'll say that these cut requests on redirects are often questionable; redirects are used mainly by readers and won't show up in the inbound count, and sometimes "unused" redirects have lots of inbounds.

"Boss Hallway" is a common synonym for Boss Corridor, perhaps even more common than the actual name since it's an unofficial term and "Hallway" is the less formal word. The Giant Bomb website uses that name for their equivalent of the trope.
Could we make a redirect from Boss Hallway to Boss Corridor?

Seems reasonable.
Hello again, I'm localizing Manga.Alice Academy to Manga.Gakuen Alice, and would greatly appreciate if Monster.Anime And Manga A To F (pulling Alice Academy) and Monster.Anime And Manga G To N (transplanting the example under the new title) could be updated to reflect this. The Sandboxes have been changed accordingly. Thank you very much!

Mostly done to here. Regarding the list ^, I think the proposed text needs to be centered. Also, some of these pages aren't locked and others already have a notice.

Did the Complete Monster related request - which should be applied to the sandboxes as well - and the My Immortal one. All the requests for Permanent Red Link Club need to propose an actual writeup rather than "change this!", sorry.
