Locked Pages: Lock, UnLock and Edit requests

I'm suggesting some edits for the Complete Monster page of Sword Art Online

The list

• Sword Art Online is an unpleasant place to live in, due in no small part to these characters.

• Vassago Casals, also called PoH (short for Prince of Hell), is forced to become a criminal because of unfortunate circumstances, but he proves his vileness by willingly becoming a murderer. After entering SAO to kill a target, Vassago becomes the founder of the Laughing Coffin guild, where he rallies together the worst of those trapped in the game and has them slaughter their fellow players, simply for the sheer joy that Vassago takes in seeing East Asians kill each other. Later betraying his own Guild and abandoning it to die, Vassago corrupts other players and sends them to kill those who had participated in the Laughing Coffin's downfall. Vassago later returns as a member of Glowgen Defence Systems, becoming Gabriel Miller's right-hand man and leading Gabriel's invasion of the Human Territory. When Japanese players appear to try to contain the invasion, Vassago contacts unaware players from China and Korea, lies to them about the situation, and connects them to the Underworld. After finding a comatose Kirito, Vassago tortures him and promises to torture his loved ones to death and kill everything else in the Underworld. A sadistic murderer, Vassago proves his sheer vileness by always taking bad situations and making them worse for his own amusement.

Please come to the thread to discuss those changes.

Also, dammit, my bad. Please re-swap the following if you would:

• Monster: Marvel Animation for Marvel Animation (indentation issue)

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM Drafts

On Monster.Video Games G To P, the wick to VideoGame.Makai Toshi Sa Ga needs to be changed thus: [[VideoGame/TheFinalFantasyLegend Makai Toshi SaGa]]

Likewise, on Monster.Final Fantasy, the wick to VideoGame.Makai Toshi Sa Ga needs to be changed to VideoGame.The Final Fantasy Legend.

After consulting the CM thread, there seems to be a reason this entry is found under both names — I assume it's because this is both a SaGa and a Final Fantasy game, depending on region.

Thanks.

Shouldn't both of them be at the localized name?

I had a dog-themed avatar before it was cool.

*shrugs* Both links go to the localized title. I just potholed under the old name on one of them. If both entries read "The Final Fantasy Legend" in the visible text, they'd be identical and there'd be no justification for one of them to exist. And the CM thread suggested that the entry should probably be kept on both pages. So that was the compromise I came up with.

Done to here.

The last request to lock NightmareFuel.Super Smash Bros Ultimate was declined without explanation. More background on why it should be locked:

• First version of an example about Sephiroth's trailer after it came out
• Gushy entry about Galeem
• Example about Sephiroth was re-added immediately after cutting
• First post supporting a lock
• Needs cleanup
• Discussion about the Sephiroth entry being repeatedly re-added
• Entry about Sephiroth is re-added
• Last comment before I requested a page lock

It's also mentioned that the page has three images.

I'm back!

That's done now, I wasn't certain the first time round that locking was warranted.

How does the following sound for Final Fantasy VII?

• Cutting Off the Branches: As shown by the Compilation, as well as other future Square Enix games, the Optional Party Members, Yuffie and Vincent, were canonically recruited.

Hi, swaps for this week:

• Anime & Manga to Magnificent Bastard Anime And Manga
• Comic Books to Magnificent Bastard Comic Books
• Fan Works to Magnificent Bastard Fan Works
• Film to Magnificent Bastard Film
• Literature to Magnificent Bastard Literature
• Video Games to Magnificent Bastard Video Games
• Western Animation to Magnificent Bastard Western Animation
• Nasuverse to Magnificent Bastard Nasuverse
• DC Animation to Magnificent Bastard DC Animation

Cheers!

Request to create Badass Tropes as a redirect to List of Badass Tropes.

Looks reasonable, except that Square Enix shouldn't be italicized.

The entry for NightmareFuel.Super Smash Bros Ultimate on Administrivia.Locked Pages should probably say "persistent" instead of "penetrant".

Do you think it's safe to unlock Chadwick Boseman now that several months have passed since his death?

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

Probably. If issues flare up again, it can be re-locked.

So, the Joe Biden page already has a Wall of Text describing the riots of the 6th. When also factoring in the past two presidents’ pages having been locked and more recent developments, is it safe to suggest it time for that page as well before it devolves into an Edit War?

Honestly just lock at least till things cool down in a few months hopefully.

@Kytseo: A bit basic, but added it. Did the rest. Regarding the Biden page, I am tempted to cut all the contemporary politics stuff and replace it with a link to Wikipedia. It's way too detailed for troping purposes.

I would like to request an edit of Fallen Creator to include Adam Rosner of The Slender Man Mythos on this page. His webseries, Tribe Twelve was considered one of the "big three" Slender Man series alongside Everyman HYBRID and Marble Hornets, and had been ongoing since 2010. I'm not sure where This is what I had in mind for adding to the page:

Adam Rosner, creator of the Slender Man webseries Tribe Twelve was a prolific and well-respected creator that was heavily involved in The Slender Man Mythos, alongside the creators of Marble Hornets and Everyman HYBRID, even crossing over with the latter series a few times. Both fans and creators alike respected Rosner’s devotion to the series, on top of writing, producing, and editing it independently (mostly) for over 10 years, in spite of production slowing to a crawl in the later years due to him attending medical school in New York. His reputation completely changed overnight on September 7th, 2020, when several girls and young women (one of which was Heather Faller of Dark Harvest) gave credible evidence that Rosner had attempted to groom and/or rape them as young as 15 years old, on top of having incredibly disgusting sexual kinks, and an inability to feel empathy for anyone but himself. Since then, Rosner has done everything in his power to unperson himself from the internet, and his fellow Slenderverse creators have condemned him for his actions, to the point of being a Persona Non Grata. With the addition of a recorded phone call Rosner was on with one of his abusers being made public, on top of a damning statement made by fellow online creator and former friend Nick Nocturne on the matter on January 9th, 2021, the chances of Rosner ever making a return to form are slim to none.

I don't post on discussion pages too much, so I hope I'm doing this correctly.

Trust no one.

For sorta consistency, since we apparently use both "Repellant" and "Repellent"

Main.Casino Empire appears to be creating some ghost wicks. Could it be recreated and deleted?

Nick Nocturne should be potholed to Night Mind, but otherwise that looks good.

Holy shit, I...didn't hear about any of that. Been out of the loop as far as these things are concerned. That's wild. Example sounds totally valid.

Current Project: Incorruptible Pure Pureness

Would like to add this to the Shout-Out page for Cyberpunk 2077.
