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
.
- 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.
- 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.

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)

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.

*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.
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
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!

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.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?
@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.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanI 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.

Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576Main.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.
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper WallWould like to add this to the Shout-Out page for Cyberpunk 2077.
- In the Many Ways to Skin a Cat gig, one of the workers in the warehouse makes a reference to a Polish stevedore named Sobotka who is involved in helping their smuggling operation.

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