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.

Can you in Highlander change in Xavier's entry from this

After losing a hand to Mac Leod, Darius would team up with the Immortal-hating Hunters with a bargain that revealed the depths of his lack of honor:

[up][up] It's just minor correction. I want only to replace Darius's name with Xavier's.

Done to here, including the Highlander edit as it's too trivial for the thread.

Minor edit on Fifty Shades of Grey:

Under: Esoteric Happy Ending

  • The first book actually has a potential inversion ; ➡️ The first book actually has a potential inversion;
with no space between inversion and ;

(Assuming this is an actual typo and not the formatting showing up weird on my phone. Page is locked, so I can't tell.)

Permanent Red Link Club: Nuking The Fridge/Nuke The Fridge is listed twice, under "Pages locked for being cut then recreated" and "Potshot redirects".

Actually, I feel like the latter category (whose only other entry is Fox Cancels Everything) should be merged into "Pages cut and locked due to being nothing but complaining" due to being The Same, but More Specific.

Removed one duplicate mention, I don't think it's necessary to cut the entire section.

Please remove the following from NeverLiveItDown.Star Wars

  • Han is forever remembered for having his Solo surname given to him by an Imperial Navy recruitment officer. It's mostly poked fun at by fans for how odd it is that the film felt it was necessary to tell the story of how Han got his last name.

Per NLID cleanup, it's misuse as it's a fact, not unfairly exaggerated moment, better fitting Fan-Disliked Explanation or Narm.

IdiotPlot.Star Wars

The expanded universe explains this; because Vader experienced so much pain and suffering on that planet, he would not want to set foot there again.
Conversation in the Main Page and Justifying Edit. Cut. Natter. Cut.
The people behind Padmé's assassination attempt make no other attempt to kill her again after failing only twice. They could've easily have hired another shapeshifter or someone of equally inconspicuousness to track her down and once on following her to Naboo then kill her. Boom, problem solved. Although since their ultimate goal in the attempt was to remove the opposing political leadership before a critical vote they may have just called driving her into hiding a win.
Contains a Justifying Edit that explains why it's not stupid. And if we're being real here, the people wanting to kill Padmé are stupid because she opposes the Military Creation Act, and their goals would be a lot easier if she succeeded. Cut the whole thing.

Mikey Spletzer, your request was actually actioned on the sandbox page by someone else. Also, edit requests aren't an urgent matter, they can wait a day.

Did the Aliens Made Them Do It and IdiotPlot.Star Wars edits.
