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.

Hi guys what's up. I just noticed that my 3rd sandbox in my account was locked due to being too long in that page. Can you guys unlock it so I can split them in sub-pages please? Thanks.

Given that almost everything was arbitrarily and spitefully taken down by Rocksmasher a while ago, is it possible someone could put back up what I wrote on the fridge section of Rayfox and whatver you guys deem appropriate for Trivia as well? And then put a lock on those pages too? They look incomplete and downright sloppy due to his lack of care when he was deleting everything.

Hi, sorry, there was a miscommunication. When I brought up the entry for Osama that seemed like misuse on Osama bin Laden, I meant the entry for the film, not the book. This is the entry that seems unrelated to the man:

  • The movie Osama — the first film to come out of Afghanistan since the Taliban banned films in 1996—is actually not about that Osama. Well, not explicitly about him.

I didn't realize there was a book by the same name listed on the page, but that actually is about the man, so please re-add it:

  • The novel Osama by Lavie Tidhar is set in an Alternate Universe to ours, where Middle Eastern terrorism does not exist (by implication, because the state of Israel was never created, either because the Holocaust never happened or more unpleasantly because it was more successful), but there is a series of Villain-Based Franchise technothriller novels about "Osama bin Laden" which echo al-Qaeda's actions in our universe. It's also the Ironic Hell for the souls of al-Qaeda suicide terrorists, who find themselves ghosts in a universe where their motivations and actions are completely irrelevant and incomprehensible.

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

On Literature.The Bible, please add this example (crosswicked from the underwicked trope page):

  • Lewd Lust, Chaste Sex: In an Older Than Feudalism example, the Song of Songs describes the anticipation and meetings between two lovers in rather racy detail, but the part about the actual intimacy is absent.

~n3xus: Unlocked again.

Done to here otherwise.

[up] As I've pointed out in the past, Sandbox3/ is not a valid namespace and you should have created them in Sandbox/...

Please remove the Instant Awesome Just Add Dragons wick from CurbStompBattle.Death Battle; the trope's a disambig now.

Example for Sex Slave under Webcomics:

  • Homestuck: Vriska's ancestor, the manipulative Pirate Girl Marquise Spinneret Mindfang, had sexual relations with at least one of her slaves, heavily implied to be Kanaya's ancestor the Dolorosa.

Another redirect request: Hypospray to Futuristic Jet Injector. Rationale: The Other Wiki uses the Star Trek term "hypospray" for the same trope, indicating that it is a popular search term, but our page has been named differently to avoid TNS. Thanks in advance.

Hi, just on the Whoniverse MB page, theres a small mistake in this entry.

  • Dalek Sec is the original leader of the Cult of Skaro and arrived in London, 2007 via the Void. Declaring war on the invading Cybermen, Sec has the Doctor and his allies activate the Ark for him, freeing the millions of Daleks trapped within. When Sec's attempts to stop the Doctor from reopening a breach fail he escapes with a temporal shift, being transported to Manhattan, 1930, where Sec supplements the Dalek's failing embryo experiments by including humans in their work, even using himself as a test subject to become a "human-Dalek" hybrid via fusion. His human emotions causing him to abandon the rampant xenophobia natural to Daleks, Sec orders his fellow Daleks to not harm the Doctor and sacrifices his life when they refuse to listen to his reasoning. Just as Sec warned, facing the Doctor leads to the destruction of the bigoted Daleks and Sec is remembered as the "cleverest Dalek ever" by his former foe.

The bit I bolded should be rampant xenophobic nature of Daleks

Thank you!
