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.

[up] I don't think that's necessarily a mistake. It's basically saying "the rampant xenophobia which is natural to Daleks," but I think the "which is" is grammatically optional.

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

The season finale of Amphibia which was supposed to air yesterday, got leaked on iTunes today. The creator of the show has made it clear that he doesn’t want people to watch the episode until it airs properly. Despite this, people are posting spoilers from the leaks for the episode on the subpages. Because of this, I’m calling for a revert and a temporary lock on subpages, probably until the episode airs properly.

I made the Doctor Who change in the sandbox to get swapped in on Friday - I made it “rampantly xenophobic nature of Daleks” to make it flow the best

Edit request for Monster.Gamebooks: replace the Bee Afraid wick in Bythos' entry with the Scary Stinging Swarm wick, as it involves hornet swarms, not individual bees/bee species depicted as menacing.

Locking the Laconic for Amphibia might be overkill. Nobody is going to shoehorn spoilery content in a single sentence... at least I'd hope not.

Also why lock the Video Source page? If there's a spoilery video, just remove the video itself. Not blaming you for just locking everything, just don't want people to grumble if they can't make tweaks to pages that are not at risk of spoiler content.

Can I get Ittle Dew moved to Ittle Dew 1, and replaced with:

''Ittle Dew'' is a series of ActionAdventure games developed by Swedish developer Creator/{{Ludosity}}, named after its protagonist, but also a PunBasedTitle: "Ittle Dew" is a nod to the game's ''Zelda'' influences (It's not ''Zelda'', but it'll do).

It consists of:
* ''VideoGame/IttleDew1'' (2013)
* ''VideoGame/IttleDew2'' (2016)
----
!!Tropes used across multiple entries:
* HeartsAreHealth: {{Heart Symbol}}s drawn on paper, are used for the LifeMeter.
* HeartContainer:
** ''VideoGame/IttleDew1'': After collecting sets of four scraps of paper, Ittle draws a new heart on them to add to her LifeMeter.
** ''VideoGame/IttleDew2'': Boxes of crayons are used to draw hearts to add to Ittle's LifeMeter.
* LifeMeter: HeartSymbol-type HeartsAreHealth. * LineBoil: Done intentionally, generally used to indicate what can be interacted with and what is just scenery.

There're ghost wicks on Dragonlords and I Am Tim. Could those pages be recreated and cut?
Also, on Tropes, there's a Main.Trope Overdosed wick that should be changed to JustForFun.Trope Overdosed

Thank you!

The subpage FanWorks.Sponge Bob Square Pants is locked, probably since it was cut a while ago, when it was still automated.

There is now enough content spread out over FanWorks.Western Animation to create a correct FanWorks/ sub-index for this series.

Hence I'm requesting the unlocking of said subpage so I can recreate it. Thanks in advance.

Can you please change the quote on TearJerker.Amphibia to:

"So True Colors leaked. Way to go Disney. First you delayed the episode for insane reasons, then you couldn't even get it together and not let the content slip out. This has been the worst week of my career, I'm not even going to try and keep it professional."

Actually, on TearJerker.Amphibia, both the quote that's on there, being a shortened version of the one just proposed, and the meta section need to be deleted.

Per TRS, Shocking Swerve is now a redirect to Ass Pull, so the wick on Internet Backdraft needs to be removed, and the wick(s) on Fallen Creator need(s) to be changed or removed.

I'm requesting the creation of a "Crisis" disambiguation page, following moves of several of these works to disambiguated titles:


"Crisis" can refer to the following works:

If a direct link led you to this page, please correct it so that it points to the proper wick above.


Thanks in advance.

[up] The last one should be formatted as [[Fanfic/CrisisThuktun CRISIS]], not Fanfic/{{CRISIS|Thuktun}}, to avoid having to submit a second request when that page is moved to the correct capitalization.

#26450: May 5th 2021 at 4:45:14 PM

[up] - Eh? Why would a second request be needed? The page is already made, so all that curly-ing is doing is making the code shorter? No one can remake the page and force that bad capitalization...
