- 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.

Hands On Hips as a redirect to Dynamic Akimbo? Or does it have to be Fists On Hips?

This is very belated, but could we replace the description of Naughty Tentacles with the one I suggested here
? It was agreed in the thread that it would be an improvement, but no action was taken.
Can you lock Characters.Media, as according to the recent cuts page, it's been recreated and cut nine times?
In this post
in the TRS thread that renamed Wimpification back to Ukefication, it was requested that Ukefication be unlocked; if I'm not mistaken, Administrivia.Locked Pages at least used to say that the reason it was previously locked was to enforce the now-undone rename to Wimpification.
Regardless of whether unlocking the page is doable, there was also this mod post
from crazysamaritan saying Fandom Uke and Fandom Submissive (which were other names from the rename crowner) would be redirects to Ukefication, but the redirects haven't been made yet.
Regarding the Characters.RWBY Team RWBY lock, I just want to flag that Septimus Heap opened a sandbox of the page in response to a request from a troper a while back, so that the page could be updated for the most recent volume of the show.
That volume has finished and the sandbox is still open. I've suggested on the RWBY short-term clean-up thread that perhaps we should fix the wall of text issues and then send it back here for the mods to replace the live page with it. Given the length of time it's been sitting around, open, with no one sending it back to the mods makes me uncomfortable (I've flagged it a few times with the RWBY troping community; no-one's been in a rush to send it back, but if it stays open indefinitely, it effectively becomes a lock circumvention; in fairness, it hasn't attracted any problem troping, so far). However, if it's okay, it really could do with a wall of text clean up before moving everything over to the live page and tossing away the sandbox.
The sandbox is here.

If my post doesn't mention a giant flying sperm whale with oversized teeth and lionfish fins for flippers, it just isn't worth reading.On NeverLiveItDown.Star Wars, please remove the following example, as it doesn't explain why it's an unfair exaggeration:
- Captain Phasma has had it rough so far as the new Boba Fett of the sequel franchise due to lack of screen-time, and doing almost nothing of note that would be deemed badass. She was already having trouble living down her failure to live up to the pre-release The Force Awakens hype that was generated for the character where the result is her easily getting captured by Finn, Han and Chewie to force her to turn off the shields for Starkiller Base. Then Last Jedi comes around, and she's only around for one sequence where she puts up a fight against Finn, but ends up getting ousted by a sneak attack at the last second that causes her to fall into an abyss of ship explosions. At the very least, fans that follow the Expanded Universe may see her as Rescued from the Scrappy Heap after reading the Phasma novel, as it turns out she doesn't care about the First Order, she just wants to survive and doesn't care who she has to walk all over to achieve her goals.
@Septimus Heap The reason why I asked for the need to include redirects for Sdrawkcab Alias, Sdrawkcab Name, and Sdrawkcab Speech called Ananym Alias, Ananym Name, and Ananym Speech because for one, it's easier to spell "ananym" than it is to spell "sdrawkcab" plus it is also easier to pronounce, and most importantly it's good to have the option of having the redirects around just in case people do search up those tropes under that name. I mean I'm not suggesting anyone to rename the articles but to add an alternate name for them.

Crazy Wall and Evidence Board as redirects for String Theory? Both are terms used offsite (among numerous others).
Unlock, deletion and most redirects done. I stand by my reason for not adding the backwards redirects - redirects are for searchability and visibility and I don't see how these would help.

Berserk Button: misusing Berserk Button
In Monster.Video Games G To P, for the Psychonauts 2 entry, replace the Big Bad pothole in “Gristol Malik” with Overlord Jr., and in the sentence “As a child, Gristol enjoyed his decadent lifestyle and had zero concern for the suffering of his countrymen at the hands of Maligula”, add at the end “, fully supportive of her drowning non-violent protestors and once ordering her to do the same to enemy soldiers”.

One of these days, all of you will accept me as your supreme overlord.Sub Tropes to Sub-Trope so we can Custom Title "Sub-Tropes" instead of using "[[SubTrope Sub-Tropes]]" or something?

Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576Requesting this addition to DEATH BATTLE! in the Season 8 folder.
- Goku Black vs Reverse-Flash was ultimately a Foregone Conclusion. While Black's attacks could reach quintillions of times faster than light, Thawne is a Flash, who casually reaches immeasurable and incalculable speeds on a dime. Thawne also had the power advantage, thanks to generating enough energy to counter the destruction of the DC Universe, which would make him at least over 70 million times stronger than Black. While both were practically immortal to time related deaths, Black's immunity was thanks to his Time Ring. Thawne's case of immortality only ended when Barry reset his timeline, which Black lacks the ability to do. With his absurd speed advantage, and expertise in time travel, he'd eventually figure out to destroy the Time Ring, leaving Black open for any hax related kill (phasing, aging, etc). Not only did Thawne have the advantage in every point that mattered, DEATH BATTLE normally says something along the lines of how running the match over multiple times lets both sides win a few matches. They don't here, because Black lacked a way to even feasibly win.

Ghost wicks and redirect are dealt with. If memory serves the RWBY shipping wars are a chronic issue and not something tied to a specific time period, so I am inclined to decline the unlock request.
