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. Some locked pages have ongoing cleanup threads, like Complete Monster (Thread), Five-Man Band (Thread), and Magnificent Bastard (Thread). Other than purely technical requests, edits to these pages ought to be discussed in these threads first.
  9. Also, we do not do direct edits (other than changing wicks) to Magnificent Bastard or Complete Monster example lists. Rather, you need to do the edit to a sandbox page that follows the format Sandbox.Magnificent Bastard<Name of the example subpage> and Sandbox.Monster<Name of the example subpage> (e.g for Monster.Disney it's Sandbox.Monster Disney) and ask for it to be swapped in on Saturday for Magnificent Bastard and on Monday for Complete Monster.
  10. 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.

Film.Loverboy Tri Star, perhaps? It's better to use a single disambiguation (the distributor) rather than a double disambiguation (the country and year).

I would like to propose a new Web Video entry for Political Correctness Is Evil:

* SF Debris: Chuck's review of the Star Trek: Discovery episode "Through the Valley of Shadows", he discusses how a number of fans had taken offense to Pike's horrified reaction to seeing his future (with the incident that left him fully paralyzed in his iconic chair), claiming that it represents an overly negative view of people with disabilities. Chuck points out that there is nothing remotely ableist about showing a character traumatized by a traumatic event.note

Done to here except:

  • Loverboy (1989) - I think discussion on how it should be moved should be done in the disambig/title collusion thread. I'll hold off on moving it until there's consensus.
  • I think I'll pass over title disambiguating The Division. I don't think future proofing is that urgent right now.
  • Michiru Yamane would be a stub Music/ page with no tropes if I moved it. I think I'll cutlist it instead.

Add a Season 9 Folder to DEATH BATTLE! with this addition.

Thor vs Vegeta: Vegeta's boast about having evolved beyond Gods turned out to be an empty threat against the strongest Avenger in one of the ugliest stomps of the show. Experience-wise, while Vegeta trained all his life, Thor has fought a wider arsenal of foes for millennia, giving him a distinct advantage. While the strength gap wasn't too bad compared to other fights, Thor was still ten times stronger, and this was from giving Vegeta benefit of the doubt. Ultra Ego's damage absorption could theoretically let him reach Thor's level, but with the ludicrous speed advantage Thor had, being 70 quadrillion times faster than Vegeta, this meant that Ultra Ego would get overwhelmed before attaining that level of power. Another major key factor in Thor's victory was how Mjolnir could absorb energy attacks, shutting down every one of Vegeta's ranged ki attacks. While Vegeta did have a way to absorb the energy back via Spirit Fission, Thor's speed advantage meant this likely wouldn't happen. That and Thor can just use Mjolnir to will the energy out of Vegeta. While Vegeta fought in the Tournament of Power for an hour, Thor has fought an army for over a month straight, giving him a stamina advantage. The final nail in the coffin was the comparison of their most powerful attacks; Hakai and the God-Blast. Hakai ended up being useless, as Thor has resisted being erased from existence, physically, spiritually, and temporally. The God-Blast on the other hand, was capable of killing Galactus, a being that can threaten the infinite multiverse, a feat no one in Dragon Ball has been able to match. Thor's information also notes that he is the current owner of the Odinforce, which wasn't taken into account during the verdict, implying that said stomp could've been even wider While Vegeta's pride let him put up a fight, the Prince of the Saiyans was completely outclassed by the Son of Odin in every single way.

In the page for The 120 Days of Sodom, the Incest Is Relative entry should be changed to Parental Incest. Also the Loads And Loads Of Characters entry should be removed outright (I already moved the contents of that to the trivia page).

My bad. Please re-swap Monster: League of Legends for League of Legends. There are a few things I'd forgotten.

And in case it's already been cutlisted, please change the quote and image as follows:

"Lucian looked up into Thresh's ravaged features. His eyes were voids, dark holes into emptiness. Whatever Thresh had been in life, nothing now remained. No compassion, no mercy and no humanity."

Battle Only Item for Arbitrary Equipment Restriction? Since apparently items that can only be used in-battle are one type?

What do you mean by one type? As for the redirect, not sure about it as trope is broader than equipment you can only use in battle.

The Twins are multiple things, and Laconic needs to be manually split. Not sure if we want to merge the disambig into Twins.

...

WesternAnimation.TheTwins to WesternAnimation.TheTwins2000
Trivia.TheTwins to Trivia.TheTwins2000
VideoExamples.TheTwins to VideoExamples.TheTwins2000

...

VideoGame.TheTwins to VideoGame.TheTwins2020
Funny.TheTwins to Funny.TheTwins2020
NightmareFuel.TheTwins to NightmareFuel.TheTwins2020
YMMV.TheTwins to YMMV.TheTwins2020


Other uncontested disambiguations. Will write them out eventually.

Film.Emergency to Film.Emergency2022

...

All subpages seem to be for the Series?

Series.Emergency to Series.EmergencyUniversalTelevision

[up] Series.Emergency Universal Television is a very unusual disambiguation, and I don't believe it saw any sort of consensus on the disambiguation threads...

^^ & ^^^ Done.

^ Eh, I don't think those are needed. Searching for the first one will give you Caught on Tape in the search results so I don't think we need to have it as a redirect. The other two are just shortened forms of Big Honking Traffic Jam and Hollywood Restraining Order. Also, I think the Restraining Order gives the false impression that Hollywood Restraining Order is about restraining orders in general.

I don't think we need them for searchability purposes.
