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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

Done.
Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.I have come up with a decent warning for Creator.Microsoft (whether it's best commented out or posted on the discussion page is up to you to decide):
NOTE: This page is meant only to list the bare minimum information and the company's products with their own pages/subsidiaries. Please do not add any unneeded content or your opinions about the company.
And I request the removal of Main.Microsoft from Administrivia.Permanent Red Link Club. Like I said, people are almost definitely not going to see the warning in a folder on an administrivia page that is completely out of the way and not linked from the creator page in any capacity. If you actually want people to understand the decision and not use the article for complaining, it needs to be in a place where they can actually see it. Plus BWB agrees that "Pages in locked namespaces should only be listed if they weren't recreated elsewhere", which I agree with to some extent.

Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods of Incremental)Is that necessary? Has anyone tried to post opinions on Creator.Microsoft?
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessNot on Creator.Microsoft itself. The page has been seldom edited. But I'd still argue it's best this was made clear if the mods want to avoid the Main.Microsoft situation.

Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods of Incremental)We already made up our minds on keeping Main.Microsoft on Administrivia.Permanent Red Link Club. It's not going anywhere. It's staying on the page as an archived decision even though it can't be recreated by non mods anymore. Also, there are other namespaces in Main/ on PRLC besides Main.Microsoft.
As for the note Microsoft, I don't think that note is necessary as the page has yet to cause any issues.
Macron's notesFine. I still believe it's a waste to list it there per reasoning, but don't intend to argue further.

Absolute destiny... apeachalypse?That's done.
Macron's notesElementals redirect to Elemental?
* [[Film/SchoolForScoundrels1960 The 1960 movie.]]
* [[Film/SchoolForScoundrels2006 The 2006 remake of the 1960 movie.]]
* The SenseiForScoundrels trope named after the movie(s), for someone who mentors another into becoming a better person with shady, unorthodox, and usually amoral methods.
If a direct wick has led you here, please correct the link so that it points to the corresponding article.
----
Then I need to make Film.School For Scoundrels redirect there.

And as the source material, Film.School For Scoundrels does not need the disambiguation.

Ok.
TabletopGame.MouseTrap to TabletopGame.MouseTrap1963.
Then I just gotta move Laconic and YMMV.
Literature.HumanResources to Literature.HumanResources2018
Then I just gotta manually move the one edit in YMMV.

Patiently awaiting the release of Paper Luigi and the Marvelous Compass.Oh, those are page history move requests. We allow those as long as the page history isn't short and people flooding with multiple move requests. I'll move those pages.

Macron's notesFanfic.Skin to Fanfic.SkinUsagiSquared.
Awesome and YMMV will be done manually. Apparently, YMMV was just done in a single edit by Sheora? And all relevant Awesome history was lost in the crash.
Move Film.Aftermath to Main.Aftermath so a better disambig can be made, that mentions the Music and Series, and Literature.Aftermath / Aftermath2002
Film.MonteCarlo to Film.MonteCarlo2011 since 1930 exists.
The Trivia and YMMV look possibly easy enough to handle manually. A lot of minor tweaks and deletions.
Film.Joe to Film.Joe1970 because description's last sentence mentions a 2013.

- In Fallout: New Vegas, Clanden, the Serial Killer and Mad Bomber working for The Omertas, is revealed to be using the gang's call girls to make tapes of him raping and murdering them. The Player Character can use these to blackmail him, or provoke him into attacking them.
In the OP for this thread, please replace the link to Administrivia.The Content Policy And The 5 P Circuit with a link to the modern Administrivia.The Content Policy.
Per consensus on the DEATH BATTLE! cleanup thread, please italicize the wick to WebAnimation.Death Battle in the opening paragraph of CurbStompBattle.Death Battle and swap the following for the Starscream VS Rainbow Dash entry in the Season 1 folder.
* Double subverted in ''[[Recap/DeathBattleS01E17StarscreamVsRainbowDash Starscream VS Rainbow Dash]]'', which had the Decepticon lose horribly to the pegasus despite most fans expecting the opposite. Starscream's missiles and Gatling cannon were useless against Rainbow Dash in the face of his dreadful aim. She could even NoSell his Null Ray, as it's far less effective against biological organisms than electronics, and she tanks lightning strikes on a whim. Starscream couldn't hope to match Rainbow Dash's immensely superior speed, agility, and reflexes, and she soon tore him apart.

Haven't checked all the subpages, but at least WMG and Haiku are short, and none of them mention the novel. But this is one of those cases where a delay because of size makes sense.
The Audience Reactions are shorter than expected for such a long-running band.
- Thanks!

Edit additionally can the below please go on YMMV.Death Battle:
- Magnificent Bastard: Deadpool, real name Wade Wilson, is a frequent combatant on Death Battle, with his Fourth-Wall Observer powers making him aware of the existence of co-hosts Wiz and Boomstick, thus beginning a long campaign of Deadpool annoying them and the hosts trying to make him shut up. Deadpool's fight with Deathstroke has him utilizing bizarre techniques, dancing mid-fight to overcome Deathstroke's skills, while nullifying Deathstroke's healing ability with his Carbonadium sword. Later, Deadpool befriends Pinkie Pie after recognizing her as a fellow fourth-wall breaker with the two of them managing to defy the creators by messing with their past videos and ending on a death-less Death Battle. When Wiz and Boomstick try to kill Deadpool off using The Mask, Deadpool tries to level the playing field using the Continuity Gem, and when realizing he is outmatched dies content, before tricking the co-hosts into resurrecting him back to life.
Thank you
