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.

Please move the page history from Sensational She-Hulk to The Sensational She-Hulk. The Sensational She-Hulk is currently a redirect but I have already cutlisted it.

Didn't know it was locked but whenever possible may I request this get added to YMMV.Saints Row 2022:

  • Magnificent Bastard: The Boss remains a violent, yet charming and quick-thinking Villain Protagonist. Starting off as a mercenary working for Marshall Defense Industries, they show off a propensity for thinking on the fly, pulling off feats such as capturing the Nahualli and stopping Los Panteros' antique smuggling convoy, but get fired by Atticus Marshall after prioritizing protecting lives over securing a valuable artifact while thwarting a museum robbery. The Boss and their friends then decide to start their own gang: the Saints. Using a stolen briefcase full of land deeds, the Boss gradually expands the Saints into a sprawling criminal empire, financing illegal activity all over Santo Ileso, all while showing off other instances of ruthless resourcefulness such as infiltrating Marshall's Frontier Prison with trickery and defusing a bomb planted by the Idols before using it to destroy their yacht. But despite their lack of mercy for their enemies, the Boss is fiercely loyal towards their allies, treating even the low-ranking Saints with respect and going to great lengths to help their closest friends, up to assisting them in taking their own vengeance when they wish to on multiple occasions.

[up] Are you suspended? If yes, then you should see the Edit Banned thread to appeal and get your editing privileges back. I don't know how else one could not be able to edit.

Well, sorry to say but you're going to get pointed back to the right thread for improving your grammar regardless.

You can't bypass your edit ban by asking others to make edits for you as far as I'm aware.

I'm fairly sure that restoration of your editing privileges can be considered if you make the effort to improve your grammar (that's for the mods to decide, I haven't been suspended before but that's the typical process). Just have faith in yourself.

Editing on behalf of an edit-suspended user is not allowed. Though if there's an objective problem someone may fix it independently. Anyway, it's not in-topic to this thread.

Apologies for this being off-topic, but I have to clarify something. Aceina, you were told back in 2020 to go to the Get Help With English thread to improve your grammar, and you haven't posted in there once. You were not permanently suspended, as far as I can see.

Again, I'm sorry for continuing to be off-topic, but what Aceina said is demonstrably false.

EDIT: I fixed the link before I realized this whole thing was happening, but that was because the new link didn't go to the game, just some random blog.

Can I request that the Biker Babe link on Characters.Final Fantasy VII Playable Characters (under Tifa's folder, Silk Hiding Steel entry) be deleted since the trope has been merged with Badass Biker. Also, if there are any other Biker Babe potholes on the page, can those be removed as well? Thank you.

Please unlock LightNovel.To Aru Majutsu No Index (a redirect), as the reason for its lock no longer applies. We don't have Japanese purist page move vandals nowadays.

Besides, with the LN namespace on its way out, it's better to have it unlocked so that whoever moves its target A Certain Magical Index to Literature/ can quickly retarget the redirect instead of asking here.

On the Alternative Character Interpretation section on Megamind, Hal's behaviour is said to have been theorised to be - and I quote - "symptomatic of an Ambiguous Disorder." Now, from what I have seen, Ambiguous Disorder is currently under discussion and has been substituted with Diagnosed by the Audience. Should that part of the edit be edited (and replaced with something like; "Some believe Hal's behaviour is symptomatic of some form of mental disorder) or should it be removed, while leaving the rest of the edit as is?
