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.

I just noticed that Administrivia.Magnificent Bastard isn't locked, but now that most of the kinks have been worked out for now, I think the page is good to lock. Thanks!

The feedback I got from the other mods regarding Rob Liefeld was that it was fine to unlock the page with a warning notice. I'll do that shortly.

~Tropers/Omeganian I'd check in with the CM clean up thread to see if the that addition is needed or not. Also, please provide example writeups for us to copy+paste to articles. It makes it easier to add/edit examples that way.

^Done

Please add this to Quotes.Complete Monster:

"Marcus. Do you know how many men I've killed over the years? How many women I've taken? All these years, burning with hatred for me. And I don't even remember you! Or whoever this whore was you say I killed!"

And also please add this to the Resolved Items list on Administrivia.Complete Monster under "Definitely Not a CM":

  • Wreck-It Ralph: Turbo/King Candy (Any of the consequences of his actions that could push him over the baseline are Fridge Horror and he's unconnected to the Cy-Bugs' attack on Sugar Rush)

There have been three proposal/discussion attempts since the threads reopened and I don't think it's a coincidence that there's a renewed interest in his case when the Villains Wiki recently reapproved him for Pure Evil, so the thread unanimously agreed that it needs to stop.

Thanks as always!

VideoGame.Vendetta to VideoGame.Vendetta1991 due to Literature already been moved.

YMMV can be done manually.

Requesting that Monster.Parahumans be locked since it's a Complete Monster subpage as per policy.

Done. Please wait until you've compiled your requests to post them — editing them in after the fact makes them easy to miss.

Because YMMV.Doors and Laconic need to be split:

Literature.Doors to Literature.Doors2010

VideoGame.Doors to VideoGame.Doors2022
Characters.Doors to Characters.Doors2022

The other subpages can be done manually and are for the Video Game.

~dvx105 - See Creating New Redirects - we don't do singular/plural redirects like that. You can just go {{Standard Fantasy Race|s}} to get it to display as singular.

~MaLady - I am not sure about that game disambig. Looking it up, I am seeing both 2021 [1] [2] and 2022 as release years. Also, there appears to be another game called Doors that came out in 2022. (Please take it to the appropriate thread for discussion.)

Done to here otherwise.
