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.

Please add the following to Main.Stockholm Syndrome.

  • Fetishized Abuser: The audience is meant to consider an abusive character attractive.

On Lolita, please change the Overprotective Dad entry to Boyfriend-Blocking Dad, since the former is now a disambiguation page.

Also, please remove this sentence in the entry for Crazy Jealous Guy (to get rid of another Overprotective Dad wick):

In this strange case it overlaps with Overprotective Dad.

Since I noticed that someone else incorrectly used the capitalization fix page to request this, please move Funny.Atop The Fourth Wall 2022 Episodes 700 To Present to Funny.Atop The Fourth Wall 2022 Episodes 700 To 712.

Would it be fine to request Mechanical Animal to be made as a redirect for Mechanical Animals?

[down]Noted, thanks.

We don't do singular and plural redirects. You can use {{Mechanical Animal|s}} (Mechanical Animal) if you want the trope to display as singular.

Add this to the live action film section of Quotes.Magnificent Bastard.

"I wanted my plan to be as cost-effective as possible. So, I've used what I could obtain in this planet, including Zarab. By having them fight you...I made humans feel physically powerless. Revealing the Beta System made them intellectually powerless. I wanted them to learn first hand their dependence on the mighty. You have been instrumental in instilling humanity, my idealistic notion of unconditional obedience to extraterrestrial life. I am very grateful to you.You are the first succesful example of human fusion. It was also demonstrated in my experiment. Thanks to that, we now know that humanity is an effectve biological resource and can be converted into a powerful and formidable weapon. I want to have absolute dominion over this abundant and precious biological resource before it is ravaged by other intelligent life. That's my only interest, Ultraman. "

Edit suggestion for YMMV.The Bible: Memetic Mutation: "Biblically accurate" angels have become a common joke among some modern readers on the internet. In the texts there is a hierarchy of angels, in the lowest ranks they are more human-like in appearance, meanwhile in the highest ranks they are angelic abominations, the latter is often compared to many monsters originating from H. P. Lovecraft's works.

Done to here, save for some overly long titles. Also, remember to move the indexes over.

Is this quote for Llandu'gor, the Flayer, from Warhammer 40,000 good for Complete Monster?

"To those who have turned their faces away. To those who are faithless and wretched in their jealousies. To those who have denied us. To those who have denied me. I will wreak vengeance. I will wrench your souls and break your bones. I will cast hunger through your accursed existence. Down the eons, you will not forget. I will grant you this gift from love turned aside and make you like me, break you in my image as you have broken me. I shall cast the fear of myself into you and all of your kind. I am Llandu'gor. I am the hunger. I am the flayer, and from this moment, you shall be too."
Llandu'gor, the Flayer, Warhammer 40,000

Also, this quote:

"When I look upon the lesser races I am filled with disgust. Left to their own devices, they lead lives that are pitifully brief and completely devoid of meaning. How many of their generations have passed by in my lifetime? The answer is beneath my attention. Yet with the correct application of my art, each of those wretched beings can be made to endure an eternity of suffering, and it is through their screams that they show me their value."
Urien Rakarth, Warhammer 40,000

Add these to The Super Mario Bros. Movie:

  • 555: The plumbing advertisement features Mario and Luigi's plumbing number as 929-55-Mario.
  • Head Desk: In the second trailer, Peach drops her face in disbelief after seeing Mario fail the obstacle course.
  • Ominous Clouds: Bowser's castle is shown in trailers as being accompanied by dark clouds.
  • Personal Space Invader: In the second trailer, while crossing a bridge, a Cheep-Cheep flys itself onto Mario's face.
  • Springy Spores: In the teaser, when Mario arrives in the Mushroom Kingdom, he bounces off one before landing on the ground.
  • Tactical Door Use: During the teaser trailer, while fleeing from a group of Dry Bones, Luigi runs towards a castle and holds down the entrance before they could catch him.
  • Who Writes This Crap?!: In the Mario Plumbing ad, the woman acting for the commercial is confused by the script she's reading.
    Woman: Thank you, Super Mario Bros! It seems like the only thing you haven't drained is my bank account?
