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.

So the TRS merged Contralto Of Danger to Badass Baritone. As such, I want to remove the COD entry on Characters.Fire Emblem Three Houses Edelgard and replace it with this:

Can a redirect be created for Talent Versus Training to Talent vs. Training? It feels like a common misspelling.

On Sonichu, please change all the wicks for VideoGame.Sonic The Hedgehog to Franchise.Sonic The Hedgehog, since the former is now a disambiguation page.

^ I think that's an archive so it shouldn't be edited if so.

Done to here otherwise.

Can you please cut this quote from Magnificent Bastard, as it's the page quote of Fallout

"I haven't shown my hand - I've shown one card. I've given my enemies a single, provocative datum upon which to fixate. They have no idea what other cards I'm holding. It's a strong hand, believe me - I dealt it to myself."

I'd like to request the addition of this example to Double Standard Rape: Female on Male:

  • Inferno (Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle): Discussed. When the characters visit the first bolgia of Hell's Seventh Circle, where seducers are sent, Benito explains that the word that Dante used was closer to what English means by "rape". Allen, seeing women in the crowd, wonders aloud how a girl could be a rapist. Benito replies that there are other ways to force oneself onto another outside of direct violence.

LightNovel.KirbyLightNovel to Literature.KirbyLightNovel so the disambiguation isn't weird.

Narcissist should redirect to Arrogance because the two are close synonyms than Pride is to arrogance. Pride could redirect to Ego.

Narcissist is it's own trope separate from Pride, Arrogance is a redirect to Pride and why would we redirect an existing trope to a trope that doesn't exist?

~Tropers/selkies Yeah, we don't merge existing pages onto each other in this thread or merge them into non-existent pages.

[up] + [up][up][up] Hmm, we can create a new redirect for a trope here. I requested for Hates Rich People to have Resents Rich People as a redirect here and the mods did it.

But I get that these may need TRS action.

We can make new redirect out of non-existent pages but you were asking for Pride to redirect to Ego which doesn't exist. Unless you meant for Ego to be a redirect to Pride?

Note that The Ego is a redirect to The Kirk ("ego" in the Freudian Trio sense), so whatever to do with that and Pride will need more discussion (not here)

On Sonichu, please remove the wick for They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character, since that's a YMMV trope.
