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.
NOTE: Edited with OP's permission.

Two more NREP updates for No Recent Examples, Please!:
In the "Pages with a mandatory waiting period" section, in the usual alphabetical order, please add:
- Multiple Demographic Appeal (1 month): To prevent knee jerk reactions.
- Uncertain Audience (1 month): To prevent knee jerk reactions.
As per the Crowner results post here.
Thanks!
Hello, got an Administrivia.Complete Monster request! On the Resolved Items list, please add this entry to "Definitely not a CM":
- Berserk: The Snake Baron (fails the heinous standard compared to other Apostles like Wyald, even in the 1997 anime)
The Proposal Thread agreed he needed to be put back up after a recent proposal attempt.
Thanks!
^ and ^^done. ^^^which page?
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanHello! Lily's Poke-Madhouse has an entry for The Wiki Rule, which is now definition-only. Could it please be removed?
Doing some wick cleanup and I saw that the Monster.Fan Works has a wick that leads to Film.A Nightmare On Elm Street, which redirects to the franchise page. I already made the change in Sandbox.Monster Fan Works for it to point towards the Franchise.A Nightmare On Elm Street page, so please swap at the earliest or scheduled convenience.
I'll add to the swap list.
Ditto the Zombie.
And I've figured out how to deal with the PALADIN stuff.
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsCan someone swap the Across images of Peni Parker from Characters.Spider Man Spider Verse The Spider Gang ? The images are on the Quality Upgrade thread

Also, there is a issue in MagnificentBastard.Comic Books here, and MagnificentBastard.Spider Man subpage was forgotten on Marvel topic:

Literature.The Thirteenth Warrior has been renamed to Literature.Eaters Of The Dead. Please change the link in the UsefulNotes.Kievan Rus page back from the former to the latter. (Sorry for the flip-flop.)
Trimming the hedges, one trope at a time.Wondering about an edit request for the The Troubles page.
Going to make a change from Series.The Fall to Series.The Fall 2013. IIRC, page was done to give the BBC show a separate page.
The reviews at https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/reviews.php?target_group=VideoGame&target_title=Xenoblade should be moved to Xenoblade Chronicles 1
Stories don't tell us monsters exist; we knew that already. They show us that monsters can be trademarked and milked for years.Escape Teleport redirect to Weaponized Teleportation because "deploy a teleportation device for escape or another tactical advantage" is in the description?
Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576In Monster.Marvel Comics, specifically in What If others by publication date, there is a typo issue here:
In Captain America fought in Civil War, someone forgot to pothole correctly the Politically Incorrect Villain part.
I'll take care of that.
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsMostly done, save for Magnificent Bastard and Complete Monster edits since apparently they are being done via sandbox. Also didn't do Spider-Man: Spider-Verse – The Spider-Gang as I wasn't sure which image goes to where - perhaps that should be sandboxed.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanI request the removal of The Wiki Rule examples from Trivia.Sonichu and Trivia.The Sith Resurgence. The trope is now an Definition-Only Pages.

ValdoThat's done
Macron's notesRequesting the moments pages be locked (or possibly PRLC) for the following: Something Awful, DeviantArt, Nico Nico Douga, Ponychan, Reddit, Tumblr, Facebook due to the fact that all their moments pages were troping real life users, and the fact that the Fourchan, Twitter, and Youtube were added to the PRLC for the same reason. (I already sent the moments pages that they did have to the cut list)
Edited by BocchiTheRock on Aug 19th 2023 at 9:15:46 AM
Contesting this: at least one of those subpages had a valid example, so I've started a cleanup effort here
Please swap the following at your earliest convenience:
- Magnificent Bastard Anime And Manga to Anime & Manga
- Magnificent Bastard Comic Books to Comic Books
- Magnificent Bastard Fan Works to Fan Works
- Magnificent Bastard Film A To I to Film A To I
- Magnificent Bastard Animated Films to Animated Films
- Magnificent Bastard Literature to Literature
- Magnificent Bastard Live Action TV to Live-Action TV
- Magnificent Bastard Marvel Cinematic Universe to Marvel Cinematic Universe
- Magnificent Bastard Star Wars to Star Wars
- Magnificent Bastard Video Games A To L to Video Games (A to L)
- Magnificent Bastard Video Games M To Z to Video Games (M to Z)
- Magnificent Bastard Web Original to Web Original
Thanks in advance
WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY!Doing these...
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynman9x That's the typo I was talking about:
Reposting my previous request, since it seems to have gone unseen:
Literature.The Thirteenth Warrior has been renamed to Literature.Eaters Of The Dead. Please change the link in the UsefulNotes.Kievan Rus page back from the former to the latter. (Sorry for the flip-flop.)
Trimming the hedges, one trope at a time.Hello! Got more CM stuff.
First, per this, please swap the following sandboxes:
Then, per these two posts, please add these two entries to the Resolved Items list on Administrivia.Complete Monster, both under "Definitely a CM":
- Pan's Labyrinth: Captain Vidal (Handing over his son doesn't indicate care for his well-being, only his own legacy.)
- Scream: Stu Macher (being one of the original Ghostfaces, the brutality of his kills compared to his partner Billy, and his participation in the torture/rape of Maureen Prescott all make him heinous enough despite his low kill count.)
Thank you very much!
Hey so, noticed that there was a minor errors in the Zombie's writeup.
It's nothing big. But first off. "Zombie" is technically his actual name, "The First Zombie" is just an alias, so I feel like aside from the beginning the Zombie's name should just be mentioned as "The Zombie" or "Zombie". Second off, there's a leftover bracket in the "With a [sadistic grin on his face and enjoying the levels of depravity he pushed the once-friendly canine too, the Zombie proves himself to be far more depraved than any of his fellow cult members." So it'd probably be best to remove that.
That's all I have to say really.
My mere presence makes everyone's day worse.
