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.

For Let's Play, there are two instances of King's Quest that need the VideoGame/ namespace.
Hi
Done and done.
The quote on Wall Banger should probably have a link to our page on Dorothy Parker. Make sure you namespace it too.

Done, and Penny Arcade too.
Wikipedia: Remove:
Our Super-Strict Language Policy: Very similar, minus funny being acceptable.
That link redirects to Family Friendly, which is not a policy associated with Wikipedia.

On Monster.Video Games, there's a pothole to Awesome.Video Game Bosses. Please either remove the pothole, or change it to AwesomeBosses.Video Games. Thank you.

There has been a consensus long time ago already, that Hedorah and Destoroyah don't count as Complete monsters, the former because he is ZERO-context example. Both examples are on Film page. Can they please be cut?

Student of Story
Wanted to add this trope example to The Bible:
- Sympathy for the Hero: Many versions of the Pntiius Pilate story show him having this for Jesus, and admitting that Jesus has broken no Roman laws.
If something similar could also be added to Pilate's bit on the characters page, it would be appreciated.

Rewrote that example a bit.
* SympathyForTheHero: Many versions of Pontius Pilate's story show him having this for Jesus, and admitting that Jesus broke no Roman law.

The voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground
On Fallen Creator, there are two instances of Signs that need to be changed to Film.Signs.
Hi
Hi, I'd just wanted to add a person on a list of LP's, but the page for Let's Play seems to have been locked. I can request a moderator to add that person for me here, right? If not, please point me in the right direction ^^;
So yes, incase I'm right, please add Nuttylamb to the list of Let's Players :)
Also, what DTH mean?

Done To Here. Other words: all requests up to that particular mod-post were committed.

Done to here. We have a policy against acronyms for a reason.

Hi
Fine, I'll start putting in a random string of characters when the requests are completely caught up.
Ah, thank you very much :)
On complete monster Film page, there are Sweeny Todd examples and two should be cut.
- In those cases above, the aforementioned Villain Protagonist - Sweeney Todd - is more so of an aversion together. The reason he counts as a Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds instead of falling into this territory is because of what Turpin put him though. Not to mention the fact that his wife and daughter were taken away from him.
The example CLEARLY says that he is an aversion. It was decided by mods many times already, that aversions and subversions should not be listed. Can the line be please cut?
Lovett should be cut too since she is more of a example of Love Makes You Evil and said "Everything I did I swear I thought was only for the best". Everything has been pointed out in the CM cleanup thread.
