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. The Complete Monster and Magnificent Bastard tropes aren't currently adding or removing examples. Wick changes and other minor corrections to the locked trope pages can be made via this thread, but more significant changes will be declined.
  9. 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.

Regarding Main.My Immortal, the page is already on Wick Namespac Migration, so it can probably be disambiguated even with wicks.

[up][up][tup] If you want to stop for now I understand, but before you do, could you please add Godzilla to the film index and lock?

The Video Game section is done, except for the Tomb Raider edit, as I think that was covered in one of the later posts. Also, I went ahead and did the Watch Dogs edit in the summary list although I think it replaced a more concise version in a later post.

[up][up] Understood; I'll take care of that later.

[up][awesome] Oh, and that's my bad, should be Legacy of Kain; I mistakenly added a "the".

[up] Got it. I've also done the following quick-fix edits in what's left: the Godzilla, Dracula, and Prom Night entries for Monster.Film; the Mission Impossible and Monster.Joss Whedon edits under Monster.Live Action TV (although the latter might get turned into a redirect to CM since it has >10 inbounds).

Gonna break for now, if I have time I'll get the rest (or as much as I can) knocked out tonight.

8396: Not done; we discussed that one and decided it didn't fit the trope closely enough.

So Work Pages In Main and Creator Pages In Main are locked again, eh? Hope it won't last long. In the meantime, please remove Waking Life from V To Z.

The film is also mentioned in the Richard Linklater section of Fallen Creator. That should be namespaced as well, but the Linklater section needs a lot of work; Linklater's name isn't hotlinked, the film Slacker isn't hotlinked either, and Film.School Of Rock is mistitled as Main.The School Of Rock, which is a Red Link.

I see that the link to the new Godzilla subpage was added to the film page for Complete Monster. Thank you. However, the old entries for Godzilla still need to be removed from the "G" folder on the film page.

In Creator Pages In Main, please remove Jessica Walter since I namespaced that page.

The Monster.Live Action TV edits in the summary post are done...thought I'd have more time tonight, but apparently not.

8401 is done.

I've brought 8310 up in the page quote discussion thread and will go with whatever's decided there.

8314, 8326, 8347, 8393: Done.

Why was A History of Magic locked? A note with the reason should be put on Locked Pages.

Spoiler policy violations, maybe? Then again, there was just one cleanup edit and Ed doesn't usually lock after a cleanup edit, so it may be a mistake as well...

~rexpensive, they are already there. Work Pages In Main has been split and they are on its subpages.

Sorry, I did check the sub pages but I guess I missed them.
