Hi, could you please change this page (Deltora Quest character page) into an index page? This series has heaps of characters and it would be easier if it had the sort of main series character index Game of Thrones has.
Also, could you please change this page (Dragonriders of Pern character page) into an index page? Like Deltora Quest, it has loads of characters and I think it would be better off with the sort of character index Game of Thrones has (like I have mentioned above).

~rafi: We don't use unlocks for that scope. Just ask here.
~Chericola: Done, but remember that new pages are not automatically indexed. You'll have to re-edit the index for it to work.
DTH otherwise.

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanPlease delete the following Memetic Sex God wicks:
On Green Eyes, change The Hunger Games examples to this:
- Finnick Odair and Annie Cresta from The Hunger Games are both described as having beautiful "sea green eyes", which actually seems to be a common trait where they come from, District Four, the fishing district. While Annie is noted several times as being a quite lovely young lady, this trope is even more fitting for Finnick, who is essentially Mr. Fanservice.
On Perverse Sexual Lust, delete the wick.
On Sonichu, delete the example alltogether.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Please replace Mana Ouma's entry (from Guilty Crown) at Anime And Manga A To J with this:
- Mana Ouma is what happens when one combines all the worst aspects of a Yandere and an Omnicidal Maniac. She was first shown to be sweet, caring, and gentle, but is revealed to be much more disturbing. When she was five, she was infected by the Apocalypse Virus, but managed to gain control of it. When her brother, Shu was born three years later, she developed a twisted obsession of him, claiming he was the "Adam" to her "Eve" of a new race. Many years later, when Mana found out that a boy she and Shu rescued developed romantic feelings for her, she tricks him into killing himself, before wearing that boy's blood as lipstick and confronting Shu, telling him that it was time to "mate." When Shu rejects her, she snaps and unleashes her virus throughout the country of Japan, killing millions of people before crystallizing herself. When she was reincarnated many years later, she tries to "mate" with Shu once more, even attempting to rape him. When Shu finally stands up to her, she decides to spread the virus throughout the world destroying it, killing billions (if not more). While she claims to have fallen in love with Shu, her "love" for Shu seems to just be a possessive desire, claiming he was already hers before he was even born, supporting her twisted ideology of ruling over a new race. In the end, she was just an extremely depraved individual, who was willing to destroy the world just because a guy rejected her.
Please replace Dandy Mott's entry at American Horror Story with this:
- Dandy Mott is a spoiled heir who takes the Psychopathic Manchild trope Up To Eleven. He exhibited signs of sociopathy even in childhood, and is heavily implied to have caused another boy's disappearance. As an adult, he has become bored with his lavish lifestyle. This is alleviated when he meets Twisty, a Serial Killer who has kidnapped several young children, whom Dandy is shown gleefully tormenting psychologically.note Dandy later becomes a killer himself, after being introduced to "the sweet language of murder." Two of his many victims are another childhood friend and his own mother, the latter of whom he turns into a giant Dead Woman Puppet after bathing in her blood. While he asserts that he identifies with the freaks, he talks down to them and uses the term "freak" to insult them, even after correcting his Dragon for doing the same thing. After they get fed up with his mistreatment, they walk out on their contracts, so Dandy calmly strolls around their campgrounds and shoots them dead as he sees them. Despite his claims of being in love with the Tattler twins, he treats them like possessions rather than human beings, and it's quite obvious that whatever "love" he feels for them is purely narcissistic. Though he presents himself as a cultured aristocrat, Dandy is ultimately just an overgrown child who never quite grew out of the mentality that everyone and everything exists solely to entertain him and bend to his will.
Please either cut Discworld or have it redirect to Literature, and then add this to Literature A To L:
- Discworld
- Wyrd Sisters: Lady Felmet is modeled after Lady Macbeth, only more sadistic and cruel. The Duchess participated in the overthrow and murder of King Verence I for her husband Leonald to gain the throne for her own benefit and power. Once she inherits her position, she encourages a brutal suppression of peasants and witches alike while using the Fool to spread a propaganda campaign. Revealing herself as a sadist who loves Cold-Blooded Torture, Lady Felmet personally engages in inventive torture with captives. When Granny Weatherwax removes the mental walls she put up and shows her all the evil in her own mind, she shrugs it off, being fully aware how evil she is and not caring.
- Hogfather: Jonathan Teatime is a Psychopathic Manchild who horrifies even hardened criminals who’ve earned their reputation on murder. Lord Downey let him into the Assassin’s Guild out of pity that his parents died, only to later suspect that he killed them. If he is sent to kill someone, he will mercilessly slaughter them, their family, and their pets. He kills any accomplices he has the instant they're not currently useful to him, not excepting Ankh-Morpork's most gifted lock-picker who was an incredibly valuable asset to the Guild. The most terrifying thing about him is that he honestly doesn't understand that his sadistic behavior is wrong. He sees no difference between having a friendly chat with a man and stabbing him to death.
- The Fifth Elephant: Wolfgang Von Uberwald is a Sadistic werewolf. Before the book starts, he murders his little sister, Elsa, because she isn't a bimorphic werewolf and, as such, is "impure". He takes the werewolf tradition of hunting humans through a forest, and adds the cruel twist of giving them the illusion that they've escaped before ripping them to shreds. He doesn't care about all the political power he and his family can gain through the civil unrest; he just likes being sadistic.
- Night Watch: Captain Findthee Swing, the leader of the Unmentionables, is the reason his time period is so corrupt. Swing is a Tautological Templar who uses people's measurement arbitrarily to decide whether someone is good or bad in his eye. He sees himself and his supporters, such as the psychotic Carcer Dun, as good and his enemies and victims, like hero Sam Vimes, as evil. When Vimes enters Swing's base, Vimes sees people who have been physically and mentally tortured, one of them is so broken that he does not resist when Vimes kills him without hesitation. Vimes finds Swing about to torture a man tied to a chair, before he comes in to fight Swing to the death.

My Immortal: Please change the Fail O Suckyname entry to "Darkness von Gothick" Name and alphabetized accordingly.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Heya, could we make Jim Bernheimer's page an index? I'd like to add all of his books to his page and add pages for them all.
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/JimBernheimer
Hentai currently has two quotes on the top of the page, so one needs to be moved to the Quotes subpage. If I have a preference, the top one (a Memetic Mutation) should be the one that's moved.
x2 You probably need to bring this up in the page quotes thread, which can be found here
.
The Vampire Diaries Main Characters: Please change the Fail O Suckyname example to The Unpronouncable, and alphabetized accordingly.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"- This stuff

Constantine
- Jacob Shaw from "A Whole World Out There" is a demented, Ax-Crazy Serial Killer who evaded punishment after getting caught by transferring his mind from his body to a Pocket Dimension found during his occult studies, where he essentially became a god-like Reality Warper, able to live out his sick fantasies as much as he wanted. When a group of teenagers accidentally trespasses into his realm, he takes this as an opportunity to live out his sadistic pleasure even more. He starts hunting the teenagers in the real world by appearing on reflective surfaces, driving them nearly insane, and then brutally killing 3 out of 4 via impaling, dismembering with a knife and suffocation. Afterwards, he keeps the souls of the deceased in his realm, where he keeps on torturing them and tells them that they will experience a never-ending circle of getting hunted down and killed by him, all just because he enjoys it.
- "The Man," from "Waiting for the Man," is introduced as a Satanic redneck who abducted three little girls. Said girls are almost mindlessly devoted to him; how that happened is not made clear, but it involves getting married to him, with a collar and bruise marks around each girl's necks. He sends them off to find another bride for him, and while waiting for them to return he brutally tortures and murders a bypassing, helpful man in a ritualistic way, for seemingly no other reason than being near him at the wrong time. Later, it is revealed that "The Man" murdered his real wife six years ago as a sacrifice for Satan and when John gets to his lair, he finds the aforementioned three girls murdered in bed, with the fourth girl only surviving because she ran away and was saved by John's crew in the nick of time. "The Man" is such a despicable individual that John and Jim Corrigan decide to outright murder him instead of just having him face the law. What worse is that, unlike magic-empowered villains like Jacob Shaw, "The Man" is, aside from being a Satanist, completely normal.

Webcomics
- This trope is used to imply rape more than anything in Drowtales where we see Mel'arnach being dragged off by soldiers under the orders of her mother Quain'tana
. Information in other parts of the site confirms that yes, she was sexually abused by Quain's soldiers at points in the past, though this specific incident hasn't been explicitly confirmed to have been a rape.
