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.

Please set the page type for Ghost Rider and Blood to 'disambiguation'.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Done.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanCould you possibly delete this mention in Locked Pages?
- Pantheon.Disgraces and subpages: Request from the Pantheons thread due to persistent shoehorning of complaints.
I ask because we are in the process of getting rid of that page and that is one wick i can't delete properly
Uni catOnce the article is cut, we'll transfer it from Locked Pages to Permanent Redlink Club.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Wicks are now gone for Disgraces and I'm about to cutlist it.
For the PRLC page when it gets moved:
- Pantheon.Disgraces: Attracted huge amounts of work and character bashing that was deemed unnecessarily toxic and inappropriate for the Pantheon.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?The Disgraces thing is done.

Remove: Note: WWE has had so many of these, a page was made to contain them, and then another for WrestleMania.
Add:
WWE and Wrestlemania have so many they've been spun off to their own pages:
and change page type to Trope That Does Indexing.

Have one for Dangerously Short Skirt if it does not...ahem, skirt the site's family friendly policy.
- The Angel episode Angel S 04 E 05 Supersymmetry has Fred wear one so short that there's more material around her stomach than her legs.

Currently reading up My Rule Fu Is Stronger than YoursReplace the URL in the link with Recap/AngelS04E05Supersymmetry to make it a proper pothole.
In Dangerously Short Skirt the dangerously part means that she's an action girl so you need to say how she's fighting in it or something.
Please add UsefulNotes/ to Main.The Silver Age Of Comic Books on Comic Books and Superman.

Thanks. Also, for pre-crisis Martian Manhunter, please make the period into a slash so that the "Useful Notes" part of the link doesn't show.

Peace is the only battle worth waging.Need DarthWiki.Wallbanger wicks removed from Permanent Red Link Club (delete), WMG.Poison Oak Epileptic Trees Archive Two (delete), and Protection from Editors (delete, remove commas so sentence flows).
I think I got everything.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanI think you missed a couple Wall Banger wicks in the Poison Oak Epileptic Trees Archive Two page, Septimus.
Experience has taught me to investigate anything that glows.Ah yeah, that one's an archive so I didn't change it.
