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. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.

The quote on Subtext should be first indent, not second. Why was this trope locked in the first place. A "no examples" sticker would suffice, no?

On FiveManBand.Anime Ato D, change this line:

Detective Academy Q (aka Manga/TanteiGakuenQ)

to just

Manga/DetectiveSchoolQ

since that is the official english title.

@wilbyr:You didn't read my post properly. It's not Detective ACADEMY Q, our title is Manga/DetectiveSchoolQ

As the link seems to be broken, please remove the Marlo Stanfield picture from ImageLinks.Complete Monster.

Can someone please add this image to the Complete Monster page for American Horror Story, or unlock it temporarily so that I can? I feel that it's better than the current image because it actually shows a character doing something villainous as opposed to the aftermath of a crime. Posting it here because I'm not sure how to link images actually on the site in text:

Please pothole [up] to American Horror Story: Hotel.
Please remove the Outlaw Star and Rose of Versailles examples from Anime And Manga K To Z and the Jumping Ship example (live action films) from Disney.

[up][up] That will take a thread in the Image Pickin' forum if it's meant to replace a pic that's already there.

On Locked Pages, change Jessica Jones (2015) to YMMV.Jessica Jones 2015 for consistency with other YMMV page mentions.

Please turn indexing on for TearJerker.Anime And Manga and Characters.Anime And Manga. I redirected the current pages with the anime-only namespace to there.

Is indexing on at Community, or is that the bug? If the latter, please turn indexing on.

We've reported a bug with the page type changer where the 'does indexing' checkbox doesn't save. Setting the page type to 'index' does, however.

Oh, cool!
Somehow it shows Anime & Manga as not being in the Tear Jerker index though... [nja] Scratch that. I just had to set Tear Jerker to Index.

May I make the humble request of changing or at least deleting that image in the literature section of Complete Monster. Junji Ito can get away with it (I guess) since that IS his specialty... but not everyone wants to see an actual monster dining on the entrails of its victim...sad

Not to mention that it feels unnecessary, as is if it was put there for shock value rather than for being a good example of the trope.

[up] That image was decided on here (the crowner that voted on it isn't attached anymore, though). It's gross, but it doesn't bother me.

Can you change the page type of YMMV.Five Nights At Candys to a YMMV page.
