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.

Two things: One: If you want a moderator to close your thread, click the holler button. It looks like a warning sign, and two: Since you finished your project rather quickly (only 6 days) you should probably post these sorts of short projects in Short Term Projects instead.

Karoshi:

''Karoshi'' may refer to:

* The [[VideoGame/{{Karoshi}} videogame]].
* The {{Workaholic}} trope, for the idea of someone dying by overwork.

If a direct wick has led you here, please correct the link so that it points to the corresponding article.

At Film D To J, please move the Death Warmed Over entry before the Death Warrant tree.

A slightly revised pre-Crisis entry for DC Universe:

  • Justice League of America: The bloodthirsty Commander Benn Blanx, from issues 71 and 144, is the Evil Counterpart and Arch-Enemy of J'onn J'onnz. Blanx restarts a war between two races of Martians and exiles J'onn, whom he later tracks to Earth to kill, murdering countless humans in the process. Becoming the planet's dictator, Blanx uses the powerful Blue Flame to set all of Mars ablaze, leaving the civilization in ruins and leading to J'onn returning to find his people on the verge of extinction. When J'onn demands an explanation for Blanx's cruelty, Blanx reveals a mining corporation offered to purchase the planet from Blanx, but he had to be "the last living Martian".

Just a slight correction request, in Marvel Literature and Marvel Cinematic Universe under Complete Monster, it says Obadiah Stane from the Iron Man novelization used a mom and her "three" children against Iron Man, but she actually had four children.

Film S To Z: In the Scream 3 entry, please pothole "he's self-deluding himself and simply enjoys killing people" to Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse.

At JAG, for Ray Beckett, please change "He would also beat his wife regularly make her keep quiet and be compliant to his schemes." to "He would also beat his wife regularly to keep her quiet and cooperative."

Fanfic.Shadowchasers and YMMV. Shadowchasers are both still unlocked. That needs fixing. On that note, are those pages ever going to be unlocked? Or are we just assuming maedar will never go away? Just curious.

#17490: Mar 8th 2018 at 5:12:40 PM

[up] Yes...I meant they should be locked for consistency's sake (as all other pages related to maedar's fics are locked to stop meatpuppetry).

Oh, I see. Read a bit too fast. Yeah, we made it a practice to lock all those pages, so they've been locked now. Thanks.

#17492: Mar 8th 2018 at 5:21:00 PM

[up] No problem. So that was a "yes" to my other question ("Will they be locked forever?") Because if so, why not just cut them if they're that toxic?

Concerning YMMV.The Bible: Under Moral Event Horizon, the current wording seems to imply that characters cross the MEH multiple times (we know that's not how the trope works).

Please therefore change

  • Satan has a lot:
to
  • Satan has multiple possibilities for the moment when he crosses the horizon:

Thanks!

On Monster.Comic Books, fix a capitalization error in Scalped's entry.

"How brass satisfies his 'peculiarities'..."

The 'b' should be capitalized.

Why so serious?

There is a mistake in Hugh and Ulf entry for Monster.A song of ice and fire.

"The soldier who surrender are promptly beheaded", letter S should be added.

Please lock YMMV.Fox News Channel and add it to Permanent Red Link Club (it could fit under "cut and recreated" or "controversial/soapboxes").
