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.

Basically, the ban evader got banned. Then hopeshalllive thought they were talking about Myotismon being cut, and removed it. Lightysnake saw the error as it was pointed out in the CM Cleanup Thread, then put Myotismon back. All just some miscommunication.

Anyway, I don't know if a lock is needed. It's been a while since the last edit that put Machinedramon back(before Witch got nuked again). And ti's very easy to catch.

...It's weird having so many websites and no way to properly display now, lol.

Could WesternAnimation.Jetsons The Movie be reverted back to my own edit from the beginning of this month, please? A very, very stupid person who shall remain nameless put the spoiler and indentation policy violations back on the page, and while some of the nameless VVSP's edits were reverted, not all of them were.

Thanks in advance.

I've unlocked that page so that your edit can be reinstated, as I can't find it in the revert tool.

I agree that the other page discussed here does not need locking.

Edit revert done, page can be re-locked. Thanks Septimus!

They've hit it again. Why am I not surprised?

At least this time it's more obvious which edit to revert.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I should like to formally request that the edit from earlier today to WesternAnimation.Jetsons The Movie by a very, very stupid person who shall remain nameless (AVVSPWSRN for short - looks like one of his usernames anyway) be reverted and the page re-locked.

Just requesting an edit to the Bara Genre page, as I finally created a Gengoroh Tagame creator page and wanted to put a pot hole on his name displayed there.

  • 17935: Since it's an invalid page (starting with a number), that one would take dev help.

DTH otherwise.

Would it be possible to lock the Magnificent Bastard main pages? I started a cleanup thread and it would be very helpful to keep the main pages from being toyed with as we decided who is a cut, keep and whose entries need to be altered. Like ACW does with CM, I figured I'd start my own drafts page and send weekly requests. Thanks!

Regarding the Web Original, add these Wick Namespace Migration

HomestarRunner - WebAnimation/

Pyrocynical - WebVideo/

SuperMarioLogan - WebVideo/

The Slender Man Mythos - Franchise/

Sorry for being unclear before.

Mishearing to Mondegreen, as it seems to be about any mishearing, not just Misheard Lyrics, one of its redirects.

Also, at Fan Works, for The Makings of Team CRME, Cinder should go at the end.
