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.

Rewrite for Web Original (Heaven Cycle):
- The brutal Uriel, the lord of Heaven, is a violent, egotistical archangel who runs Heaven as a nightmarish dystopia. Any angel who puts a thought out of line or incurs his displeasure is used for fuel in Heaven, with Uriel slaughtering countless angels in a fit of pique whenever he is displeased, as well as being the one backing the Children of Heaven and their evil activities. After cravenly fleeing when Naberius is loosed upon Solomon, allowing trillions of Heaven's residents to die, Uriel returns to kick-start the war against Hell and sends his forces to massacre everything on Earth, along with every demon. Uriel begins killing countless humans himself, proclaiming that he alone is the will of Heaven and he intends to kill every human, demon and even angels who hesitate, murdering his loyal Co-Dragons Saraquel and Raguel just for delaying in a response to him. Intending to construct a new "utopia" of endless torture for all he deems below him as he builds a new order above it, Uriel proceeds to attempt to annihilate half of the universe, showcasing that an angel can be far worse than most demons.
Also, please change Azazel's second sentence to this:
Introducing himself to Tango and Mint by subjecting an innocent couple to a horrible death, Azazel steadily unveils his machinations: Having sacrificed billions to the twisted, murderous pleasures of his brother Naberius, Azazel manipulates Tango so he may place Naberius in the Heaven-controlled city of Solomon, extinguishing trillions of lives, angel soldier and civilian alike.
At Film A To C, please change the first sentence of the appropriate entry to this:
- The Blind Menace (1960): The blind Suginoichi is a would-be Corrupt Politician.

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsI just launched the new trope EX Special Attack and would like EX Special Move to be a redirect.
I don't see a need. Reasoning?
Done to here otherwise.
Special attacks are sometimes called "special moves", so having a redirect would make the wicks still work in case someone uses "move" instead of "attack".
Please remove the Kamen Rider example from Anime And Manga K To Z and add Kamen Rider to Anime & Manga for works with their own pages.
At the same page (AniManga K-Z), for MAR, please cut the sadist pothole.
At Kamen Rider itself, please change "Literature-Exclusive" to just Literature, and remove the manga example from "Other Examples".
Before "Other Examples", please add this:
Manga
- Kamen Rider BLACK manga, by Shotaro Ishinomori: Kohtaro Minami/Kamen Rider Black himself is the Demon King in the Bad Future of 2018. Achieving the position of Gorgom's majesty by killing his rival stepbrother, Kohtaro started a war by launching nuclear bombs towards every continent, eradicating human civilization and forcing the few survivors to live in tribes. Kohtaro routinely orders his troops to attack any colony that they come across and kill everyone inside, allowing them to dismember corpses and slaughter babies. Recognizing his younger-self and desperately trying to preserve his own existence, Kohtaro argues to have done nothing wrong as he was "simply the ruler of this world". Proudly calling himself a "truly all-powerful Demon King", Kohtaro reveals that he has drained the energy of the planet just so he could "take this world to hell with me" in the event of an assassination.
- Kamen Rider Kuuga manga: Akira Harada is a psychotic Serial Killer who, upon witnessing the first player of the Gegeru, Zu-Gumun-Ba, the Spider Gurongi, massacring humans on a railway, decided to worship Gumun as his goddess. A registered sex offender, Harada had tried killing himself for his goddess, and when he failed, Harada came up with the idea of "sharing his dream" with other people. Prior to having his identity revealed via DNA analysis, Harada had already murdered four women; by opening their chests, filling them with gunpowder, and burning them alive so they could become "human fireworks". When encountered by the detective investigating his murders, Kaoru Ichijo, Harada had killed another woman, and laughed at her death. Transported to an ambulance after attempting suicide, Harada slits the driver's throat and brags about being able to resume his serial killings. Harada is found by Gumun on the parking lot, and when he sees the remains of the creature's victims, he feels joy, seeing this as his goddess's work. A childish maniac with an obsession for fireworks, Harada was proof that the Gurongi are not the only beasts roaming Tokyo.

CM Dates; CM Pending; CM Drafts~Someoneman: I don't find it likely that someone will search for "EX Special Move" and not find "EX Special Attack" in the process.
Complete Monster stuff is done.
Edited by nombretomado on Nov 11th 2018 at 9:54:04 AM
Using this please:
- Put one on MagnificentBastard.Live Action TV;
- Two on MagnificentBastard.Literature;
- Three-six on MagnificentBastard.Video Games, replacing the only Tales entry with the new tree;
- Seven-nine on MagnificentBastard.Western Animation;
- Ten and eleven on MagnificentBastard.Other, in their according sections
I've already built the quotes page.
Cheers!
MB is m'done.

Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576Late comer but can we add this one in as well please to MagnificentBastard.Video Games:
- Yu-Gi-Oh! Forbidden Memories: Priest Seto, the Egyptian version of Seto Kaiba, started out as a minion of the seeming Big Bad, Heishin and subdues Prince Atem for his boss to murder both the Pharaoh and his wife. Giving the Millennium Items to Heishin's minions, Seto makes them all the more powerful when they face the vengeful prince. Usurping Heishin, Seto allows his greedy employer to be destroyed by DarkNite, before engaging the newly crowned Pharaoh Atem. Even after his defeat, Seto manages to strike a deal and pulls a Heel–Face Turn, never losing his charm despite his dastardly acts.
Aha, indeed. Sorry, adding that slipped my mind, I edited it in but I see you already caught that
Edited by 43110 on Nov 11th 2018 at 7:58:27 AM
Done to here.
I assumed that was supposed to be on MagnificentBastard.Video Games.
Before I start: Some of us at the CM thread were wondering: Is there a way to give me access to edit just the CM pages?
Please move the Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. entry from Live Action TVM To Z, and add this slight tweak to Live Action TVM To Z:
- Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. (1998): Arnim Zola is a sinister Mad Scientist who once developed a horrible bioweapon called the Death's Head virus, almost employing its use in World War II to kill all of Hitler's enemies and win the war for the Nazis before HYDRA was collapsed. An aging but remorseless old man thirty years later, Zola gleefully takes the opportunity to remake the virus for the schemes of HYDRA's current head Viper, allowing her to use it to gas HYDRA's command and attempt to gas all of Manhattan to cause millions of deaths in the process. When Zola's mind is read, the only thing that is seen is a passionate, frightening devotion to warfare, destruction, and the death of millions—a dream Zola eagerly hopes to realize through the Death's Head virus.
Now, at both Sonic the Hedgehog and Fan Works (Comic Books), for Zachary, please remove The Sociopath pothole.
At Law & Order, for Tommy Onerato (last section), please move the Manipulative Bastard pothole from where it is to around his name (and also de-italicize the part that's italicized).

- Next 2 rewrites go to Anime And Manga K To Z.

Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576Say, I was looking over the Final Fantasy VII page and knew that it had been edit locked because of the whole big shipping issue, and when I clicked to edit to go to the edit lock page it opened up the page edit instead. I don't believe I had been granted super editor or mod controls so...sup?
Currently reading up My Rule Fu Is Stronger than YoursIt's just a glitch, none of your edits will actually be saved.
~ACW, where does the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons example go in Monster.Dungeons And Dragons?
Done to here otherwise.
Edited by nombretomado on Nov 12th 2018 at 4:56:05 AM
Dungeons & Dragons has some mistakes in the edits. Ptolus, Ravenloft, and Tomb of Horrors got shifted down to the comic books section for some reason, whereas they should still be alphabetical in the tabletop section beneath Planescape. The entry for Imgig Zu should be the sole entry for the new comic books section. I can see how ACW's wording was confusing.
Edited by LoreDeluxe on Nov 12th 2018 at 5:13:31 AM
Think you're tough because you made it through Lord of the Rings? Real men survive The Silmarillion.Please create Main.The Brain, to disambiguate between the 1969 film, the 1988 film, and the pinball machine.
Yeah, I was making my best guess on CM D&D. A sandbox would probably be the best fix, if someone could oblige.
We actually have the up-to-date full version right here: DD Reformat. Just edit the current page to look like that, in particular with Ptolus, Ravenloft, Tomb of Horrors under the Tabletop subsection and Imgig Zu as the sole entry under comic books.
Think you're tough because you made it through Lord of the Rings? Real men survive The Silmarillion.Yeah, it looks perfect now. Thanks for working through all trouble.
Think you're tough because you made it through Lord of the Rings? Real men survive The Silmarillion.Everything looks good, except to keep it consistent, at Pokémon, please make it Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsPlease create the following disambiguation page on The Brain (and place it in the Ambiguity Index). I'll take care of correcting the wicks. Thanks in advance.
The Brain can refer to the following works:
- The Brain, a 1969 French comedy movie.
- The Brain, a 1988 Canadian horror film.
- The Brain, a pinball, modified version of The Simpsons Pinball Party.
If a direct link led you to this page, please correct it so that it points to the proper wick above.
At A Song of Ice and Fire, please get rid of the stray spoiler tags for Show!Joffrey and Telltale!Ramsay.
De-potholed entries for Shin Megami Tensei.
De-potholed entries for the film section of James Bond.
At Live Action TVM To Z, for True Blood, please change the first pothole for her name to Lilith.
