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.

Messed this up on the original request but can we cut the Teen Titans Go! To the Movies entry from MagnificentBastard.Western Animation and instead put this rewrite under the animated section on MagnificentBastard.Film?:

  • Teen Titans Go! To the Movies: Though sillier than usual, Slade proves a competent adversary to the Teen Titans. Disguising himself as a film director, Slade plays on superheroes' ego and films a fake movie of them while he moves undetected to steal pieces to a Doomsday Device, even having the unwitting heroes help him build it. Constantly improvising his strategy to deal with the Titans, Slade plays off Robin's desire for his own movie and other underhanded tactics to break the team apart. Tricking Robin into letting him into the Titans' vault, Slade uses his device to mind control the entire world. Coming within a hair's breadth of victory, Slade even remains a Graceful Loser as he is beaten, proclaiming the Titans' song to be "monumentally dope".

Cheers!

Can someone edit FiveManBand.Western Animation A To M to correct some examples that have more than five characters? For example, All Grown Up!, Adventures of the Gummi Bears, Angelina Ballerina, Bionic Six, Captain Planet and the Planeteers, Chuck Norris Karate Kommandos, and Dennis The Menace US.

On MagnificentBastard.Western Animation, please cut the Robin pothole from Jason Todd's name on Batman: Under the Red Hood and instead link the first reference of "Red Hood" to the character page.

So Sangue Serenissima is seemingly locked. I tried the going into edit history and click on edit trick but it didn't work.

Looks like a fake lock. I got rid of it. Note that the new code pushed last week means you can't do the "go to edit page from history" workaround like you could before.

Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally think YMMV.Ghostbusters 3 should probably get a preemptive lock and possibly a cut. The one example (Author's Saving Throw) doesn't look so bad... yet.

At Monster.Film A To C, please put a wraparound link to Film.Department Q The Keeper Of Lost Causes in the title of the The Absent One writeup, as it is that film's sequel, and change the first two sentences to "In the Department Q Danish crime thriller series, most villains have truly horrible backstories and severe tragedy to their characters. The same cannot be said for the second film's villains, Ditlev Pram and Ulrik Dybbøl." It clarifies that the film is no longer a trilogy, and fixes a couple grammar mistakes.

Not sure how but the requested entry for Teen Titans Go! To the Movies isn't the one I posted above. Mind changing to the one I posted there?

On ThatOneBoss.Pokemon, I was wondering if I could make some additions to some of the Sun and Moon entries to explain how some of the boss fights were updated for Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. The boss fights are generally considered to be harder than the originals, which make the already difficult fights even worse.

I'm planning on transplanting the entries for Totem Lurantis and Mimikyu from the game's YMMV page to be new sub-bullets on the That One Boss page. Their current entries focus entirely on their fights from Sun and Moon. Here's my proposed changes:

  • Totem Pokémon Mimikyu, of all things. Its Disguise ability (basically a free Substitute—sans the HP loss—as soon as it's sent out) guarantees that it'll survive to call in an ally Pokémon, and every ally it calls has Hypnosis, so if you don't OHKO it immediately, it will put you to sleep. Its Totem Aura boosts all of its stats, so have fun trying to outspeed and overpower it. Thanks to these boosts, odds are it will survive to call another ally if you KO the first ally first. Thought you were going to be clever by bringing a Dark-type? Mimikyu has Play Rough to make short work of it.
    • In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Totem Mimikyu received upgrades similar to the other unchanged Totem Pokémon. The rather useless Astonish has been replaced by Leech Life, giving it a powerful new coverage move and healing option. Its allies are now Banette and Jellicent. The former has Screech to turn its targets' Defense into butter, Will-O-Wisp to cripple physical attackers, and Curse, which it gleefully abuses to steadily whittle down your Pokémon's HP. Jellicent, on the other hand, has heavy damage output with Water Pulse and the guaranteed damage of Night Shade.
  • Totem Lurantis can also be a complete pain. Its moveset includes hard hitting attacks like Solar Blade, which it can charge up in one turn because it holds a Power Herb, and X-Scissor. It also knows Synthesis, so it gains half of its HP back whenever it wants to. It will even call forth a Trumbeak that loves spamming Supersonic and Pluck. Thought that bringing a Bug type would be helpful against it? You're dead wrong. But the worst part if it calls a Castform. The Castform it calls know Headbutt, which is surprisingly powerful at that point in the game and can let it flinch you, Weather Ball, and Sunny Day. This means two things; First, it can take out most Bug types one might bring to beat it in one shot (Plus, if you chose Rowlet it can likely one shot that too). Secondly, it lets the Totem Lurantis heal 75% of its HP and use Solar Blade without wasting a turn or Power Herb. And just to add insult to injury, Totem Lurantis can also use Synthesis more times than is possible for the player tonote .
    • In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Totem Lurantis replaced Razor Leaf with Low Sweep (a move that always lowers the Speed of those hit) to ensure your Pokémon won't outrun it. Its allies this time are Comfey and Kecleon, who both know Sunny Day (giving Lurantis a stronger heal from Synthesis, makes Solar Blade a one-turn move instead of two, and activates its Leaf Guard ability which makes it immune to Status effects) and are just dying to use it on you. Kecleon's Ancient Power will give most Pokémon with a type advantage over Lurantis a run for their money, and confuse others with Dizzy Punch. Comfey on the other hand, will support Lurantis by raising its Defense with Flower Shield, and restoring its HP through Floral Healing, effectively giving Lurantis two healing methods. But the big kicker is Comfey's ability: Flower Veil, which not only protects Lurantis from Status moves, but also prevents it from having any of its stats lowered!

If there are any concerns, please let me know.
