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
.
- The Complete Monster and Magnificent Bastard tropes aren't currently adding or removing examples. Wick changes and other minor corrections to the locked trope pages can be made via this thread, but more significant changes will be declined.
- 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.

~rjd1922, you can move it to WebVideo.Translator Fails on your own. If you'd like a discussion page moved, you can request it here.
Also, if Manga.Ge Ge Ge No Kitaro covers both the Manga and Anime, just make Anime.Ge Ge Ge No Kitaro a redirect.
For Music.Woodstock, sounds like a good case for a disambig.
~DracMonster, archives don't get edited. We've left the redirect of Main.Chekovs Gun up for now pending some mod discussion.
Done to here.

Despite what the page says, I think GeGeGe no Kitarō covers only the anime, since the manga it's based on is titled Hakaba Kitarō, which has its own page. As for Translator Fails, I wanted you to use the mod tool to move it because all the subpages need to be moved as well.
None of the existing or proposed subpages have restrictions that will prevent you from moving it yourself.
This thread is for items that only mods can do. Please use it as such moving forward.
As such, please move the page to Anime and submit the Manga version to the cut list once done.

I probably should have also asked for links to MagnificentBastard.Yu Gi Oh go on MagnificentBastard.Anime And Manga and MagnificentBastard.Video Games, that probably would have helped

- US Politics should probably be edit-locked or least the folders relating to 2016 election and Trump's presidency should edit locked and the some the explanations should be changed to be objective as too many seem to lean to one side.
At Web Original, please change 3 Terrifying Tales
to 3 Terrifying Tales
Requesting a lock on Vic Mignogna. His sexual misconduct allegations have flared up again, and he's been fired from one of his roles because of it.
2025: the year it all ends?The TRS Thread
for Tropes For Dummies decided to rename it to Parodies for Dummies. The crowner's been closed for a while, but the move has to be done by a mod before the thread can go any further.

I got a rock for Halloween.Dammit, I screwed up. The Nyarlathotep Visited My Town entry was supposed to go to Creepypasta (original Creepypastas), not Comic Books: I to Z. Please move it. Sorry about that.
Also, at Fan Works, for RWBY you can get rid of the superfluous header, since it's already a folder.
Everything else looks good.
EDIT: Also (and I got the okay for 43110 on this), at Tabletop Games, for Warhammer 40,000, for Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka, please wrap a Genius Bruiser around "tactical genius even by the standards of other races"
Edited by ACW on Feb 5th 2019 at 9:09:18 AM
At Comic Books: I to Z, for Spawn, for Billy Kincaid, please remove the Fingore pothole and wrap Bad Humor Truck around "ice cream truck".
Please wrap Bad Humor Truck around "ice cream truck" for The Iceman at Film D To J.

Not sure if this is the right place to report this, but several pages are still showing up on the Awesome.New Media index, even though that page now redirects to the Awesome.Web Original index.
Awesome.Critical Role is the page that I noticed this on.
Please remove Counterpart Comparison from YMMV.The Last Jedi, the trope is being cut per https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1545449853052155400&page=3#comment-64
At Fan Works, for Video Games, slight rewrite for the second Undertale entry:
- Underverse: XGaster is the creator of X-Tale. Initially a kind and well-meaning father, he became obsessed with making the perfect world. To this end, he killed his son's friends, as there was "too much happiness", describing their anguish as exciting. Later, he brainwashed his son Frisk into doing a Genocide route, forcing him to try to kill his brother Chara, all as XGaster mocks Chara. He later has the Underfell universe purged for "interrupting his work", and upon being resurrected by Ink is apathetic to the fact his manipulations resulted in the destruction of a good chunk of the Multiverse.
![]()
![]()
That didn't work, but I did fix it. I made the redirect page a proper index again, placed Awesome.Critical Role on it, then blanked the page, and then finally made it a redirect again.
The index isn't showing up on the affected pages anymore.
Would it be possible to direct Isekai to Trapped in Another World? Isekai
is a pretty popular genre utilising this trope in Japanese media, but I'm not sure if it's really a separate trope.
At Creepypasta, for Hyraaq Tobit, please get rid of the superfluous "link".
- Teeki (Muhyo and Roji tree) and Sekai Oni go to Anime And Manga K To Z.
- Leif goes to Film D To J.
- Achebe goes to Marvel Comics (first group).
- Jafar goes to Live Action TVM To Z (Once Upon a Time tree).
- Vassago goes to Sword Art Online.
- Luca goes to Video Games L To Z.

Hello, Minni, here.
Um, I am asking for this page Petscop to be unlocked. It looks like it'd like some tropes
Looks like that was a system error causing the lock icon. I've cleared it.

I'd say to just delete the entry in the list.
