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.

I imagine it goes like this: on VideoGame.Final Fantasy VII
Although I changed the first "One" to "You" for consistency's sake.

Thanks.

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanIn Side Effects Include..., please replace "Havidol. It is important to know that Havidol is" with "Havidol is". (Compare TOW's admonition against this sort of wordiness
.)
On My Immortal, Creator Breakdown needs to be moved to trivia.

Did all the non-archived pages.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Oh. If that is the case, please remove all the Tropers/ on Media Wiki Conversion. I added those before the lock. I'm sorry.
Edit: Okay, NotAWikiWord markup did not prevent that at sign from showing up as "Tropers". I believe I only used the at sign on that page.

I'm not crazy, I just don't give a darn!I don't think they hurt anything.
Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.On Dangerously Short Skirt, One Piece needs to be namespaced to Manga/.

"Learning without thinking is labor lost. Thinking without learning is dangerous."About the archive: I added the namespace changes long after the last comment on the page. As in, I edited an archive. Bad. Shouldn't the Tropers/ stuff be de-added? Or is it really just unimportant/actually pretty helpful?

I'm not crazy, I just don't give a darn!We just prefer that they be left alone. It's not a crime against humanity to edit them.
Edit: I made the change on ![]()
. Looks like someone else got the Let's Play edit.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"... I probably should have waited on my above post, since now that I'm done with it, I see that Sonic Colors also needs to be namespaced on WebOriginal.The Irate Gamer and DethroningMoment.Zero Punctuation.
On WebOriginal.The Irate Gamer, the tropes Chekhov's Gunman, Don't Explain the Joke and The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything need ptitle markup removing.

Keeper of The Celestial Flame

Final Fantasy VII: Dungeon bypass should be added. Never played the game before, butit is mentioned on the trope's page
One can bypass much of the Shinra Building and its guards by simply taking the stairs as opposed to fighting your way floor by floor. This is, however, incredibly boring, time consuming, and you have to put up with your characters complaining the entire way. There are a few bits of nice loot on the stairs, however.
