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.

Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch has Don't Like? Don't Read! linked using ptitle markup.
Keeper of The Celestial FlameSince the various dinnerware troper faction pages have all been redirected to TABLE, the bolded second line on that page probably should be deleted.
Also, since the cutlery pages themselves are now just redirects, do they still need to be wicked? I'd have asked in the thread where the change was discussed, where it's more appropriate than in here, but it was locked after the change was made.

All your safe space are belong to Trump
[edit] Ooo, I figured it out. They're been redirected to a redirect. Isn't that a bad idea? Shouldn't they point directly to The Archive of Bellicose Lexicon Entities?

Calling someone a pedant is an automatic Insult Backfire. Real pedants will be flattered.I have to go back and fix all of that crap. Now that I'm at home and not travelling, I'll take care of it soon.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"TABLE is updated. Fixing all the redirects will take a bit longer.

I have just received word
that this thread is the one that handles cut redirects, not the locked/cut page thread.
Please redirect Main.We to Literature.We. (It has 11 inbounds.) Thank you.
I'm not crazy, I just don't give a darn!Zero Chops was renamed to Wimp Fight, and this needs to be reflected on Webcomic.Asperchu.
on Webcomic.Ctrl Alt Del Complaining About Rescues They Don't Like needs the ptitle markup removing.

Keeper of The Celestial FlameI just noticed this- on the main Evil Overlord List, the wick for Game-Breaker in entry #40 either needs to be removed or have an invoked tag added.

"Jack, you have debauched my sloth."
I added the [[invoked]] tag...wasn't sure if that pothole should be changed to Weapon of Mass Destruction or some other superweapon trope instead of Game-Breaker.
Given that the Evil Overlord List is meant to be hypothetical, that works. Thank you!
"Jack, you have debauched my sloth."The Shadow Line (Main namespace) is locked and empty; the actual entry is at The Shadow Line (Series namespace). Shouldn't the former redirect to the latter rather than being blank?
It's not necessary unless it has inbounds.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"On Double Standard, The Red Sonja needs to be changed to Best Her to Bed Her.
"If you aren't him, then you apparently got your brain from the same discount retailer, so..." - FighteerConservapedia now moved to the Wiki/ namespace. Redirect there then lock the new page, s'il vous plait?

I now go by Graf von Tirol.On WebOriginal.The Irate Gamer, please:
- Put an [invoked] tag on It's Hard, So It Sucks!, and remove the "in-universe" pothole from "He has a very low tolerance for…" since it's making "very" appear as if it's in quotes.
- Also under the It's Hard, So It Sucks! listing, there are stray brackets after "Contra Super C" that need removal.
- Move Ascended Meme from YMMV to the main page, since that trope is not YMMV.
- Move "Seinfeld" Is Unfunny from YMMV to the main page with an [invoked] tag, since this is an in-work example.

There are a lot of ptitle potholes, too.
