I do have one legit edit request for Sword and Shield's main (Video game) page.
- Wham Shot: Obstagoon's appearance in the August 7th 2019 trailer. In addition to signaling the return of cross-generational evolutions, it is also the first time the regional form for a past Pokemon can evolve into a completely new one.
Under the YMMV page for Pokémon Sword and Shield:
- Unfortunate Character Design: Galarian Weezing's design is meant to invoke Industrial Revolution-era factories and the pollution that they caused, as well as the business tycoons that profited off of them. However, the shape of the smoke pipes in conjunction with Weezing's rounded design makes it resemble a pair of bongs, not helped by the green smoke that surrounds it.

Discredited Meme is limited to In-Universe or creator-cited examples only.
Please change The Hunt to The Hunt (2012) on False Rape Accusation and Paedo Hunt.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Could you please change Rick and Morty to Rick and Morty on Comic Books: I to Z
I'm actually in favor of that practice for all examples, since we have the pages for these characters and it limits sinkholing. I'm just saying that text like [[Characters/TheAliceAndBobShowAliceAdams Alice]] in example text is less sinkholey than [[TheChick Alice]].

- Chrysis is a priestess of Hera who forbade medical treatment in Argolis, believing it to be sacrilege. She has also kidnapped the Eagle Bearer's younger sibling and turned him and numerous others into human weapons for the Cult of Kosmos by torturing them when they were infants. Chrysis would have a fellow priest's tongue ripped out and ordered a landlord to kill her own son, Dolops, when they witness Chrysis kidnapping the children. When confronted by the Eagle Bearer, Chrysis has the house with a baby inside burned, forcing the Eagle Bearer to choose between saving the baby and chasing Chrysis; should the Eagle Bearer chose the former, Chrysis would later ambush the Eagle Bearer, killing an innocent man along the way.
- Legacy of the First Blade DLC: Pactyas the Huntsman leads the Order of Hunters to pursue Darius, killing his wife and children, with only one surviving. Tracking Darius and his remaining child in Makedonia, Pactyas would massacre numerous villages there, including ordering one's water supply poisoned, and would brainwash wolves to attack people in his efforts to lure Darius out of hiding and kill those Pactyas deems "tainted". Learning about the Eagle Bearer's whereabouts in Makedonia, Pactyas would gather all the victims he mutilated and killed, displaying the corpses hanging from a tree to trick the innocent villagers into attacking the Eagle Bearer; should the Eagle Bearer refuse to kill said villagers, Pactyas would kill them himself. Battling the Eagle Bearer, Pactyas would use psychological torment to break them before attempting to kill them.

- The Lion King (2019): Scar is a wrathful and bitter lion driven by an insatiable desire for power.

When this fails, Scar allies with the hyenas and orchestrates a wildebeest stampede, killing Mufasa and blaming Simba for the tragedy, exiling him before sending the hyenas to finish him off. Taking over as king, Scar reduces the Pridelands to a barren wasteland by killing everything with no restrictions in addition to starving the lionesses when Sarabi, Mufasa's widow, refuses to become his mate. When Simba returns, Scar attempts to kill him personally, stopping only to tauntingly reveal his role in Mufasa's death. When his crimes are exposed, Scar orders the hyenas to kill everyone in sight, and when Simba has him at his mercy, attempts to blame them for his crimes.
Please remove Cabiria from Film A To C; Goliath and the Vampires from Film D To G; andSon of Samson from Film S To Z.
Please add the following to Film M To R:
- Maciste (by release date):
- Cabiria: Karthalo is one of the earliest examples of a film CM, and still one of the vilest. The High Priest of the devilish, three-eyed Moloch, Karthalo engineers the mass sacrifice of hundreds of children at a time to be stripped naked and dumped one-by-one into a furnace to be burned alive as tribute to Moloch. Karthalo coldly tortures and murders any opposition to the sacrifice, having Croessa, the nanny of the young Cabiria, painfully flogged and later ripped apart by his followers, and later brutally torturing the good-hearted servant Maciste before chaining him to a millstone and condemning him to grueling labor at the millstone's side for the rest of his life. In his lowest moment, Karthalo attempts to rape Cabiria, the same girl he had attempted to sacrifice over ten years ago, out of nothing more than a fit of cruel lust. A zealot, a slaver, a torturer, and a madman with countless atrocities on his hands, Karthalo's evil shines just as wickedly today as it did over a century ago.

When Babylon finally falls, Morakeb even murders his own king before trying to escape.
- Son of Samson (1960): The evil queen Smedes of Egypt, and her royal vizier partner, are a pair of Persian sympathizers looking to maintain control over Egypt.

Smedes also has women taken to be sold into slavery, targeting Kenamon's beloved Nofret, intending on control of Egypt without caring how many she has to slaughter.
- Goliath and the Vampires (1961): Kobrak is the vampiric master of the kingdom of Salmanak, ruling through its Sultan. Seeking world domination, Kobrak has entire villages burned to the ground, with survivors taken to be made into his robotic slave army, while women are forced into harems. After the Sultan defies him by allowing Goliath and his love Guja to escape, Kobrak murders him and later has Goliath and Guja captured himself, attempting to destroy Goliath's brain through sound waves to make him his mindless slave. When Goliath escapes, Kobrak assumes his form and infiltrates the cave of the rebel Blue Men to attempt to kill them all, fatally impaling his former slave Astra when she warns them.

He overthrows Princess Amoa's father and tortures him, trying to force Amoa to marry him to obtain access to the throne, before he allows the Headhunters access to her tribe, having a man decapitated to prove a point to the others, willing to have hundreds more killed for the sake of power.
- Hercules and the Tyrants of Babylon (1964): Taneal is one of the three tyrants, and the sister of the other two.

Fan Works
For Western Animation, please remove The Writer, Ursula, and The Games of Moriarty, and add this after the Avatar Universe stuff:
- The Games of Moriarty
: Moriarty is Franz Hopper's former colleague and Anthea's ex-boyfriend. A sadistic individual who loves to play with people's minds, Moriarty starts by forcing the Lyoko Warriors to "play" his mind games, in which the latter are forced to make sadistic choices, which often involves killing people close to them. A mind rapist, he is responsible for Jeremie's Start of Darkness, as well Odd's brainwashing and consequent PTSD; all the while using a "treatment" so horrifying even Odd is absolutely terrified by it. After appearing on Earth, he eventually starts a fascist movement called the Order; frames the French Muslim population for his later attacks; leaves brainwashed gunmen to die in a fire after they served their purpose; and doesn't hesitate to let Order members get caught in the crossfire caused by his attacks. He also hacks the Return to the Past protocol in order to prevent the heroes from repairing any damage done by his attacks, and his attacks often involves mass murder, such as brainwashing an Arab in order to blow up a bus, or spreading a deadly flu in the entire city. A mass-murdering psychopath and, despite being human, lacking even more in humanity than XANA, not even politeness and charisma hides Moriarty's desires to humiliate, torture and destroy enemy, ally and innocent alike.
- Overpowered
: XANA is just as vile as canon. Surviving the events of Season 4 alongside Franz Hopper, XANA kept the latter hostage, torturing him and slowly draining him of his energy. Meanwhile, XANA makes several attempts on the Lyoko Warriors' lives, not caring if others students are caught in the crossfire. XANA also attempts to brainwash Naxxya, Yumi and Sissi. In the Bad Future, XANA manages to kill all the Lyoko Warriors and wipe out everything on the surface of the planet. When a group of survivors attempts to find a way to go back in time to warn the Lyoko Warriors, XANA kills all of them but one. In the final battle, XANA sadistically killed all of the Lyoko Warriors but Sissi and Jérémie, forcing the latter to watch as it kills his Love Interest Aélita. When the resurrected, empowered Lyoko Warriors manage to defeat XANA, it destroys its base in an act of spite, hoping to take the Lyoko Warriors and Franz Hopper with it.
- Fanscription: In "What if Scar Raised Simba in 'The Lion King'?"
, Scar is as monstrous as his animated counterpart. Kidnapping Simba after staging a wildebeest stampede, Scar brands Simba's right eye and brainwashes him into believing he was his father. He was also apathetic to the hyenas' overhunting, leading to the devastation of the Pride Lands. Subjecting the young cub to years of systematic abuse and starvation, Scar and Simba invade the Pride Lands with Scar halting his victory to gleefully rub Simba's transformation in Mufasa's face before killing him. Scar then captures the crown prince Kion, and plans to execute him the next morning, falsely promising to spare him if he affirmed his rule to the pride. When Simba betrays him, Scar tries to kill him without an iota of remorse.
- The Lion King fanfiction The Lion King Adventures: The Writer is responsible for all the bad things that happen in the story, and is the true villain of the series. The Writer created the world Simba and his friends lived in, and had caused every evil act in that world. The Writer also created all the other villains in the story. The Writer's creations included Scar, as well as evil versions of Timon and Pumbaa who drain the souls of cubs. He had always been trying to kill Simba and his friends or ruin their lives for fun, and at the end of the series, he goes into the world himself to kill Simba and his friends so he can take over and rule the world for eternity as he destroys thousands of lives for his own amusement.
- The Little Mermaid fanfic Under the Bright Blue Endless Sky
: Ursula the Sea Witch manages to surpass her canon incarnation in sheer wickedness. The envious younger half-sister of King Triton, Ursula was banished from Atlantica after her use of dark magic caused untold havoc throughout the kingdom. Spending years attempting to inflict as much harm upon Atlantica as possible, in addition to roping unhappy merfolk into making bargains with her, many of which end with them being transformed into polyps, Ursula tricks Triton's daughter Ariel into making a deal with her in order to become human and reunite with her lover Prince Eric on land. Determined to ensure Ariel doesn't fulfill her end of the bargain, Ursula reveals Ariel's mermaid heritage to a band of unscrupulous pirates and sends them on a mad hunt for her, leaving torched villages and piles of dead bodies in their wake. Upon succeeding in acquiring the trident from her brother, Ursula immediately attempts to brutally kill her niece and her lover.
Here's a rewrite for the MLP folder, and a writeup for the AniManga folder (other):
- The Night the Magic Died: Gralo, aka Garret, is an evil Krassau who desires to absorb all magic to increase his power, leaving lifelessness in his wake, justifying himself with the belief that his species is superior to all other beings. Having already caused widespread death and destruction, Gralo fled to Equestria to escape punishment and possessed Garret while leaving him conscious, reducing him to an Empty Shell when Gralo had no more use for him. He tries to drain all things magical—-including emotions and liveliness—-from Equestria's population, threatening to obliterate all life in the universe. Gralo also gives breaking lectures to the Princesses and threatens to suck Cadance dry to make them suffer. Gralo was a vile enough being that his kind considers him being banished to the Void Between the Worlds the only fitting punishment, and in his final moments of freedom, he spitefully attempts to turn the Princesses against Nahmat.
- Yu-Gi-Oh! fanfic Tilting the Balance
: In the past, Jacob Waterknot sold his soul 31 times for power. In the present day, Jacob duels with Gerald and uses attacks that severely injure him, including inflicting a third-degree burn. Eventually, Waterknot uses the attack "Deepest Impact", destroying large parts of the city and killing thousands of people.
At the video games section, please change the namespace for Legend of Zelda to Franchise/; please then add this before the Kirby stuff:
- Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg: William Dudley Pelley is the leader of the far-right Silver Legion faction within Huey Long's America First Party. During the Second American Civil War, Pelley allies with Huey Long as a part of his right-wing American Union State, fighting against the left-wing Combined Syndicates of America and the Federal Government. If the AUS wins the civil war, Pelley will launch a coup if Huey Long rejects measures to enforce Prohibition. If victorious, Pelley purges everyone in the AUS government that's not in his faction and executes Huey Long, turning America into a white supremacist Christian fundamentalist nation. Once in power, Pelley enacts policies such as enforcing Jim Crow laws across all of America, absorbing the Ku Klux Klan into the government and forming a Klan-led Secret Police, and sends dissidents to forced labor camps. Pelley also proposes acts to restrict African-American freedom of movement, cuts African-American education to only focus on labor education, and expands African-American criminalization and penal labor to bring back slavery. Pelley also fosters rabid anti-vaccination conspiracy theories, leading to the biggest polio outbreak in American history.
- Red World: Theresa Brasier is the leader of the far-right Phoenix Front party in Britain. If the British Conservatives decide to work with the far-right, Brasier takes advantage of this political opening to launch a false-flag bombing of Parliament with the goal of discrediting the Conservatives as weak on national security; said bombing forces a snap election totally dominated by far-right parties. If victorious, Brasier abolishes the position of Prime Minister through the National Salvation Act and establishes the position of High Secretary. As High Secretary, Brasier launches a violent crackdown on leftists and Scottish secessionists opposing her rule; enforces Protestant fundamentalism; establishes concentration camps for non-Christians, Socialists, Jews and Muslims; and establishes a total surveillance state to spy on any political opponents using agencies such as "The Eye" and "The Finger". She also launches a war with Ireland over control of Northern Ireland and drags Britain into war with the Soviet bloc under the pretense that Normandy was once controlled by the British.
Please replace the appropriate entry at Call of Duty and Comic Books: I to Z with this:
- Modern Warfare 2: Ghost: In this comic book prequel miniseries, Manuel "El Gordo" Roba is the leader of the Zaragoza Drug Cartel. A target of the United States due to his drug smuggling and Human Trafficking activities, SAS operator Simon Riley was sent alongside a US squad to kill him. The entire squad was betrayed by their leader Vernon to Roba, who subjcted them to brutal brainwashing, torturing them under drug-induced insomnia, and forcing them to fight each other to break their minds, once hanging Riley from a tree with hooks because he displayed resistance. Months later, Roba kills Vernon, one of his former brainwashed victims, and buries Riley alive with his corpse. After Riley escapes, Roba sent his successfully brainwashed soldiers to the UK to take care of him, murdering his family, his shrink and his superior officer before pinning all the murders on Riley to completely ruin his life.
At SCP Foundation, for the first entry, please make it SCP-682
Also, please replace the current quote with this:
Please add this entry after the first one:
- The Ambassador of Alagadda is a representative of the Court of Alagadda who, unlike its indifferent master, sees human suffering as fun. As the second-in-command of the realm, behind only the Hanged King himself, the Ambassador manipulated famed poet Christopher Marlowe into writing a self-evolving memetic virus in the form of SCP-701
, a play that when performed has the chance to Mind Rape participants and audience alike into a homicidal frenzy, leading to tens of thousands of deaths in massacres, human sacrifices and mass suicides for the last three hundred years until the last uncontained event occurred at a high school, with some survivors left permanently psychotic or comatose. When the Foundation sent a MTF squad to investigate the realm of Alagadda through SCP-2264
, the Ambassador used its psychic powers to force the agents into torturing themselves for its amusement, returning only one survivor as a warning to the Foundation, but not before taking his "broken body" to see the face of the Hanged King, causing him to repeatedly attempt suicide even after the Foundation had to amputate his limbs.
