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.

On There Is No Such Thing as Notability, please edit the Square Peg Round Trope pothole so that the wick is in the Administrivia namespace. Continuing Wick Namespace Migration.

Sickipedia and Tourettes Fucking Cunt Syndrome are making ghost wicks to Tourettes Shit Cock Syndrome, as is the now cutlisted Laconic.Tourettes Shit Cock Syndrome.

Got the SPRT wicks that were on locked pages, or were ghost wicks.

Also, at Western Animation, the Dragonlance duo should go to films, not series.

Add this to Internet Backdraft, between Macekre and No Port For You:

  • No Export for You: A work is not officially released or localized in a certain region, which often leads to backlash.

In Fallout, for the entry for Eulogy Jones. Please change

"assigns an homicidal maniac" and make it "assigns a homicidal maniac"

Vowel fix.

At Western Animation (films) and Dungeons & Dragons, for Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight, a tweak:

  • Takhisis is the Goddess of Darkness and Queen of Dragons, who battled the Gods of Light from the beginning of time. In the first age, Takhisis waged a war across the entire world of Krynn, slaughtering and burning everything in her path, until she was banished by the Gods of Light. In the present, trying to free herself and prevent the return of the Gods of Light, Takhisis leads her followers to conquer the world, land after land, leaving death and destruction behind, while ordering her minions to hunt down the heroes.

EDIT: Also, at Marvel Comics, for Ultimate Universe, for Reed, please remove the A God Am I pothole and make it The Maker.

Looking for a redirect for the Crow's Nest Cartography page. Need it to redirect from "Ubisoft Towers".

Is this the right thread to ask for redirects? I was directed here after making a forum post asking for this.

On Anime & Manga: A to F please add ", by Tensai Okamura" after "Manga" on the Darker Than Black tree and on Anime & Manga: O to Z please add "OVA" after Twilight of the Dark Master.

~Rytex, usually for new redirects we ask for some kind of explanation of what benefit this would have, such as improving search results. What's the justification for this request?

Done to here otherwise.

@nombretomato

CNC was the name the Title Crowner settled on in place of "Ubisoft Towers", which is the name they're known by in the gaming industry given Ubisoft made and codified them. The users felt Crow's Nest Cartography would be a better name for climbing up to a high place to fill in the map.

Please add the following to Film H To L (I know it's already at the Maciste tree, I'll take care of that later):

  • Hercules and the Tyrants of Babylon (1964): Taneal is one of the three tyrants, and the sister of the other two. Plotting to do away with her brothers, Taneal helps run Babylon as a slavery-ridden hellhole where many are mistreated and brutalized, or even killed. When war begins, Taneal decides to have the slave turn a wheel to destroy the foundations of the city while she flees with the army and the treasure, plotting to let every civilian and slave, plus her brothers, die in the collapse of the city.

Requesting that the current notifier for "speculation" be moved to "unreleased speculation" and have the following be put in its place:

"The exit you made on [insert article here] is speculating about the events of the work. We trope events that explicitly happen within the work; theory-crafting or theorizing about Ambiguous Situations has no place on the main wiki and should be saved for Wild Mass Guessing."

I'd like to have Found Family as a redirect for Family of Choice. It's a common enough fandom term that it warrants inclusion.
