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.

The article for Red Dead Redemption - Van der Linde Gang has been locked for ten days now. I really want someone to get it unlocked so that I can edit it again.

Please remove the Mossflower quote from Lit at Complete Monster, since it's now the page quote for Redwall.

~gjjones, that seems like something best-suited for a Sandbox. Please come back here when the sandbox with those issues addressed is ready to be swapped in.

I'm requesting that the Unfortunate Implications entry on YMMV.Heroes In Crisis be cut. While it does include citations, both of which are from Tumblr blogs; which are explicitly stated to be poor citations on the UI page itself. Also, one of the citations now leads to a now-deleted blog.

  • 13 for Fire Emblem under all the other entries and please put it under a double exclamation mark title like the others have (in this case Fire Emblem: Three Houses)

For Complete Monster (Literature):

"Fenrir Greyback is, perhaps, the most savage werewolf alive today. He considers it as his mission to bite and to contaminate as many people as possible; he wants to create enough werewolves to overcome the wizards. Voldemort has promised him prey in return for his services. Greyback specializes in children... Bite them young, he says, and raise them away from their parents, raise them to hate normal wizards. Voldemort has threatened to unleash him upon people's sons and daughters; it is a threat that usually produces good results."
Remus Lupin, describing Fenrir Greyback, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

"He's evil to the bone. His primary power is to make people feel a mad need to sacrifice whoever they love. Only now, that need will be contagious—'the lust to slaughter in Cruach's name'—passing from person to person."
Lucia The Huntress on Crom Cruach, Pleasure of a Dark Prince

Thanks cool
