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. 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.
  9. 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.

Enlightened Mystic Race goes to Space Elves, but there's no mention of Space in the redirect... Although EMR is said in the trope's description, but that's a pothole to Proud Scholar Race Guy.

Change it to PSRG? Or something else, like Our Elves Are Better?

Our Elves Are Better itself, which is currently under TRS, has this to say:

Note that Elves In Space is another redirect to Space Elves.

Quotes.Magnificent Bastard is currently disorganized, so I put this together. Please replace the quotes on the page with the following:

    open/close all folders 

     Anime and Manga 
"So long as there are children who can smile innocently as they happily eat sweets, I have a positive opinion of this world. To that end, I have deceived, betrayed, and spilled blood. And I'll likely continue to do so. If that isn't enough, I'll resort to higher reason. "
Cardinal Moldeen Ogus Gyunei, Dances with the Dragons

     Comic Books 
"What freak of nature produced this creature... put such mass and strength at the disposal of a criminal genius? His presence seems to charge the air around him, commanding attention — and obedience. It's almost hypnotic..."
Matt Murdock on The Kingpin, Daredevil

"If I am ever defeated or dishonored— If I ever act in ways unworthy of myself... If I ever die... The word goes out: 'It must have been a Doombot'...Doom cannot fit in such small containers. I am not my body. Not my mind. I am... I am the old trunk, filled with ancient mysteries. I am the explosion in the college laboratory. I am the mask that burns with the fires of vengeance. I am the legend that unites this nation. I am the story of Doom."

     Fan Works 
"Justin, The Eye Candy. Justin was underestimated early on due to his dainty stature, but quickly proved his team wrong and showed that he could hold his own. Determined to secure his own safety, Justin was not afraid to play dirty. After quite a few early-game schemes, Justin settled down a bit when the stakes were raised when the teams dissolved, as surely him being exposed would've meant a literal death sentence. He formed a friendship with long-term ally Trent but other than that kept his distance from his peers. He flew through different allies after Trent's death and slid his way to the finale. His dastardly deeds went noticed by all his fellow competitors, and even now Geoff believes Justin to be a genuinely good person. And maybe he is."
Despair Island, Chapter 28

     Films - Live Action 
Ra's al Ghul: Crime. Despair. This was not how man was supposed to live. The League of Shadows has been a check against human corruption for thousands of years. We sacked Rome, loaded trade ships with plague rats. Burned London to the ground. Every time a civilization reaches the pinnacle of its decadence, we return to restore the balance.
Bruce Wayne: Gotham isn't beyond saving. Give me more time. There are are good people here.
Ra's al Ghul: You are defending a city so corrupt, we have infiltrated every level of its infrastructure. When I found you in that jail, you were lost. But I believed in you. I took away your fear, and showed you a path. You were my greatest student. It should be you standing by my side, saving the world.

Charlie: Look at us. We're basically waiters. That's what we do. We bring people stuff. We don't take things!
Josh: You and I know the movements of every person. We know the schedules, deliveries, and codes for every door and window. We've been casing the joint for over a decade and we just didn't know it!
Josh Kovaks to Charlie Gibbs, Tower Heist

Agent Claire Denham: It was smart. Thanksgiving, the parade, using Lester as a diversion, lying to me.
Josh Kovaks: We have reservations Saturday night at six different restaurants. I'll give you the names if you want to check.
Denham: That's okay, I trust you.
Agent Claire Denham congratulates Josh Kovaks on outsmarting the FBI as she arrests him, Tower Heist

     Literature 
"I have wanted... to commit a murder myself. I recognized this as the desire of the artist to express himself!... But—incongruous as it may seem to some—I was restrained and hampered by my innate sense of justice. The innocent must not suffer."
Judge Wargrave, And Then There Were None

"He was a soldier, a warrior, behind that relaxed smile and fatherly manner. He was going to get what he wanted and he was going to get it in the most efficient way possible. He was a dedicated man - dedicated to his goals, dedicated to his people. He never let fear affect him."
Harry Dresden describing "Gentlemen" Johnny Macrone, Storm Front (The Dresden Files)

"I'm cap'n here by 'lection. I'm cap'n here because I'm the best man by a long sea-mile. You won't fight, as gentlemen o' fortune should; then, by thunder, you'll obey, and you may lay to it!"
Long John Silver, Treasure Island

Madoc: Power. Power is the ability to get what you want. Power is the ability to be the one making the decisions. And how do we get power?
Jude Duarte: We learn how to fight well?
Madoc: We get power by taking it.

     Live-Action TV 
"You see, Doctor, you're my intellectual equal. Almost. I have too few worthy opponents. When they've gone I always miss them."
Unit era Master, Doctor Who

Ra's al Ghul: I know it's difficult to fathom, Bruce, but Jeremiah and I are doing this for your benefit.
Bruce Wayne: How is destroying Gotham supposed to help me?
Ra's al Ghul: Because I had a vision, that out of this crucible of blood and fire, will rise the Dark Knight that your city needs. That I need.
Gotham

"I haven't shown my hand - I've shown one card. I've given my enemies a single, provocative datum upon which to fixate. They have no idea what other cards I'm holding. It's a strong hand, believe me - I dealt it to myself."
Mr. House, Fallout: New Vegas

"From the moment you awoke, I have used you. I have used you so that you might become strong, stronger than I. I used you to keep the Lords of the Sith from condemning the galaxy to death with their power unchecked. I used you to lure them to Telos, where they could be at last fought and killed. I used you to reveal Atris' corruption so that her teaching could be ended before it began. I used you to gather the Jedi so that they could be destroyed. And I used you to make those who wounded me reveal themselves, so they could be killed by the Republic."

"I am waiting like an elevator. I have the commerce, I run Fawful's Bean 'n' badge but... The day comes soon when Fawful rises again, and then no baby's candy has safety! I am counting chickens before they are even eggs, before the chickens are even chickens! I! WILL! HAVE! FURY! I LAUGH AT DEFEAT! I FIGHT WITH RAGE! I HURT YOUR FACES!"

"You forgot who you talkin' to. My name is Benjamin muthafuckin' King. I'm the man who took my crew from being a bunch of baby gangstas in Sunnyvale to being one of the most influential and feared forces in the goddamn city. You know how I did that? I said, you know how I did that? I did it by knowing when it was time to build, when it was time to watch, and when it was time to act."
Benjamin King Saints Row 1

"He is a puzzle, wrapped in an enigma, shrouded in riddles, lovingly sprinkled with intrigue, express mailed to Mystery, Alaska, and LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU! but it is too late. You're dead. For he is the Spy - globetrotting rogue, lady killer (metaphorically) and mankiller (for real)."
The Spy's official bio, Team Fortress 2

     Western Animation 
"What David Xanatos wants, he gets. You haven’t got a clue! You’re so far behind him it’s pathetic. He told me to tell you. He doesn’t have to hide his plans from you. There’s not a thing you can do to stop him. He’s the most brilliant man on the face of the earth."
Fox on David Xanatos Gargoyles, "Her Brother’s Keeper"

"Interesting plan. Unfortunately for you, it's not really an option. President? Foolish, faceless man; my campaign is a farce! A small part of a much grander scheme. (chuckles) President...? Do you know how much power I'd have to give up to be President? That's right, conspiracy buff. I spent 75 million dollars on a fake Presidential campaign, all just to tick Superman off."
Lex Luthor, Justice League Unlimited, "Question Authority"

"Beware of Scorpio!
He'll sting you with his dreams of power and wealth!
Beware of Scorpio!
His twisted twin obsessions are his plot to rule the world and his employees' health!"
Scorpio's Theme, The Simpsons

@ nombretomado - I have a few corrections to request on the recent addition of Potema Septim to the [Monster/The Elder Scrolls page:

Can we change "having her bastard niece on the throne executed" to "alleging her niece (and rightful Empress) to be a bastard, then having her her exectuted" ? It is unclear if she actually was a bastard (and given Potema's status as a Complete Monster, it was very likely fabricated https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:People_K#Kintyra_II).

Also, can we change "daedra-dealing" to "daedra summoning"? I've never heard the term "dealing" used in the ES lore to describe that act, so this would be more accurate wording.

Finally, we can link "eternal torment of the Soul Cairn" to Fate Worse than Death? (There is already a description of the Soul Cairn on that page.)

Thank you! As always, your efforts are appreciated!

There are a couple of changes I want to make to the recent The Venture Bros. candidates on the Western Animation Magnificent Bastard page as I didn't realize until now that Colonel Badass was a trope. Both the edits fit the characters better.

Under Colonel Hunter Gathers, change the pothole Four-Star Badass to Colonel Badass.

Under General Timothy Treister, change the pothole Crazy Awesome to Four-Star Badass.

"If I could get rid of you three—the most complex characters in existence—then I can have this universe all to myself. You-Know-Who will never be able to find me. I will have created a whole new level of existence for me to reside in and rule over for all eternity.

The gods of Amonkhet roared and cursed, but no blow from their weapons would land. The trespasser's power was at least equal to their own. The dragon landed atop the tallest tower, closed his eyes, and began to channel a spell. The time for violent choices had come. The gods felt a surge of mana weave around the dragon as a tangle of malevolence. They grasped desperately for spells to protect and defend. But they were too slow. The dragon opened his eyes and every mortal old enough to walk dissipated into the sky. A brilliant white light engulfed Naktamun, and the seven gods fell to their knees in agony as countless souls vanished from existence.

Untold are the reaches of his barbarities, uncounted the number of his treacheries, beyond belief the depravities of his practices. Was ever such a vileness born of mortal flesh?"
Lives of the Depraved, by Konrad Steinhoff, Warhammer Fantasy RPG 1st ED—Castle Drachenfels

"Sakuma was a monster who gained the power of mind control and enjoyed it to the fullest. He only played at being a good doctor. Sakuma once saw me using packing tapes to treat an injury and laughed. 'Not bad,' he said. I didn't know what he meant. Do you remember the second murder? When Takayanagi, the street musician, was killed? Her stomach was cut open and a speaker was put inside. She was mind-controlled into using packing tape to stop the bleeding. When I saw him make her use her packing tape, I asked him why he was making her do that. And this is what he said. 'She's just like you, right? A doll. Isn't that funny?'... He's not normal. They talk about people who get pleasure from killing, but he's not even that. All he cares about is whether or not he finds something entertaining... and it doesn't have to be murder."

Makoto: You sacrificed your own sister....How does that not even bother you?!
Junko: What? I sacrificed her? That's what got you so hot under the collar? Jeez, Misunderstandings sure are scary! We were The Ultimate Despair, You know? So we never had any kind of hope, or expectations. No, I've felt despair as long I could remember, like I never should have been born at all. When I was born, I cried tears of total despair. So that's why for us, it's not a big deal whether we die or kill! We're just those kinds of people. We can do anything!
Aoi: So you just murdered your own sister, and didn't think anything of it?
Junko: ("Sad" Junko) That's not true at all... We were twins. How could I not be sad? That's why it gets me...so excited. Its like super super super super super super despair. No, more than that. It just feels...so...good...
Byakyua: I knew you couldn't be some ordinary person. You're some kind of.... abnormality.
Kyoko: Turning your own despair into some kind of fetish... abnormality doesn't even begin to describe it.
Junko: ("Monokuma" Junko) All i want is despair. And there's no reason for it. And since there's no reason, there's no argument against it. There's just no understanding it. What better definition of the ultimate despair could there be?!

"To show the world the murders taking placing at this school, which was meant to be a symbol of hope... That was the whole point of the Ultimate Despair! When I said "climax," THAT was what I was talking about! The world watched as you fell into despair, and began to kill each other one after another... Despair is as contagious as any disease; any hope left turns to despair. Puhuhu. Isn't the power of television just amazing!?"

Higanbana: You're going to call that boy who you treated so horribly as your plaything a "stupid kid"?
Nafumi: Yes I will. He was a stupid kid. He should have been a doll. A doll that only I could look at and only I could play with.
Higanbana: You are the epitome of selfishness. He showed his affection for you and sacrificed his body for your desires until he couldn't take it anymore... and you're not even the least bit sorry?
Nafumi: Ufufufu. UFUFUFUFU! Of course I'm not! I'm the queen bee!! The other bees show their affection to me and I will enjoy their honey! I AM the queen of this art room! It should be an honor to serve me! Those who don't feel honored are fools who need to know their place!!! Am I sorry for Yuuki-kun? Not even in the slightest!

Three years prior, when I met Morgana, she had been the victim of unspeakable abuse at the hands of the lord. I didn't know why he had done those things to her, and I didn't ask either—because I knew doing so would only open old wounds. All I knew was that the lord was so far gone as a human being as to brutally torture a nine-year-old girl.

Ceren: Is the lord really that bad of a guy?
Morgana: Oh, right... you haven't been here very long. You don't know what he's like. Yes, he is a terrible man. He oppresses his people and rejects the word of God. He is a cruel, heartless, barbaric madman. He deserves the strictest of judgements.

"I would have rather she died with less suffering... A bullet in her brain, perhaps, would have been ideal. Unfortunately, that would have made quite a bit of noise. Circumstances being what they were, I was forced to settle for the knife. The one the 9th Man had, you remember? I believe I caught her just below the shoulder blade. I was rather lucky, in fact. My first thrust went right between her ribs. Her flesh was so soft. My knife slid in so easily... There was no resistance. That feeling was... I confess, I feel rather excited. It is a... powerful memory. Someday, perhaps, I hope I can feel it again."

You’ve forced any 'stuck-up bitch' unlucky enough to cross your path to put out for you and your former 'crew', and then, either you kill them or blackmail them for it afterwards. You’ve murdered people. And obviously you and your pals seemed to enjoy beating homeless people to death for fun"

"Because I can. Because I will it. Because I hate. What sin is it to destroy those beneath me? What mistake is it to torture those who deserve what comes to them?"

"Your sister held a great power within her, something I had never seen prior. It required the prolonged presence of agony within her to properly awaken it...and I can tell you that her screams were lovely sounds to my ears. I drew out her suffering. It was fun causing you and your family misery."
Lucia, to Alessa Hopper, The City of Never

"I have no doubt in my mind that the Man in the Mask was somewhat mentally deranged, but he did hold one good position. I have spent my years researching and investigating the process in which monsters make their ways into human lives. It was my own doctoral thesis. But perhaps I had missed something. I had spent all this time proving that monsters could turn into men, perhaps I had overlooked how men could turn into monsters."
Dr. Michael Margin, after his encounter with the Man in the Mask. Dr Margin's Guide to New Monsters: The Man in the Mask

"Nyarlathotep. My name shall be on all lips in the world. It will be the final, manic thought all that lives shall ever know. The cry of my name shall harken the end of sanity, the advent of madness. It will be a new age, Daemon, as everything you know shall end... And I will hear you scream my name into an uncaring void as all you love is taken from you, your mind flayed bare offered before my master's court. When the only ears that can hear to care about your pain are mine."
Nyarlathotep, Nights In Lonesome Arkham

Rich Jacobs was beyond reason or conscience. Essential elements that made up a human being had never been part of him.

"I'm going to walk past you now. I'm going to go into that house. I'm going to complete the Necronomicon, and than I'm going to rip that human's mind apart and take back what's mine now. When you see what happens next? Oh, I'm going to tear it all apart, upend this world, reap the souls of everyone you ever loved, everyone you ever helped, every single mortal who's ever met your eyes and smiled. Everyone who ever knew you will be my plaything for all time. I'm going to call Azathoth down on your reality and do a repeat performance of what I just showed you. Now, if you'll excuse me, there's an apocalypse I need to kick start. But don't worry. You're going to get an amazing front row seat to the festivities."
Nyarlathotep to Hardestadt Delac, Nights In Lonesome Arkham

"I'll hurt them, Erin. I'll grab ten at random and tear their skin off. This is paradise compared to what I've done in other worlds...Ten, then a hundred, then a thousand. The children alone are in very, very high numbers. I'll peel them like fresh little grapes and make you hear every scream."
Nyarlathotep, to Erin Hasegawa, Nights In Lonesome Arkham

"You are marked as mine, as so many others are. In Italy, a man is plying a woman with drink to lay with her, and that is mine. In a prison in Russia, a man is forced by another prisoner. I am there for both of them again. I am there for every ravishment. It is mine, as you are mine! I am The Defiler, rapist of billions! I have taken worlds entire unto myself, savaged them until they begged with one voice for more! I have devoured and devoured until nothing remained save my own carnality. Join the revels you are meant to!"
Y'golonac the Defiler, Only a Lonely Heart

Felix: God, I just really want to savor this. You know, once the feds and rebels kill each other, I don't know what I'm gonna do. I mean, we've been playing these guys for years. How do you just walk away from something like that?
Tucker: What happened to retirement?
Felix: Oh, well, yeah I'll be filthy rich. But I'm still in my prime. There's so much more I could do.
Felix trying to kill Tucker, Red Vs Blue, Season 12, episode 18, "Fed vs. New"

"You still don't get it, do you? The entire reason you sim troopers were allowed to live this long? It's because you're all losers. Control was confident that you'd do more damage to these people than they could ever do to themselves... Locus and I figure we let you rack up the casualty count, then kill you after a few weeks. But then, you did something special. You gave these people hope. And with that, came a new level of motivation. To fight harder, to die faster. All with the belief that their sacrifice might actually mean something. But you know what, it all means nothing! At the end of the day, if I'm stronger than you, and if I'm faster than you, then I can kill you. And that's better than anything money can buy."
Felix, Red Vs Blue, Season 12, episode 18, "Fed vs. New"

Adam Taurus: You and I were going to change the world, remember? We were destined to light the fires of revolution!
Blake Belladonna: I never wanted this! I wanted equality! I wanted peace!
Adam: What you want is impossible! But I understand because all I want is you, Blake. And as I set out upon this world and deliver the justice mankind so greatly deserves, I will make it my mission to destroy everything you love.
RWBY, Volume 3, Chapter 11, "Heroes and Monsters"

Jaune Arc: What is wrong with you? How can you be so broken inside?! To take so many lives, and then come back here and rub it in our faces like it's something to be proud of?! ALL WITH THAT DAMN SMILE ON YOUR FACE! I'm gonna make you pay for what you did! Do you hear me?! Well?! Say something!!
Cinder: ...Who are you, again?
Cinder Fall being called out for her actions by Jaune Arc, RWBY, Volume 5, Chapter 11, "The More the Merrier."

"Today we face the greatest threat our country has ever faced: the threat of Communism. In his quest to dominate the world Joseph Stalin has taken measures that were too evil for even the Nazis. He has unleashed poison gas and hydrogen bombs, which make the bomb we dropped on Hiroshima seem like a child’s toy. He holds the people of Eastern Europe, China, and Southeast Asia in his iron fist. And he has launched another Final Solution against the Jews. To those who say we can peacefully coexist with such a monster I say: never forget! Never forget that the minute we let our guard down the Soviets will pounce, destroying everything we hold dear."

"If you lie to me, I will ruin you... I will place you back on that bed and I will inflict pain upon you such as you have never imagined. I will violate and mar your flesh in ways you cannot even fathom."
Siegfried Gunmarsohn to Erin Hasegawa, Under The Cold Moon

"These hillbilly Cokies think I'm meaner than Lucifer. Let's not disappoint them. Burn Myrtle Beach to the ground. Kill everyone you find."
Charles Oswald, What Madness is This?

"There is a certain people scattered and separated among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom; their laws are different from those of every other people, and they do not keep the king's laws, so that it is not appropriate for the king to tolerate them. If it pleases the king, let a decree be issued for their destruction, and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those who have charge of the king's business, so that they may put it into the king's treasuries."
Haman, Book of Esther

Takeshi: Okay, so maybe this is my last fight. But you'll never win—Exo-Force will never give up!
Meca One Prime: I don't expect them to surrender. I expect them to fight on and be defeated by my robots. Then I will use their example to convince the rest of the world to give in to my demands. My Sentries and Fire Vultures, my Thunder Furies and Sonic Phantoms, will smash the human defenses into rubble. Humanity will fall, Takeshi—starting with you!

"Tarkin, if ever there was a shred of humanity in you or these twisted creatures of yours, it's dead now. You're at war with life itself."
Princess Leia Organa, from the Star Wars Radio Dramas, after Grand Moff Tarkin wipes out her home planet

Can this be added to My Immortal?

  • Goths Have It Hard: The goths cut themselves for fun and try to kill themselves. In addition, most of the goths turned goth because of their tragic pasts (like Ron "Diablo" Weasley did it because his father raped him, Harry "Vampire" Potter did it because he'd gone through ambiguous "horrible problems", and Hermione "B'Loody Mary" Smith did it because she was kidnapped).
