~nombretomado: Sorry about that, my fault, wasn't aware videos needed to be under 2:30, new to this whole thing, lol. Anyway here's a quick fix:

No! That is NOT Solid Snake! Stop impersonating him!~Ravok, if you're new to this whole video thing - assuming you had brought up all three to the MB thread's attention - do you want to swing it past the Quality Control thread for videos
? Couldn't hurt.
The link to the Peanuts strip in the description of It Was His Sled is dead. Here
◊'s an archived version.

Er...why? If those pages don't exist and have never existed, chances are, they won't exist.
~@Delphine The Delphox In fact, the mods have to be the ones who cut and recreate the page, as only they can create pages in the Main namespace.

Quotes.Magnificent Bastard is currently disorganized, so I put this together. Please replace the quotes on the page with the following:
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.
Jude Duarte: We learn how to fight well?
Madoc: We get power by taking it.
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.
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!"

@ 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.
Think you're tough because you made it through Lord of the Rings? Real men survive The Silmarillion.At Buffyverse, for Angelus, please add a comma between Big Bad and The Master (and change AKA to aka).
At Film please add two apostrophes in front of "Blast" to italicize it.
At Tabletop Games please add two apostrophes in front of Settra's quote to italicize it as well.
At Other Media please change the apostrophe at the end of Dungeons & Dragons under the Web Original section to a colon.
Thank you!

Please replace the appropriate folders at Complete Monster with these (Music and Webcomics are fine; I'll be working on the others):
Zykan: Oh, is that so? Do not forget who you speak to Talzo [Proceeds to beat Talzo].
Talzo: EYAARGGHH!!
Zykan: I am greater than you, boy. Perhaps it’s time that I took your place. Your sympathy holds your back, whereras I have no such weakness.
"I fucking hate my mom."
Ruby: So what? Now you're going to kill me?
Mewtwo: Oh no, I really am grateful for all you've done for me, Ruby. I just want to leave this cave and enjoy my freedom. And I guess I might as well kill all humans and conquer the world while I'm out there. But don't worry... I'll save you for last.
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?!
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!
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.
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.
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.
Cinder: ...Who are you, again?
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!
Also, at Web Original, for Red vs. Blue, a few slight additional potholings:
- For Sigma, for "most evil AI", please pothole AI to Red vs. Blue - Artificial Intelligences.
- For Hargrove, please change "corrupt CEO of Charon Industries" to corrupt CEO of Charon Industries
- For Genkins, please change "The Cosmic Powers" to "the Cosmic Powers"

Please Change A God Am I to Godhood Seeker for the following
- Agreggor from Ben 10 : Ultimate Alien in Monster.Western Animation. Also wrap That same trope around his name in his entry in MagnificentBastard.Western Animation as well.
- Father in Fullmetal Alchemist
- Shem Shem Tsiem of the angelmaker novel in Literature: A to C
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).

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.
