Well, a lot of the Sequel Trilogy character sheets were having issues, but I don’t remember this one being brought up at all.

There is a lock in the system but no rationale.

If there's no known reason, should the lock just be removed? If stupidity subsequently it could always just be locked again.

Yes, if there's not a reason, can it be unlocked, please? Can you just do so Septimus, or do I need to make a request in the Locked Pages: Lock, Un Lock and Edit requests thread? Is that thread even active anymore? The FAQ link I went to from the Locked Pages page looks like it hasn't been commented on since 2010.

Just FYI, the Locked Pages thread has been consistently active since its creation. You just need to hit the last page button (the one with the >> symbol) at the top of the first post to go to the most recent page.

^ Ah, thank you! I thought it was weird no one had apparently commented for almost ten years. I assumed page 1 would include the most recent edits - it's literally page 1! I haven't spent much time on threads or forums on this site, don't always know my way around them.

Now that I can read the thread properly, it looks like somebody just sandboxed the Star Wars – Resistance Heroes page, but just as part of a request they had made to unmark spoilers and fix some formatting. I'm not seeing any other mention of the page, even weeks back before The Rise of Skywalker even came out. I'm going to take this over to the Locked Pages thread, now that I know how to see new posts.

Posted in the locked/edit requests thread, but pretty sure this was a casualty of the various post-TROS subpage lockings. I've unlocked it, and we'll see how it goes.
