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:
- Check Locked Pages and Permanent Red Link Club first. They can provide guidance on what are good and bad requests.
- Include working links in your request to the page(s) in question.
- 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.
- We do not edit archived articles, even to correct links.
- If you need to have the capitalization of a page title or namespace of a work fixed, ask here
.
- If you need to remove a ghost wick, go here.
- To request a page to be moved along with its history, go here.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

I have a version of Horny Devils that's been cleaned of content violations waiting in the Sandbox, if a mod wouldn't mind switching it out. Thanks.

Hi

I posted a comment in that thread...haven't heard from anyone else (yet).
There has been a consensus that Hopper is not a Complete Monster and has to be removed from Disney list. While his actions are certainly horrible, he still has one good quality that negates his CM status.
EDIT; Oh wait! stop, don't remove yet. There has been NO final decision yet.

On Characters.Sengoku Rance, Rape Discretion Shot, and Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil, please change all instances of Its Not Rape If You Enjoyed It to its new name, "Not If They Enjoyed It" Rationalization.
Thanks!
Hello! Glad I found this thread because whenever I needed something changed on a locked page, I would put it in the "this page needs assistance with" page. Is it okay if I still do that or should I start posting in this thread now?
Momentum, a function of mass and velocity, is conserved between portals. In layman's terms: speedy thing goes in, speedy thing comes out.
Better here; this thread is dedicated to the job.
Also, Rob Liefeld needs Over The S Houlder Pose renamed to Boobs-and-Butt Pose

Cruft clean up for Wikipedia. "Averted hard" is used twice: under Conversation On The Main Page and Thread Mode.

No Dragon Power
We should add The Sneaky Guy to Five-Man Band's Associated Character Tropes.

With the power of a dragon I can make up for my inability to spill.

WallBangers.WWE has a The Addams Family wick that needs to be namespaced to Series/.
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.
Hi
Done to here.
TV Tropes' very wikibot
Gor has to be changed to Literature.Gor on Double Standard and Sex Slave.
Get rid of the walled garden
Did that.
Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. Dick
Ctrl+Alt+Del needs A Worldwide Punomenon renamed to Incredibly Lame Pun
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynman
TVTropesTheTVShow.Proposed Recurring Fictites needs one wick to Alice In Wonderland be amended to Literature/AliceInWonderland.
Let's just say and leave it at that.
Can Main.Ghastlys Ghastly Comic be restored as a redirect to Webcomic.Ghastlys Ghastly Comic? While there is only a single inbound, there are 43 redlinks that need to be namespaced.
(Avatar by Coffee)
That's rather pointless. I'll just namespace them all — 43 38 wicks aren't that much.
The Other Troper
Also Ghastly's Ghastly Comic needs the "Naughty Tentacles" line removed.
I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.
The subpages need to be restored (or at least unlocked) as well though, and the Main/ redirect is necessary to be able to navigate back to the main page.
(Avatar by Coffee)
There's a wick for Ghastlys Ghastly Webcomic that needs namespacing to Webcomic/ in Troll.
(There's also one in Legal Jailbait, but I assume the page is going to be swapped for the Sandbox at some point in the future, and I've namespaced that one).
I'm working on that sandbox myself, and yes, that is the intention. There's a lot of examples that are really just Older Than They Look/Really 700 Years Old, some de-gushing, and a lot of namespacing and organizing. I'll post in P5 cleanup to get a second opinion when I'm done by my standards.
I'd like to add an in-universe example to Mondegreen:
- The song "Pontoon" by Little Big Town came about as the result of a mondegreen. Co-writers Luke Laird and Natalie Hemby wrote a song for Miranda Lambert called "Fine Tune"; a publisher later inquired about the song, but thought that it was called "Pontoon". After Hemby corrected him, the two thought that they actually should try writing a song called "Pontoon".

There are 24 Circular Links on Moral Guardians that need to be de-Wiki Worded. (Two of them are just Moral Guardian in the singular).
On Pædo Hunt, there are several works that need namespacing (in order, from the top of the page down, we have):
- Spider Man to Franchise.Spider-Man
- The Outsiders is listed as a comic book. Since it's not referring to the S.E. Hinton novel, it probably needs to be wicked to Batman And The Outsiders
- Nightmare On Elm Street (to Film/)
- Kill Bill (to Film/)
- Batman (to Franchise/)
- Blakes Seven (to Series/)
- The George Lopez Show (page still in Main/) needs to be made into a Wiki Word for linking
- Saturday Night Live (to Series/)
- The Daily Show (to Series/)
- In the Anonymous example, Oprah could be potholed to The Oprah Winfrey Show (still in Main/)
- CSI (to Series/)
- Dexter (to Series/)
- Insane Clown Posse (to Music/)
- Grand Theft Auto IV (to VideoGame/)
- Perry Bible Fellowship is listed as a webcomic. The folder needs to be switched to Newspaper Comics, and the wick needs to be moved from Webcomic/ to ComicStrip.The Perry Bible Fellowship
- Monkey Dust (to WesternAnimation/)
- South Park (to WesternAnimation/)
On Mary Sue, there are several instances of The Wesley which need to be renamed to Creator's Pet. There's also at least one wick of So Bad Its Horrible, which needs to be moved to Darth.
On The Fundamentalist, an example:
- In YuYu Hakusho, the Armed Church of the True Disciples is a fanatical religious sect which believes that the spirit world beings are emissaries from God, preaching a hard-line stance against the Demon World (whose inhabitants are regarded as the spawn of the devil) and who are prepared to fire the Interdimensional Laser at the human world to get their demands met.

Also, The Lonely Island had a link to "Rhianna". The spelling's wrong — that should be Rihanna.
For Monster.Fallout, all I ask is that Fallout should be namespaced. Fallout: New Vegas too.

I now go by Graf von Tirol.
We should be caught up.
