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.

On The New '20s page, The Boy and the Heron is listed by the English translation of its Japanese name, How Do You Live?, which shows up as a redirect.

On the page for Seltzer and Friedberg, please change the wick for WesternAnimation.Kung Fu Panda in the Narrow Parody entry to WesternAnimation.Kung Fu Panda 1, since it's specifically referring to the first movie.

Please change ComicBook.The Warlord DC to ComicBook.The Warlord DC Comics on the following pages:

Also the formatting on Sideboob needs to be fixed. Please change "folder: " to "folder:".

Also also I don't like how many times I said Sideboob.

There are three reviews at https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/reviews.php?target_group=Anime&target_title=YuYuHakusho that should be merged with https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/reviews.php?target_group=Manga&target_title=YuYuHakusho at the right namespace.

Stories don't tell us monsters exist; we knew that already. They show us that monsters can be trademarked and milked for years.

Mostly done to here, although with some of these reviews I wonder if they belong to the anime rather than the manga. Didn't do the video moves as videos are in the purview of the video thread, not this one.

In MagnificentBastard.Marvel Cinematic Universe, change the following text.

    Current text 
  • Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) & Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2: Yondu Udonta, a former Kree battle slave and later Ravager, was hired to kidnap the children of Ego to deliver them to him for a fortune. Upon realizing the children were being murdered, Yondu rescued the last of them, Peter Quill, and raised him as a flawed but devoted father. Yondu proceeds to hunt down the Power Stone in Peter's possession, keeping a step ahead of nearly everyone before showing little but pride in Peter swapping the Stone out for a troll doll. After a mutiny in the second film, Yondu is able to almost singlehandedly avenge his loyalists and wipe out his enemies before heading to save Peter from Ego and ultimately proves instrumental in stopping the mad Celestial. Acknowledging Peter as his true son, Yondu chooses to give his life for Peter, honored at the end with a funeral as a true Ravager.

Another one for Permanent Red Link Club - I'd like for the following entries:

to be changed like so:

In addition, I'd like for the Detractor Nickname entry to be moved to the "Potshot redirects" folder, cuz as written it seems like the page was cut and locked for that reason, rather than just being complaining.

Detractor Nickname doesn't belong in "Potshot redirects", because the redirect itself was never a potshot.

(But while we're talking about potshots, I wouldn't be surprised if Bishie Nazi Buttsex ends up back on the list some day. It was a Hetalia redirect. No, this isn't an actual request to add it, at least not yet.)

Should we lock UsefulNotes.Josef Stalin temporarily to prevent comparisons between him with Vladimir Putin and prevent premature analysis on the Ukraine war?

Another MagnificentBastard.Marvel Cinematic Universe change is needed. Please change the following text.

    original text 
  • The man once known as Alveus, upon Kree experimentation, was forever transformed into "Hive." Through sheer intellect and force of will, Hive drove the Kree from earth, rallying all Inhumans to his side in the process, and though banished from earth by treacherous followers, Hive nonetheless laid the groundwork for the formation of HYDRA, the death cult organization that has haunted the world for centuries after. In the present, Hive manipulates himself back to earth with help from Gideon Malick, and immediately amasses a small following of Inhumans. Using Malick before murdering him once he outlives his usefulness, Hive stays one step ahead of S.H.I.E.L.D. throughout the series, even turning Daisy Johnson to his side and using her as a mole. Though driven temporarily insane, Hive is revealed to have exaggerated even this as a plot to be captured, then use S.H.I.E.L.D.'s own devices to enact his final plan of turning a chunk of humanity into Inhumans so as to create a perfect, peaceful paradise. Hive's final moments are spent calmly reflecting that he truly wanted what was best for Inhumans, and dies realizing and admitting that perhaps humanity isn't as deserving of destruction as he once thought.

Please add Bug Jar Poison, Gu and Jincan, and Kodoku as search redirects for newly launched trope Evolutionary Pressure Cooker.

  • Bug Jar Poison is a search term I myself used when trying to find the previously nonexistent trope for this.
  • Gu and Jincan are the two Chinese names for the folkloric technique that inspired most Eastern media depictions; Kodoku is the Japanese name.
