King of the Ring '93 GA

You think the PPV abbreviation idea is a good one? If so then apply it. Otherwise I'm ready to pass this for GA. I'm especially happy with the improvements to the lead as I think half the readers only fully pay attention to the first part of most articles :( Good work and keep on editing! (courtesy link) Sillyfolkboy (talk) 22:18, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

I think that as long as you spell it out ("pay-per-view") on its first instance along with it's abbreviation then it's perfectly encyclopaedic. Also, PPV is an abbreviation found throughout the wrestling world and it's respective press so I think it's perfectly acceptable usage. For example look at Irritable bowel syndrome: IBS is a commonly used medical acronym that may not be so well known outside of the medical world but it's usage is fine for that article. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 00:10, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

The article has passed. Congratulations and thank you for being a responsive editor. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 00:47, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

By the way, that fifteen minute draw between Tatanka and Lex Luger sounds like the most painful match ever. At least the draw meant neither had to make a second appearance! You can guess the quality (or lack thereof) of a wrestler when his finisher is a running forearm. Oh dear... Sillyfolkboy (talk) 01:07, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

No problems, it was my pleasure. It's quite amazing what you and the PW wikiproject have achieved. I imagine it can get exhausting for editors to continually see wrestling articles but if other projects were similarly motivated then there wouldn't be such a disparity between topics. Indeed it's slightly embarrassing that I'm possibly the most prolific editor of sprinting articles; something I consider one of my lesser interests. Keep up with the good work and GA reviews! Sillyfolkboy (talk) 04:07, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Congrats

On King of the Ring. What is the next article you're going to get to GA?--WillC 00:58, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, good luck with those. The backlog on the sports section is extremely long, I wish there were more GA reviewers. I should review an article but I don't have time and I'm unsure of myself. Hopefully you'll get lucky and get them reviewed soon. Well uf you do, it is either WrestleMania 8 or King of the Ring 95, I would choose Mania. A Featured Topic of all the Wrestlemanias would be good if there were enough people to work on them. I feel all articles should be of a featured quality, in this case WrestleMania definitely should be. Breaks are good, but wikipedia is addicting. Lets see if you can last.--WillC 03:53, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Royal Rumble (1993)

Hi, just a quick note to say that I've reviewed this article. The article is close to GA and I've placed it on hold to give you time to address the suggestions. I had a bit of a chuckle at your stipulation that it not be reviewed by someone in WP:PW, because you ended up with a reviewer with little knowledge of wrestling! Thankfully, there were many helpful internal links, so I was able to understand everything with a little extra reading. ;) Regards, Somno (talk) 04:40, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Re:Accusation

I made no accusation, did I direct to a specific person? No, but the project itself because a discussion seem to be diverted another way because people don't want to discuss it and would rather "expand articles." Expanding articles is not only part of the project, discussing things related to the project is important. By drama, I mean how discussions are diverted another way, which unforutnately, we did during that discussion. Imaturriy, I mean by those users who seem to not abide to Wiki policies and who want an article their way. Now, I take offense by your accusation of me "telling people they were wrong." I just responded back to their points by pointing out to proof and evidence of why it should be name another way. Sigh, can we please just avoid this drama. I'm sorry, there, we're both happy now. Lets get back to editing :)--Truco 21:53, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Thank you, as yourself is also doing great with the DYK's. I thought you left the project, however?--Truco 21:59, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

I see what you mean. I know that I increased the drama with I said. But like Truco said, you came in and diverted the discussion, saying that it was not important and that there were better things to do. Truco and I felt that it was important, though. You and I may have both been a bit uncivil, but I respect that you kept your cool. Let's just avoid the uncalled for drama. I hope that we have come to an understanding. ₰imon^KSK 22:27, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

A quick suggestion. Maybe worth having a level 2 header called history, with the different teams as level three headers. It may also be good (if you can find the info) if you put a bit of background into how each team got to have that name.

Re:St. Louis Hall of Fame

It looks good. The only thing, however, is that you need to be consistent with the "inducted for". Like announcer should be announcing and promoter should be promoting. In addition, it needs to be more specific, is it ring announcing or commentating? The Dick the Bruiser entry should sort with "D" because people wouldn't just call him the bruiser, its like The Great Khali, it should sort with "K". The notes should also be formatted more like the ones from my FLC's, because now that they have been there, reviewers would like to see consistency, and if we want a featured topic, they all have to be consistent in formatting.--TRUCO 19:55, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Looks good, I fixed the sorting issue. You want me to copyedit the lead for you?--TRUCO 19:09, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

Thats fine with me. You want me to copy the refs into the article or were you just saying that in general? While I was doing the copyedit, I found some problems

• To be inducted into the Hall of Fame, inductees must have held a title belt or played an important role in the area between 1959 and 1983, when the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) promotion had a strong presence in St. Louis. - when it says in the area do you mean it in geographical terms or in time?
• I like the way its written because it is different from my style :); however, FL standards is to have the history of the said subject to be in the beginning paragraphs and the summary of the list itself to be the final paragraphs. So, the prose about the plaque and the mall, and other information that is not a summary of the list should go in the beginning paragraphs and the last paragraph should be the summary prose, like I did with the WCW and NWA articles.
• I would be consistent with the real names; some of them have their middle name, but others don't, so it would be best just to list them with their first and last name.
• Kayfabe memories is not reliable and will probably be mentioned at FLC
• Note 17 should be a footnote and not necessarily a reference, in addition it needs to be verified.
• I'm not sure whether Harleyrace.com has any affiliation with Harley Race, which is why I didn't use that ref for the other lists.
• Some of the notes aren't complete sentences yet they have full stops, like Born in St. Louis and began wrestling career working for Muchnick's NWA. Won NWA Women's World Tag Team Championship. can be reworded to "Born in St. Louis, began wrestling career working for Muchnick's NWA, and won the NWA Women's World Tag Team Championship" (For the titles, they need to have "the" before them)

--TRUCO 15:00, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Your welcome. It really depends, those are wrestling personalities praising the website, not necessarily other 3rd party sourced. I would have replacement refs ready just in case it cant work out with that site. As for HarleyRace, I don't think he is involved at all. I would replace his ref with other references that state the same thing. Yeah, when I work on that (after at least one of my FLCs pass) I will just copy the sources, its tiring to look for all those refs =).TRUCO 17:38, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Hall of Fame

I can understand that it's not easy to get information, been there and is still trying my best to do that. But since I've already been down that path with the Kangaroos and a load of other Mexican articles I do belive you're in luck. I've got excellent sources on all of them.

Kangaroos
<ref name="TagKanga">{{cite book | author=Greg Oliver and Steve Johnson | title= The Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame: The Tag Teams | publisher=ECW Press | year=2005 | chapter= Top 20: #1 The Fabulous Kangaroos | pages= 17-24 | id=ISBN 978-1-5502-2683-6}}</ref>

This really excellent book has a whole chapter dedicated to the team including their real names and confirmation of any major wrestling title the two won. I'd say that's plenty reliable :) hell it's got information on a TON! of teams. If you're interested I got a chapter overview to show which teams are covered here Project: Tag Team in case some of the other people on the list needs another boost.

Title information on the Mexicans
Well if their reigns are from before 2000 and except some of Negro Casas' reigns they are then I got the "Bible of Title history" to back me up.

<ref>{{cite book | author=Royal Duncan & Gary Will | title=Wrestling Title Histories | publisher=Archeus Communications | year= 2000 | chapter= TBD | Page = TBD| id=ISBN 0-9698161-5-4}}</ref>

All you need are the specific chapter names & pages for each wrestler. if you tell me which titles you need references for I'll get you the specific chapternames & page numbers for you, no problem.MPJ-DK (talk) 07:08, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Coach me on DYKs?

Hey, I was thinking about nominating a few DYKs from a few articles. Could you tell me how to find a good DYK?--WillC 04:38, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

I have an article in mind. I have it almost complete in a subpage. It is Against All Odds 2005. Never been created or worked on. I'm having problems with the nomination process or what to put down. See the main event had a stipulation that Jeff Jarrett couldn't use his guitar at all or he would be DQ'ed and lose the heavyweight title. Even if he wasn't seen using it. There is a spot in the match in which Jarrett uses a cello instead of a guitar to out smart Dusty Rhodes who made the stipulation. I was thinking something along the lines of: "Did you know that at Against All Odds (2005), Jeff Jarrett used a cello in his match with Kevin Nash". Something along those lines. There might be another. There was an Iron Man match that ended in a draw. It went into overtime, I'm not sure if that is one either. Plus a new gimmick match debuted there as well. I'm having more problems on which is one and which ones I shouldn't even think about. As well I don't know the nomination process. Well, I don't understand it is what I mean. When I read it I got confused somehow.--WillC---(What the F*** have you done lately???!!) 20:32, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Okay, how many can I nominate per article? Seeing there were two unannounced nor rumored debuts that I forgot about during the main event. Thanks for the help, as soon as I get the aftermath finished I'm going to place it in the article.--WillC---(What the F*** have you done lately???!!) 00:22, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Alright, good to know. Thanks for the help.--WillC---(What the F*** have you done lately???!!) 00:37, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

SNME

First of all, awesome name. :) And second, hello to a fellow GA reviewer! :) Also, yeah, feel free to do the episode citations. Send me a message on my talkpage with what exactly you have in mind (How you would write the sentence, and how you would cite the factoid,) and if it looks good (Which it no doubt will, as everyone does things better than me, :P) I'll add it. Thank you so much for your help! Have a great day! :) CarpetCrawler (talk) 00:13, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Here's how the sentence is currently written. ""Take Me Home" was also the closing theme song for the World Wrestling Entertainment's television show, Saturday Night's Main Event from 1985 to 1988." Thank you once again! CarpetCrawler (talk) 00:15, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Thank you! Did both episodes air on the same day, October 6th? I watched them when they originally aired, but I do not remember if they aired the show every few months or so... CarpetCrawler (talk) 00:36, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

		The Guidance Barnstar
		For pointing me in the right direction in sourcing an important piece of information for the articles No Jacket Required and "Take Me Home (Phil Collins song)". Many thanks for your quick, prompt, and kind help! CarpetCrawler (talk) 02:24, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

The "Neutral" vote

You are wrong. You said we should leave it even though it doesn't add to consensus, just because it doesn't hurt consensus. Although I agree that if it didn't hurt consensus, we should leave it, this is a different story. A "Neutral" section DOES hurt consensus. Imagine if more users, who don't know what to do about the subject add themselves to the "Neutral" section. And, if you see, there will be approximately 6 people who support a move, 3 who oppose it and 15 people who are "neutral". The obvious agreement between most is "Whatever, we don't care enough to make a decision". See what I mean? It does hurt consensus when all you want to do is

a. express your thoughts even though they're irrelevant ones

b. say comments that go against the consensus making (like creating a Neutral section)

c. continue exploiting your inability to make a choice in a discussion where the only constructive and helpfulopinions are the formal, concrete, and decisive opinions.

All those he did in the discussion, albeit it was unintentional. I understand it was unintentional, but it doesn't change the fact that these are the effects. In retaliation, I deleted the section, expressed my comments, explained why it is against WP:CONSENSUS and left all of his comments in tact (obviously, except his vote [although we are not [[WP:VOTE|voting]). I find it unfair that after I explained myself, and obviously didn't delete any comment, you still accused me of it. I've never been accused of it, but I have accused others, so I will never.

Question?

Do you happen to have an I.M. account of any short? I would like to talk to you. I got one on Yahoo, Windows, and Myspace.--WillC---Joe's gonna kill you!!!) 02:44, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Okay, I'll just send you an e-mail.--WillC---Joe's gonna kill you!!!) 02:52, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

I prefer Title History is why I do it. Most people link to Title History. Plus it is a proper term so I think it should have both capitalized. But that is just me.--WillC---Joe's gonna kill you!!!) 05:32, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Alright, I'll start making sure it says "Title history". I'm looking through all the titles and making sure they all do not have date linking problems.--WillC---Joe's gonna kill you!!!) 05:37, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Also, thanks for the advice on the Did You Know process. As you probably can see, Against All Odds (2005) got a DYK. The first TNA one I believe and first PPV one in a long time to my knowledge. Plus it is also TNA's first PPV DYK.--WillC---Joe's gonna kill you!!!) 05:39, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Well there are more to come. If I can complete all of these articles, then I'll make a DYK out of each. Most I'll have to create. Some already exist but are low in characters so I'll have them expanded 5 times each. I also like Nikki's idea. I have the page on my watchlist, I forget which number we are up too, either in the late 70s or early 80s on DYKs. Well now, you are better off watching ROH's new show on HDnet. Here is a link to their new show: [1]. That is the best wrestling going today. TNA lost all sense of direction. I hope they get back to their old ways, but now they seem like Raw. A crap load of promos and about 20 minutes of wrestling. Though last week's episode was very good. TNA are trying to raise the bar with Samoa Joe's new gimmick in which he gets himself DQed then beat the living hell out of the guy. Last week he hung a guy upside down by his feet and beat him like a pinata with a kendo stick. It was funny and great. Most hate it, since it is controversial, but I loved it. They need to raise the bar. Check it out if you want. They have a few good things going now but at the moment WWE are doing better. Hopefully after the storyline involving The Main Event Mafia and The TNA Front Line in over, they'll go back to their old ways. Sting is supposed to retire this year. Angle might head back to WWE. If that is the case, then we'll get new blood in the main event. Sometimes I wish TNA would have never got Sting nor Angle, because since then TNA have been catering to them.--WillC---Joe's gonna kill you!!!) 06:57, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Re: The Girl Is Mine

Little help?

Hey Gary! Listen, you're like the DYK expert for WP:PW, since you've gotten so many, so I was wondering if you could help me out. I expanded Jonny Storm today, and I'd like to nominate it as A DYK, but I can't think of a good hook. I was wondering if you had any suggestions? Thanks, ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 21:52, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Brilliant, thanks. I know, I think too much emphasis gets put on US wrestlers at times, so I'm thinking about making it my goal to work on the the more neglected European ones. Ah, well. Thanks for the help, really appreciate it! ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 22:06, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Johnny Valentine

I'm sorry: I saw your comment on my talk page a while ago, but I totally forgot about it until now. That sounds great, and thanks for making it a co-nom, as it looks like you did most of the hard work. Thanks, Genius101^Guestbook 21:30, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Good articles

Greetings! I noticed you promoted Ice block expedition of 1959 to a good article. Thanks for reviewing articles for Wikipedia! However, you didn't include an oldid in the template. (This puts it in Category:Good articles without an oldid for other volunteers to clean up later.) I looked through the history and added "oldid=280965093" to it, so no problems, but I just wanted to let you know that if you add oldid when you promote, it can save us some time. All the best, – Quadell ^(talk) 15:14, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Another DYK

I'm thinking about nominating another DYK, but I can't seem to think of a way to phrase the one I have in my mind. Not sure if you can have a DYK on List articles, but I was thinking of doing one on something I just finished in a subpage. After I write this message I will have moved it to the main page. It is List of TNA World Tag Team Champions. Sting is a former champion but never actually won the belt. He won a match to become Angle's tag team partner. Then there are two other topics, that Samoa Joe and Kurt Angle both held a tag team championship by themselves. Not sure which to go with or how to phrase either one of them. Off the top of my head, "Did you Know that professional wrestler Samoa Joe is a former TNA World Tag Team Champion, but held the belt by himself?" As for the Sting one "Did You Know that professional wrestler Steve Borden, otherwise known as Sting, held the TNA World Tag Team Championship with Kurt Angle but he was not involved in the match that won the championship?" Since with all your experience do you think you could give an opinion on this matter? The main problem I have is involving the name of the article: List of TNA World Tag Team Champions. I keep thinking I can just shorten it down to TNA World Tag Team Champion.--WillC 03:52, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Okay, I guess you can find my subpages pretty well then. I'll add it to the lead then. Thanks for the help. Just to make sure first, you looked at User:Wrestlinglover/List of TNA World Tag Team Champions?--WillC 04:32, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

I moved the article to the main page a few minutes after I said I was going to and I also added a bit of prose explaining that two people have held the title alone. It is the last few setences in the lead at List of TNA World Tag Team Champions.--WillC 04:41, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Wouldn't the general ref cover that?--WillC 04:48, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

Okay, minor inconvenience, I'll go find a reliable one. Thanks for the help.--WillC 04:51, 4 April 2009 (UTC)

I was not vandalizing

If you looked at the source you would of seen that it was Damien's youtube page. You would also see that it says he passed away yesterday. I don't know of anything more offcial than that but if the man's page says he died, and it has videos confirming this than it is not vandalizing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.37.228.163 (talk) 18:24, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Once again you failed to look at the source.

I don't feel it's very fair that you jump to conclusions so quick without fact-checking first. HIS YOUTUBE PAGE SAYS HE DIED. HE HAS VIDEOS EXPRESSING CONCERN FOR HIS HEALTH AND A NEW ONE TODAY SAYING HE OFFICIALLY DIED. I know you feel this is a joke but try fact checking first. —Preceding unsigned comment added by GaryColemanFanboy (talk • contribs) 18:46, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

I fixed the source

IT should work now. It'll prove he died. —Preceding unsigned comment added by GaryColemanFanboy (talk • contribs) 18:53, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Greetings from MP:PWetc.

Thank you, I got tired of similar things and well I've always liked to walk my own path you know. I've also found that the research part is very interesting, I've learned so much about the history of wrestling. Btw. one of the things I'm doing is compiling sources on the "non-mainstream" parts of wrestling, I've got some really good sources on various books listed under "Book Sources", including the three "Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame" ("Tag Teams", "Heels" & "Canadians") books which are awesome - if you ever find you need some info from one of the books listed (or the magazine source library I'm slowly building) just say the word and I'll look it up for you.

Re:Moves

You have been very critical about the moves I have nominated, the voting process, the updating of the BEL page, as well as other issues. I have tried to do these so they can be in accordance with the guidelines, but apparently you aren't the only one that disagrees. I don't know what I can do to make these contributions more helpful as they are intended. I would like for you to help me with this goal. Thank you, Raaggio 20:37, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure I understand now. You're right, I've been here since 2006 [although the last 6 months I wasn't very active, but still]. I see that a lot of members only care about a lot of unimportant stuff like the color scheme. But, you're right, I did go guideline crazy. I just wanted to get more active again and do things that were more productive, and when I researched the guidelines and discovered one like WP:STAGENAME that nobody in the project knew about, I thought it would be productive to begin implementing them. For the same reasons I implemented the Broken Links tool. I was getting very wikipediholic, but nevertheless, I'll start doing more productive things like reviewing at GAN, updating lists, prefecting pictures with PhotoShop (as not a lot of people have this program), etc. I'm sorry for the unnecessary discussions, moving page after page does not help the encyclopedia. Maybe eventually, when all major problems with the articles would be fixed, we can settle on smaller bits like page titles, but for now, we can focus on the betterment of the articles. Thanks, Happy Easter to you to (even though it's a little late). Raaggio 10:45, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Second opinion

Okay, I just finished the TNA X Division Championship, and the bytes are at 12,495, when the article was at 3,770. That is not 5x expanded, but is it expanded by prose characters or by total?
