PPV Question
Hi. I'm Adamaniac, a semi-dormant Wiki-editor, but I'm on holidays, got bored and found that the PW section of Wikipedia has finally pulled itself together and started improving the class of all its articles. I had a look at the PPV list and had a question for anoyne that could answer. I see that besides the WWE No Way Out article, there's the seperate articles for years (E.G. WWE No Way Out 2007). My question is relating to whether or not we are changing all past PPVs (such as Backlash 03, for example, because the Backlash PPV page is not divided into seperate year articles). An answer would be appreciated, as I can devote some time and effort into helping create and improve some of these articles. Thanks! Adamaniac Ad@maniac 14:47, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- The reason that some articles are split, and some aren't is becasue we aren't splitting articles in any particular order. I recently did New Year's Revolution (2007), WrestleMania III, Cyber Sunday (2007) and I am going to begin Armageddon (2007). However, New Year's Revolution (2005), Cyber Sunday (2006), WrestleMania 2 and all past Armageddons aren't expaneded. You can choose anyone you like. Now, we are going to turn all the general pages like the one you mentioned up there WWE No Way Out into FLs. Feedback ☎ 15:16, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Yep, we are gradually splitting all PPVs up into their own articles. Which PPV were you thinking on working on? I can give you a hand to get started if you wish! :) Davnel03 15:05, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Ah, welcome back. The more active members, the better. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 16:54, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
indeed! P X K 17:34, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the welcome back, guys :) Seeing as I'm allowed to choose, and I remember some events more clearly etc etc, I'll head up the New Years Revolution 2005 page to start with. Any help or advice, Davnel, would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking forward to helping the professional wrestling project here! Adamaniac Ad@maniac 01:30, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
- Yep, you may want to look at the PPV Guidelines page to help you. If you want, I can shift the necessary 2005 NYR content and create the standard layout at New Year's Revolution (2005). As soon as you finish NYR 2005, the NYR series will be complete. I will then have the task of turning WWE New Year's Revolution into a table, like WWE One Night Stand. :P Davnel03 09:43, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
- Ah, I see you've already started. If you need any help, ask me on my talkpage, or look at similar articles to get a grasp of how to write PPV articles, e.g. (December to Dismember (2006) ; No Way Out (2006)). Also, don't forget to reference things! Davnel03 09:47, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks a ton Davnel, you've been great help and thanks for welcoming me back :). I've started the page as you said and I've been using the 2006 NYR page as well as D2D2006 for format etc and I've noted all the reference sites. Cheers again! AdaManiac 11:14, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
Can a notice be sent to all WikiProject Pro Wrestling members with an announcement for them to add themselves to this list? Feedback ☎ 22:53, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- If someone wants to be on the list, they'll put them self there.«»bd(talk stalk) 23:35, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- I think Feed meant more of a notification that the list exists so they were aware. However, I think a much better indicator of who is actually active in the project (not just people who work on pro wrestling articles, but work within the project which is what the list is for) is that people who actually ARE active in the project, browse the project pages from time to time and will find the list themselves and if they feel they are around enough or contribute enough to be considered active, then they will add themselves. The act of finding the list in itself is an indicator of activity, and we know people who find and list themselves, do fact, come around here and didn't just put their name on it because they were spammed with a notice. --Naha|(talk) 23:57, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Like I said before, just because a member doesn't post here often, it doesn't mean that they aren't out there improving articles for the project. And either way, this project talk page is EASILY one of the most active on Wikipedia. Perhaps you should instead try a membership reconfirmation? We did one at WP:SIMPSONS a while back (here's the page) and it worked pretty well. -- Scorpion0422 00:54, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
- It's the same thing. Read that page's objective goal: The objective is to regularly do a cleanup of the members list to distinguish the real active members from those which don't contribute at all. No difference in what we're doing here. Feedback ☎ 00:58, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

- That's not the point. We should try to individually stick out as a greatly organized and highly improved WikiProject, and not compare with other projects. However, the point is that if we have a list of 300 members, at least 1/2 (150) should be active. PS. Truco, it's not 50, it's 20-30. Feedback ☎ 01:45, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

- Every project needs to do this at some point, if for no other reason than a more accurate reading of who is active in the project and who isn't. This information occasionally becomes necessary, and to the best of my knowledge this project has never done such a thing. Size of the project is irrelevant; this needs to take place. The process may be imperfect, as Scorpion pointed out, bu it is much better than doing nothing. Currently there are at least 30 indef blocked vandals on the list that it would be incredibly tedious to sort out by hand, in addition to the leftover unannounced retirees. We need to purge the list, and this is the only effective way to do it. Peace, SexySeaBass 08:55, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

- Comment - Policy says citations are needed ONLY if the information is challenged or likely to be challenged. "" All quotations and any material challenged or likely to be challenged should be attributed to a reliable, published source using an inline citation" The information that is getting citations right now will never be challenged, it is common knowledge. Putting citations for developmental talent would abide by the policy. Doppy88 (talk) 19:46, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Comment- Ok but if that is so, why do we have FL's for List of WWE Champions List of WWE Tag Team Champions, List of WWE Intercontinental Champions? Which have every thing sources and cited, same goes for this article, "how would someone, a non wrestling fan, know that Randy Orton was on the RAW brand, or is apart of the WWE roster, that can be "challenged".TrUcO9311 (talk) 19:52, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Comment - Those lists need sources because they are referencing PAST events. Everything on the WWE roster is about the PRESENT. These are facts that can be verified every week by the viewer watching the product. If a non fan views the page there is no likelihood of a challenge because obviously they have no reason to challenge what they are told if they know nothing about it. If you want to put a single citation at the RAW/Smackdown/ECW brand heading going to the respective roster page on WWE then go ahead. And also citations for the injured superstars would ahere to policy as that is also challengeable as to why and if they are indeed injured or simply off air. Doppy88 (talk) 20:02, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

- I'm not rushing you, I'm simply telling you the things that would make for compromisable citations. One at the heading of each of the three rosters, one for each injured superstar and one noting the signing of each developmental talent. And for development talent only if you accept wrestling news sites as sources because as Dahumorist said, those are the ONLY pleaces that list the signings. Doppy88 (talk) 20:17, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Ok then please tell me what this is [1] and this [2]TrUcO9311 (talk) 20:25, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Please read my comment on the other discussion page where I addressed why those cannot be used. Obviously you do not know much about what sources are good and which aren't in terms of the WWE roster, so why should you be making these decisions? Doppy88 (talk) 20:28, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Really you are unexperienced, those sites I showed you are official websites of the developmental territories of WWE. Those are their websites with their listings of superstars, how can it not be used if it is the most official source to cite for developmental territory talent, the company website itself. (that sounds dumb, cant cite the talent from the company website :p)TrUcO9311 (talk) 20:36, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Because like I already said... not all of the superstars listed there are CONTRACTED by the WWE. The WWE does not own those developmental territories therefore the territories let wrestlers on their show who are not contracted by the WWE. Johnny Punch, Justin LaRoche, Serena, Mike Madison, Big Rob just to name a few off the top of my head are not contracted to the WWE yet they appear on those roster pages. Therefore we cannot use those as sources as there is no way to differentiate between who is contracted with the WWE and who is simply wrestling for OVW and FCW. Doppy88 (talk) 20:41, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- I see your point, so then we click on the links of those who are contraced under WWE, and cite those. The ones on Wikipedia were off some dirt sheet website, so then we just look for the link of their profile and then WHAM! its done.TrUcO9311 (talk) 21:02, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Doppy88 (talk) 20:17, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Comment by non project-member. Doppy88, to claim on Wikipedia that a fact is "common knowledge" is a troublesome proposition. Common knowledge to whom? To wrestling fans? Wikipedia is geared toward the general reader, not the specialist. A casual wrestling fan will know that Triple H and The Rock were part of the WWE. Other readers might not. And once we consider more obscure entries on the list, the need for outside verification becomes increasingly important. Also you are twisting the words Verifiability policy; read it carefully. It does not say to include references only when "challenged or likely to be challenged." Where does it say "only?" In fact, it says: "If no reliable, third-party sources can be found for an article topic, Wikipedia should not have an article on it." Readers should be convinced that every entry on the list actually belongs there. We should maintain very high standards.--The Fat Man Who Never Came Back (talk) 19:56, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Comment, I can't believe that "it shouldn't be sourced because it is ugly" has actually been an argument in this debate. Every article on Wikipedia should be sourced. Like I said above, if no sources can be found for the developmental talent, that doesn't stop the rest of the article from being sourced. Perhaps, Doppy doesn't understand that there are editors that go around blanking information that isn't sourced, so sourcing information is in everyone's best interests. Moreover, it's Wikipedia policy for articles to be attributed to sources, as has already been pointed out. Lastly, I should note that edit warring on the article isn't a good idea either. With that said, I won't hesitate to block anyone who breaks the WP:3RR rule. Nikki311 21:03, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- DisapproveBleek25 (talk) 21:54, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Disapprove and Comment i don't think it's needed, at least not on the main roster page, do it for the individual articles by all means (it should already have been done tbh) the main roster page has been done that way for as long as i've been editing on here and worked fine only links needed are for the main roster page to WWE.com's sections for the 3 individual brands and developmental is extremely hard to get WWE source for as they almost NEVER comment on developmental signings and firing, the best place for them is normally wreslingobserver.com or f4wonline.com also have you realised the added workload when they move people to new shows having to check and find the new link (which they don't always update that quickly). So as i said a cite in the header of each section would be more then enough, afterall we don't cite every player profile on a sporting team so why should WWE roster page be any different.Skitzo (talk) 22:15, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
- Comment, You may not think that it is needed, but it is. It is Wikipedia policy to cite sources. That is the end of the discussion. Sources are going in to the article. I can't even believe this is a debate! Nikki311 04:05, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
- I'm sorry but Wikipedia's policy about sources is not that black and white. As it says here: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources#How_to_cite_sources
- "Articles can be supported with references in two ways: the provision of general references—books or other sources that support a significant amount of the material in the article—and inline citations, that is, references within the text, which provide source information for specific statements. Inline citations are needed for statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, including contentious material about living persons, and for all quotations."
- We already have general references in the WWE roster pages for all three brands, the developmental rosters and also the onlineworldofwrestling roster page which lists active, inactive and developmental talent. And once again, inline citations are NOT needed because the statements in this list are NOT challenged or likely to be challenged as the policy states is REQUIRED for inline citations. I believe this is the end of the discussion, I will be reverting the article back to how it was before these unneccessary changes were made and IF there is a majority approving this change, then they can be added back. Wikipedia policy does not require the inline sources being added so please do not use that as an excuse for reverting my edit. Doppy88 (talk) 06:05, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
- It can be challenged. Examples:
- a. If Marty Jannetty, Steve Blackman, Rob Van Dam, Scotty 2 Hotty and other superstars not under legend contract competed on Raw, why aren't they on the list?
- b. Are you sure John Cena is injured? I haven't seen him on TV. How about if they released him? I don't see any reference saying he's still with the company...
- c. Maybe all the wrestlers are competing not under contract...
- Even though, the above is unlikely to be said.. IT IS POSSIBLE! And if anyone disputes any of the above, we can't back it up, because the page WOULD NOT have the sources. With that said, the page should continue having the sources.
- PS. Also, the links "provided" at the bottom of the page explain NOTHING about the "Other Roles" and "Talent Relations" sections. Feedback ☎ 12:48, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

- Frankly, I couldn't care less about Wrestling. At all. That being said, I came upon this due to seeing the edit wars. Unilaterally declaring a willingness to edit war to ensure your personal version sees the light of day is quite against policy. Please don't edit war and please don't threaten to edit war. That is all. :) IrishGuy talk 09:21, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
Comment Nikki there is already a source for the info at the bottom of the page, there isn't any need to cite each and every wrestler on the roster. Skitzo (talk) 09:26, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
- Reply, so based on your and Doppy's theories I should go into every Featured Article and delete all the sourcing because it is ugly and the information is not likely to be challenged by experts on the subjects. I'll just provide a few links at the bottom for other articles for people to go read to verify the information. I'll go get started on that right now. Please note the incredible sarcasm. Nikki311 13:49, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
- Nope, because as the policy states, general references can be used if the sources support a significant amount of the material. Which they obviously do in this case, are you just blind to see that? One single link to the Raw roster of WWE.com supports around 35 superstars. Times that by 5 because there is Raw, Smackdown, ECW, OVW and FCW and that IS a SIGNIFICANT amount. The issue is far from inline citations being ugly, but being UNNECCESARY and making the page look like a joke because it needs citations for the most obvious of facts. You mention Wikipedia policy so much, but YOU are not standing by it.

To Feedback: Like I have said many times before, if you need to provide individual citations for details such as injuries and positions for the other roles section go ahead. But inline citations for EVERY SINGLE superstar as has been done so far is not needed because as policy states, general references are to be used when it supports a significant amount of the information. Wikipedia does not want an article filled with 200 sources if they can be condensed down much easier.Doppy88 (talk) 18:48, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

- I understand your concern about too many refs but listen to me, an FL class article needs possibly everything cited. Mainly because it is a "LIST", so to ensure that the list is accurate everything on that list needs to be cited so it may be proven true. Like say in the WWE roster page, I have sourced all the RAW superstars and all the extra details to the side. That will make the article a FL class article. Do you understand?TrUcO9311 (talk) 19:01, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

- Comment - Just a thought here. The discussion seems to be whether or not to use a few references from the roster page at the top of each section, or to cite each and every name. Well when you cite each and every bio, what are you really citing? For example, Triple H's bio tells me nothing about him being a Raw superstar, except for the URL and the Raw logo. You would have to make it clear that those parts of the page are the proof that he's on the Raw roster. Now, if we were to link to the Raw roster, we now see a list of superstars. The purpose of this page is to show the superstars of the roster, and the brand's champions. Seems to me that the later would be a more accurate reference.

Okay I do not approve of the Major Brothers being named as the Edge-heads, they are best known as the Major Brothers and the article should remain being named like that. This article should remain like the Dudley Boyz even though they are billed as Team 3D, and the New Age Outlaws as the V.K.M.

- Being full time wrestlers in the biggest wrestling organization in the world makes them automatically notable IMO (the same way that any pro athlete in the NFL, NBA, NHL, etc. are considered automatically notable even if they only played in 1 game). Maybe we should make a proposal and submit it to make it official. TJ Spyke 23:09, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

WWE No Way Out PROTECTED!
Yes, we've done it again. WWE No Way Out has been protected until January. The dispute is over whether or not to include the elimination chamber match right now, as there are now reliable sources stating that the match will occur. The opposition seems to be that it must be announced during the in-universe WWE storylines before it can be mentioned. One person also suggested that it shouldn't be mentioned because "plans might change". LOL! Mshake3 (talk) 17:35, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
- Thats good but an admin should go remove those references of the elimination chamber in the 2008 space and in the see also section.--TrUcO9311 T / GB 17:38, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

- I think its pretty clear that if it was a dirtsheet (eg PWMania; Wrestling-Edge), then it would be removed. But its a reliable source, therefore no matter what previous consensus is, we insert it into the article. Previous concensus is irrelevant when there is a reliable source available, and in this case there is. Davnel03 17:56, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Two things, first of all the "fact" that WWE.com is the only reliable source is incorrect and claiming it is simply trying to overturn the previous spoilers debate by pushing the opinion that "dirt sheets" are always unreliable. The articles can simply state "the Wrestling Observer and the Pro Wrestling Insider have reported X is going to occur but WWE have not confirmed this as such." This is common across articles on all of wikipedia. The "don't post matches until WWE.com states them" is outdated and predates the RFC on spoilers that was overturned by the RFC.

- Feedback your statement is incorrect and has absolutely no backing. The RFC was not to asser whether WWE was the only reliable source, it was if spoilers of any nature are allowed and they are. In fact reports from reliable sources are allowed in the format of "several wrestling news sites have reported X" or "the websites for InDemand has listed this event as scheduled to include an Elimination Chamber." WWE.com is not the be all, and end all, of spoilers and arguing that any other site is not reliable is something that the RFC proved was incorrect and claiming otherwise is against consensus and policy. –– Lid(Talk) 08:16, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

Briscoe Brothers Needs some work
It repeatedly says "they were booked to defeat/get beaten by wrestler1 and wrestler2". This gives me the impression that one of them got injured and couldn't attend the match or something.

- As the editor that took the Mickie James article out of universe, I try not to overuse the term "booked". I reserve it only for title wins or other important victories. Other terms like "scheduled" or "scripted" actually work better than using "booked" because they aren't wrestling jargon. Just be creative. Use a thesaurus if it helps. - Deep Shadow 03:36, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
Also, put the sections in order. For example, the PWU section says they started wrestling there in 2005, but the part about them leaving wrestling in 2004 comes after. Also, they started wrestling in ROH in 2002, but the PWG (which was founded in late 2003) section is before it. Same with NOAH coming before FIP. Nenog (talk) 22:35, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Category:{{Year}} in professional wrestling
I've been doing a lot of category sorting to do with the PPV expansion, as some PPVs have been put mistakenly in wrong categories. I've tried to standardise it. Anway, while doing this, I came across the following categories:
- Category:1999 in professional wrestling
- Category:2000 in professional wrestling
- Category:2001 in professional wrestling
- Category:2002 in professional wrestling
- Category:2003 in professional wrestling
- Category:2004 in professional wrestling
- Category:2005 in professional wrestling
- Category:2006 in professional wrestling
- Category:2007 in professional wrestling
- Category:2008 in professional wrestling
Are the categories really needed? Do we really need them? I was going to go ahead and CFD them, but wanted other opinions to do with these categories. Davnel03 13:19, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
- I'm thinking no. That seems to be a case of over categorization to me. Nikki311 18:44, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
- Yes they are. We used to put them in the general sports category (i.e. 1999 in sports), but decided to create one for wrestling. It's like how there is Category:2007 in baseball. It's to tie stuff together that happened in the same year (so the Fingerpoke of Doom is in the 1999 category, the Montreal Screwjob is in 1997, etc.). It was one of the better ideas IMO. TJ Spyke 22:40, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
- If they have a purpose, then it doesn't matter to me. I looked in most of them, and they had only a couple of pay-per-views, which seemed un-necessary. I guess they'll fill up as the PPVs are expanded. Nikki311 17:30, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
- I just created the 1998 one. So anybody creating an event that involves wrestling from 1998-2008, make sure to add the right category (make sure it's year specific though, don't be adding a year specifica category to something covering multiple years like WWE Backlash).

Is this statement weasely?
- From our FA, December to Dismember (2006) (aftermath part) :
Many fans had a negative reaction to the pay-per-view,[1][2][3] with SLAM! Sports rating the pay-per-view.....
- ^ Anderson, Ken (2006-12-05). "ECW December to Dismember - REVIEWED". The Wrestling Blog. Retrieved 2007-10-14.
I would stop short of calling it the worst pay-per-view of all time, but it's certainly among the worst. ECW as a brand is dead, and the WWE should definitely take notice that a sizable portion of their ECW fanbase is chanting "TNA" during a WWE PPV.

Is that statement in bold, weasely? I personally think it isn't really, but Feedback thinks it is. The references are included, therefore I think the statement does not violate WP:WEASEL. Does anyone else think the statement is weasely, even with the references included? Davnel03 14:49, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
References to do not turn a weasel word into a concrete quantity. I read Wikipedia:Avoid weasel words thoroughly to see if there was any exemption, and there is not. However, in the bottom paragraph of Wikipedia:Avoid weasel words#Improving weasel-worded statements, it says that instead of writing:
- "Some people think that the Yankees are the greatest baseball team in history."
...it should be written:
- "The New York Yankees have won 26 World Series championships—about three times as many as any other team."
The later suggests that the Yankees are a superlative baseball franchise, rather than simply the greatest baseball team in history. The idea is to let the readers draw their own conclusions about the Yankees' greatness based on the number of World Series the Yankees have won. Objectivity over subjectivity. Dispassion, not bias.
To apply this to your article:
- Many fans had a negative reaction to the pay-per-view with SLAM! Sports rating the pay-per-view 4 out of 10 stars, stating "the two matches that were promoted saved this thing from being a debacle."
Instead, you can find other ratings of the payperview and it can say:
- Slam! Sports gave the pay-per-view 4 out of 10 stars, stating "the two matches that were promoted saved this thing from being a debacle; X and Y also had very negative statements to say about the event, stating ______________.

Many fans had a negative reaction to the pay-per-view[weasel words],[46][47][48] with SLAM! Sports rating the pay-per-view 4 out of 10 stars, stating "the two matches that were promoted saved this thing from being a debacle."[1]

- I think that a compromise to this would be changing the word "Many" to "Some" to read Some fans had a negative reaction to the pay-per-view, with SLAM! Sports rating it.... The references do cite the fact that some fans were not thrilled by the pay-per-view and showed their opinions by chanting negative comments during the match, but it doesn't say that many or most did. With this change, the sentence is cited, so it isn't weaselly. Hope that helps. Nikki311 18:50, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Taking a break
I have decided that I need a break from this page. A couple of project members are driving me crazy, and I will enjoy editing Wikipedia more if I put some distance between us. I find it sad that anyone would think that adding a rigid bureaucracy and attempting to control the administrative side of the project is the way to go. Aside from an ego trip, I see no need for pruning COTW articles early, archiving active discussions, making a big deal about which bot will archive discussions, calling for reassessment of all Featured Articles, needlessly criticizing well-sourced statements in Featured Articles, arguing with GA reviewers, and telling me that I'm not a good member unless I put my name on a pointless list. I'll continue to edit articles, but, for the next while, I'll stick to talk pages for contacting people. Please contact me on my talk page if you have any questions or concerns.

The notes section can include things such as the matches used to win picks, any trades that occured right after the draft, releases prior to redebuting, etc. Mshake3 (talk) 03:20, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
- Explain to me what should go under each of those sections of the table?TrUcO9311 TaLk / SiGn 03:37, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
- Seriously? Sigh....... Using The Great Khali as an example.... Overall Pick: The number of the pick for the evening (1). Brand: the brand that received the wrestler (Smackdown). Wrestler: The wrestler (Great Khali). Leaving Brand: the brand that lost the wrestler (Raw). Notes: other information (Edge defeated John Cena to win the draft pick from Smackdown.)
I've finished expanded the article. All three sections need a bit of improvement, and copy-edit. I've done what I can with the sources I have. Cheers, Davnel03Sign It, Junior! 21:58, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Shannon Moore
I've been adding references and so on to the Shannon Moore article, and I'm looking for suggestions, help, etc, on how to improve it further. All help greatly appreciated. NiciVampireHeart (talk) 00:22, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
I'll help. I'll do some copy editing for you. I think my #1 suggestion, though, is to cut down the extremely long signature moves section. That thing is ridiculous. Also, I'm pretty sure Crash Holly wasn't his manager so much as his lackey. I'll remove that. Nikki311 00:31, 24 December 2007 (UTC)

I've been working on Sika Anoa'i's article, and I managed to find sources for almost everything. There is one title win, however, that has me confused. On June 1, 1973, The Samoans won the NWA Florida Tag Team Championship. Accoring to one source, this was Afa and Sika. According to a different source, however, this was Tio Tio and Reno Tufuuli. Does anyone know how to find out for sure? Should this be listed if the sources aren't clear? I've taken it off of Sika's article for now, but it's still in Afa's article as a sourced statement.

WWE Wreckless Intent needs to be watched

Help needed with WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2008
There is currently a disagreement on how the roster should be setup: a prose, or the general list (which has always been on wrestling game articles, but there is no set rule that they must remain that way). The discussion is on the talk page. RobJ1981 (talk) 19:05, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- The only "disagreement" I see is that you (and only YOU) feel the roster should be in "paragraph" form, versus "list" form, as WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2007 is currently set up. Just because there is "no set rule" doesn't give you free license to set the page up any way you like.
I do not feel you are making warranted edit to how you think the roster list should look, and you only made a posting on this page to try and get people to agree with your side of things. Why aren't you making the same revision(s) to the 2007 page?
ArcAngel (talk) 20:17, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
While there is no set rule for lists, it doesn't mean paragraphs need to be put in either. You know, A table wouldn't be bad. A list would still be awesome. But a paragraph? That's just crap right there. Wikipedia is supposed to be easy to read. Not jumbled up, and making you forget in 3 seconds.

Wrestlemania III DVD release
I don't think that the DVD release is notable. Every single WWE PPV has been released on DVD, and none of the PPV articles include anything about DVD releases. The fact is that sporting events are produced mainly for the live audience, and are taped additionally for people who couldn't be there. Obviously, because of this fact, the DVD releases of many live events of every other sports are not covered in their articles. Just take the Super Bowl for example. Anyway, I would like to know your thoughts on the issue. Cheers, Feedback ☎ 23:47, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- Are you talking about a seperate article for it? Then I agree. The only mention of the DVD release I know of is on WrestleMania, in the section about VHS and DVD releases of the the different events. Also, it is not true that every WWE PPV has been released on DVD (while, actually they have. But not every WWF PPV has been released on DVD). TJ Spyke 23:50, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- In my GA review of the article, I said that it might be worth mentioning that it was released on its own on DVD. It's really not the kind of thing I'd fail the page over. -- Scorpion0422 02:27, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
Project vote stacking
I nicely asked the members of this project not to vote in each other's FLCs because it looks like vote stacking, and there you go again. An FLC that passes thanks only to project support isn't much of an accomplishment, is it? And don't give me that "nobody else wants to vote in professional wrestling related things" garbage, because eventually, there will always be enough votes for a pass or fail. I've been closing FLCs for six months and I've never had to fail one heading for promotion due to a lack of votes. What really makes me think that nobody really looked at it is the fact that it's not really a well formatted table - there's needless colour in the header, there's too much whitespace and there are citations in the header. -- Scorpion0422 02:59, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

- I never said it should be withdrawn - the FLC should be allowed to run its couse - I just dislike it when project members support eachothers work. I can always tell when that happens, and it's not a good thing because then the FLC regulars will see that an article already has enough support and won't look at it, then an article doesn't have a chance to become as good as it can be. Like I've told this project many times, the FL (and FA) process is not meant to be a series of revolving doors where articles are herded through as fast as possible, it's meant to make an article perfect, and having project members support things takes away from that. -- Scorpion0422 03:05, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- Well then if youre so against that then message other ppl not from this project and tell them to join the discussion. Let them put "NOT SUPPORT", then mayby you will quiet down =)

- First of all, you didn't ask us not to vote on nominations. You asked us not to vote on nominations without giving a reason. I gave a reason. In fact, I withheld my vote at first because I thought there was a problem with the list. Second, I appreciate the work you do on Wikipedia, but I'm not sure why you would have the authority to decide who is allowed to vote on Featured Articles/Lists. If there are a couple of problems you see with the list, you are welcome to fix them. If you want the color removed, you can do that (or I can do that). If you want the citations moved, let's move them. Would moving citations 9 and 17 to right after "Televised Draft" be better? As for white space, I don't see that being a problem.
- As for notability, you arguments seem flawed. This is definitely notable, as it changed the entire face of the world's largest wrstling promotion. Lack of coverage by the media seems like a bizarre requirement. To the best of my knowledge, the New York Times hasn't covered any of the changes found in the CZW World Heavyweight Championship article, either. I've never heard of that being a requirement, though. Finally, this draft was much larger than previous drafts and there is enough information to warrant a separate article. Do you honestly believe that this draft is comparable to the 2006 draft? GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:19, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, I have said several times that people shouldn't vote in project FLCs, because then people can just say "it only passed because of project support" and I've actually seen that statement used in FARs. It's not notable enough for its own page. It's basically cruft and goes into detail on a one night event that has to do with a scripted TV show. The WWE Draft Lottery page isn't that long, and the 2007 WWE Draft doesn't really justify why it needs its own page. I may be crazy, but I don't page about a barely notable one-night event an example of Wikipedia's "very best work". -- Scorpion0422 05:33, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- I agree with Scorpion, I tend to avoid voting in any project featured candidates (I didn't even vote in the nomination of CM Punk having been the person who spent the most time working on the article as I felt it would be biased). Featured content requires readers who are neutral and from a broad spectrum, if the article is of quality and supported by the requirements of featured material then it will pass without interference. –– Lid(Talk) 08:17, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

- Excuse me? Every other projects vote in FACs and FLCs, so why can't we? D.M.N. (talk) 10:37, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- Because the other projects shouldn't be voting in their FXCs either. I agree with Lid, members of the project are hardly neutral judges. The only people who should be judging the quality of it are those with no ties to it. Commenting is fine, but actual voting isn't, IMHO. Also, as Scorpion pointed out, it is far too easy to strip an article of its status when it (appears to have) passed as a result of project support. For the record, I also abstain from project FXCs even though the default mode for me is to vote on anything involving the project. Peace, SexySeaBass 12:32, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

- Iight fine then, lets let this article sit out it's nomination for the next week and let it stay with its 2 supports (since we need 4 by 10 days). I doubt any random person would vote. Case closed!TrUcO9311 TaLk / SiGn 16:14, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, it has three supports, and you asked all three to go there and vote: [4] [5] [6]. Please do not do that again in the future, because finding people who would vote support pretty easily defeats the purpose of having Featured Content. -- Scorpion0422 16:19, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- I resent that. Asking me to look at an article in no way guarantees a support vote. I was planning not to vote at all because I have no interest in wrestling from the past decade. I was interested in seeing what sort of article had been nominated, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that it fit all of the Featured List criteria. I saw that it needed some copyediting, so I did that and requested rewording of a confusing statement. Had I just gone and voted support without looking at the article closely, I would have been out of line. But I have not, do not, and will not support anything simply because it is a wrestling article. GaryColemanFan (talk) 17:29, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

- Furthermore, if you check your previous statement, you simply said that people should not vote without giving their reasons for supporting or opposing. I voted and gave my reasons. You seem to think this is a completely different situation simply because you do not like the article. You came here with one complaint, jumped to another when your first was address, jumped to yet another when that was addressed, and now you're back to the beginning. So, what is it? Is it not notable? Is it poorly formatted? Is it that it needs to be mergerd? Is it that people from the project are voting on it? If so,
- It made major changes to the rosters of all three brands. Lack of mainstream media coverage is a ridiculous argument, as few of our 3240 articles regularly receive mainstream media coverage.
- I have no problem with the formatting, but it can be changed quite easily.
- I think, due to the complicated rules and the large nature of this draft, that it stands out from the rest. Adding it after the 2006 draft (2 picks) would look stupid.
- If the real problem is that people from WP:PW, like people form every other project, vote on their Featured Articles/Lists, take the matter up with Wikipedia as a whole and try to get the rule changed. We have done nothing wrong, and your accusations are out of line.
- If there was any consensus (a word you're tossing around without pointing to where the consensus was reached [for a Simpsons reference to parallel your own, this is like saying something is from the Bible and simply stating, "Near the back" when someone asks you where you found it]) reached, it was that project members should not review WP:PW GA candidates. Strangely enough, the only person I see going against that consensus is you. In fact, you are about to pass an article despite the fact that only one of your four concerns has been addressed. Aren't you concerned about how the perceptions of conflict of interest will make the project look? GaryColemanFan (talk) 19:36, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, I don't think that any of my concerns have really been addressed. Even if it did make "major" changes to all three brands, it still goes into detail about a one-night thing about a TV show and it's no more notable than, say a "List of characters who have been killed off in the fifth season of 24" as in that case, it also involves major changes to a prominent TV show. The first draft is the only one that might be notable enough for its own page. As for WrestleMania III, I am reviewing the article because of the large backlog in the sports section, and it had been there for well over a month and I feel that my concerns about have been somewhat addressed/corrected. There is a difference betwen the GA and FA/L process because featured content is supposed to be the absolute best Wikipedia has to offer, so if an article is passed, it should be because of support from impartial reviewers, not members of a WikiProject that the article belongs to. -- Scorpion0422 19:51, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- I was referring to your concerns in the GA review. Despite your position as an objective and impartial GA reviewer, you are about to pass an article even though your concerns have not been addressed. And if your intention is simply to cut down on the GA review backlog, there were plenty of non-wrestling articles to review. Why didn't you choose one of them?
- As for the topic at hand, you can't even remember which point you're arguing at this point, so I see no point in continuing this discussion. GaryColemanFan (talk) 20:42, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Jeff Hardy
Anybody want to help with this page? Somebody kept adding unsourced info, and now keep trying to add different MySpace pages (first one that they claimed was Jeff's despite the fact that Matt has said on his official page that Jeff doesn't have one). Now they keep adding the MySpace page of something called "Itchweed" that Matt says Jeff is involved with. I don't think any should be listed since Jeff doesn't have a MySpace page, and the MySpace page of the Hardy Show can go on the Hardy Boyz page (if it isn't already there). TJ Spyke 04:05, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

- WP:EL says links to sites like MySpace should be avoided unless they are the subject of the MySpace page. The Hardy Show is really about the Hardys together, so is fine for their tag team article but shouldn't be mentioned in their individual articles. "Itchweed" (the only things online I can find about this are things like MySpace) is the same. The only MySpace page that would be acceptable in Jeff's article would be his MySpace page if he had one. TJ Spyke 04:29, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

- Because the article is about contracted talent, the show in which they appear isn't really relevant. It's not like if each show has different contracts, etc. I believe that the wrestlers should be grouped together, and the brand which they appear in can be specified next to the name, as I did. However, it's the wiki-community's right to decide... so decide away :D Feedback ☎ 01:00, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Concern with a couple of FLs (not vote-stacking)
Two recently-promoted featured lists, IWGP World Tag Team Championship and AJPW Triple Crown Championship, have gone against typical WP:PW policy by using large print in the notes section and (less importantly) making the table sortable. I don't think either of these is necessary, and frankly I think they make it look ugly. They were changed because of a concern from the voters during the nomination, and I certainly can't blame the nominator for implementing their wishes, but I'd just like to see what general consensus is in the project itself. --MarcK 23:36, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- I do all of my editing from my laptop these days, and it shows the small font just fine. When I check a page from my home computer, though, I have a very hard time reading notes written in small font. GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:34, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
- The small/large font thing really isn't that big of an issue with me, but maybe that's because I, too, am on a lap-top...so it looks fine either way to me. The sort-table thing, though, seems pretty un-necessary in most of the columns. I mean, the lists are already sorted by date, and who really cares about sorting by location? The only column I can see that might benefit from being sortable is the "times" section (which would also sort the winners, if I'm not mistaken), so you can see each one of a multiple-winner's reigns.

- iMatthew is correct. Just winning the tag titles doesn't make them notable enough to have a tag team article (see Kane and The Big Show, Batista and Rey Mysterio, Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio, Edge and Rey Mysterio, etc.). They've wrestled together only 1 time, not even close to being notable yet. This looks like just another random tag team that WWE creates when they have nothing else for 2 mid-carders to do (like when they put Carlito and Masters together).

Clarification about References/ Update our Guidelines
When adding references to articles, is the name of the website supposed to be listed as the Work or Publisher? For example, with a match result from the Wrestling Information Archive, would Wrestling Information Archive be listed as the Work or Publisher? I've always listed it as the Work, but many people list it as publisher. Does it matter either way, or should be just be consistent in each article, regardless of which is used. Listing it as the Work puts it in italics, but listing it as the Publisher doesn't, so I've noticed that a few articles have a mix of the two. GaryColemanFan (talk) 07:00, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
- Website is the publisher. If it's something like a column, that is the work. For example, one of the sources we use for WWE PPVs is called Oold Tyme 'Rasslin Revue. It's a column on the website onlineonslaught.com. So OTRR would be the work and OO would be the publisher. Template:Cite web has the details. TJ Spyke 07:05, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
- I looked over the explanation on the template page, and it seems to say that the website would be called the Work. If the site is published by an institution such as a government or university, that would be listed as the Publisher. I don't really have a problem with it either way, as long as it's consistent throughout each article (ie. no one article mixes the two). GaryColemanFan (talk) 18:22, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

- I do 2, but Colin said it is owned by some guy who just puts stuff down in the site, although to me it's reliable.

Hulk Hogan/AWA World Title
Does anyone else have an opinion on listing the AWA World Title in Hulk Hogan's list of titles? I know we sometimes list "unofficial" title reigns (usually WWE going back and striking out title changes they want to ignore, like when the WCW Championship was held up after Flair and Steamboat double pinned each other at Spring Stampede 1994). However, the original AWA never recognized Hogan's title wins and neither does the WWE (which legally owns the rights to the AWA). The only ones who recognized the title wins are "AWA Superstars of Wrestling", a indy wrestling organization that does not legally have any say over the AWA or its history (WWE purchased all rights to the AWA from its legal owner Verne Gagne). So this is not a case of an organization deciding to alter history since Hogan was never recognized as AWA Champion. TJ Spyke 22:11, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
- Well with the facts you presented I say dont' list it, if only a rip-off promotion can list it and a major promotion that has ties w/ the original AWA. TrUcO9311 TaLk / SiGn 22:16, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
