I have just found out that a lot of Online World of Wrestling's content is fan contributed. Apparently a lot of the statistics about independant promotions and wrestlers and other participants rely totally on contributions. They don't even bother checking it. This could well place OWOW's reliability as a source under a cloud. Thoughts? !! Justa Punk !! 11:48, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

What do you want out of this, GCF? A solution or a flame war? !! Justa Punk !! 04:56, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi there. Could some guys from this project kindly lend their opinions at the inclusion of the section hidden in the drop down tab? User:Screwball23 is advocating its inclusion however User:Justa Punk states it has previously been discussed and discarded here somewhere. Cheers, S.G.(GH) ping! 12:32, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
Ive tried to edit the Bryan Danielson/Daniel Byran section on his release from WWE, with a link to the elite side of the site, to be told that they aren't consider as a reliable source. And that I would need to start a new section here, on why I believe they are.
They work with many contemporary's such as Les Thatcher and Mike 'Simon Dean' Bucchi. They have broken numerous storys, including I believe, talking to Dixie Carter about Slamiversary's surprise. Consider to be as informed as other dirtsheets and websites like the Torch or Wrestling Observer. Have been in the business a long time, all starting in the original ECW. Have many contacts with-in many wrestling companys. Many interview's with people in business.

Not that is a big deal or anything, but I am a fan of consistency. Every archive page has "50" discussions archived in them (which is the norm), but archive #43 has 49. Should we move one discussion up to the older archive and so on until we reach "50" each or should we just leave it as it is? Feedback ( talk) 20:49, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
Thinking about it, there seems to be too many archive pages. What if we increase the number from 50 to 100? That would slice the number of archive pages in half. What do you think? Feed back (talk) 19:12, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

On the Santino Marella page should we continue to observe him as Miss WrestleMania (as it say 2 times, current) since "Santina" was kayfabe fired and then the sash was never mentioned again so I assume it was abandoned.

Hello, my name is Hixteilchen.
I wanted to make a discussion about the Florida Championship Wrestling article. The majority of FCW fans and wiki users wants to take all wrestlers and Divas who are listed on the FCW talent page ( http://www.fcwwrestling.info/talent.html ). But there is one user 187.15.90.220 who doesn't use a wiki account and always excludes the wrestlers and Divas who appear on SmackDown, Raw and NXT. He calls it "Visual polution". I wanna make sure that all FCW wrestlers and Divas are listed on the page cause they also compete in FCW and have a developmental contract with FCW (even Serena, the Usos and the NXT season 1 Rookies). -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 15:39, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
"I doubt anyone is going to agree that it is vandalism. The IP has a clear reason why they think it doesn't belong,(...)it is clearly not vandalism but good faith attempts". Thank you a lot, Syrthiss. I help to improve this article since January 2009. Unfortunately, at my work the "login/registrate" link is blocked, and because of this I cannot use a nickname here. About the discussion, I had the very same one with another user (Yugiohmike) and we agreed and came to consensus to use the version without the wrestlers that do not have a developmental contract with FCW anymore (the wrestlers now on Raw, Smackdown and NXT rosters). To Hixteilchen: the "visual pollution" is about the excessive notes and references that are extremelly unnecessary since all of then are on the link posted by Nikki. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.15.90.220 ( talk) 16:39, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
"All FCW wrestlers and Divas belong to the list. Don't exclude any wrestlers.!". But the FCW wrestlers were not excluded. The ones excluded are Raw, Smackdown and NXT wrestlers. They do not belong to the FCW Roster anymore.
I honestly do not see the fuss here, they clearly are members of the FCW roster, if they were like Christian and The Miz who go down for special appearances I would agree for the removal from the roster page although I doubt they'd be placed there in the first place, but since they regularly actively compete in the shows I see no reason for removal. Afro ( DontTazeMeBro) - Afkatk 23:36, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
Yes they are contracted, but no more a developmental contract. And we are not talking about NXT wrestlers, but Raw and Smackdown too.
The funny fact is that since January 2009 I was helping to improve that article and none of you went there to say something about the section in discussion here. And now this user (Hixteilchen) just went there few days ago to call the way I manage the article vandalism. Sorry, but I never met a vandal that helps for one year and a half. I earned a Half-Barnstar for this very same section. Where were you all this time? And now I am just a vandal and the section that gives me more pleasure to work in is just a copy-and-paste of List of World Wrestling Entertainment employees with a lot of visual pollution. IMHO, to do a copy-and-paste of another article it is not the same thing of improve the article. It is preferable to put a link to the FCW section of the other article than to just copy-and-paste all the information from there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.15.53.71 ( talk) 02:08, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
Sorry for the grammar, I was sleepy. And I am not acting like you said. I was talking just about the scope of the section. "Hix" is doing just a copy-and-paste of another article. If C&P is the right thing to do, just put a link in the article. And it is not polite to say that the opinion of someone that just want to help is irrelevant.
I am not acting like the article is mine. And if I am the only one who wants to remove wrestlers no more in development, why the section was the same for one year and a half? Clearly, I am not the only one who have edited the article all this time. The Half-Barnstar that I earned for this very same section proves it.
It legitimizes nothing, but proves that a consensus was previuosly reached. And if I am not wrong, we are talking about consensus here.
"The Half Barnstar is awarded for excellence in Cooperation, especially for productive editing together with someone who holds diametrically opposed viewpoints.". Sorry, but to cooperate with someone who holds diametrically opposed viewpoints, a consensus needs to be reached. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.15.53.71 ( talk) 13:41, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
Dude, You act like every article you discuss you must get your way or you will die, also, as I see it people who compete on Raw, Smackdown, or NXT don't need to be repeated on another list of people in the same company. Hypothetically, say that John Cena made a guest appearance on FCW and fought a match would he have to be on FCW Roster since he fought?-- Curtis23's Us al ions 03:49, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
Can people not infer anymore? If you want to hear me I'd say that if you fight in the main roster and also fight in FCW you should not be stated on the FCW page just because they fight in the main roster which means they fight a more important role or you could say they are also technically a main roster person just developing more skills in FCW regularly so no I don't think they should be on the FCW page just on the WWE Employees page. Are you happy with that Feedback?-- Curtis23's Us al ions 02:39, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Consensus is clear. 5 editors agree on something while only 1 disagrees. Curtis had a misunderstanding, but that has already been addressed and Curtis agrees with the consensus made clear by everyone else. The IP who started the problem in the first place is the only one who disagrees. There is a consensus, and 1 person disagreeing won't damage it. As for your questions, (1) this isn't a WP:RS problem, (2) This isn't a WP:IMPROVE problem and (3) this isn't a WP:FORK problem. This is just 2 disagreeing good faith views on a situation where WP:CONSENSUS needs to take place. Considering the agreeing statements by MPJ-DK, Afro, Hix, Curtis and I, consensus is clear. Feed back (talk) 17:17, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Just because I agree with this after Feedback persuaded me to his side you rant to me saying "And thank again, Curtis". I have a right to have my own views, tough if you think differently,187.15.111.179. PS Sign your comments.-- Curtis23's Us al ions 21:52, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Hey, Curtis, are you crazy? Easy there, boy. I did not rant. I really thanked you for understanding my point of view. And to Feedback: "they are talent". Of course they are. No one here are saying that they are not. But the "talents" are the actual roster and the alumni. If you watch the TV show you will notice the commentators saying that they are from Raw, SmackDown or NXT. And you did not comment about the year Curt Hawkins competed regularly just there and were not on the "talent page" (the same with Shad now).
I have unprotected the article, Feedback addressed my concerns. I ask that 187.X please abide by the consensus and not revert the article to their preferred version. Thanks everyone for the discussion. Syrthiss ( talk) 11:30, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi. I have seen that we have incremented the number of C&A. It's good, but I thini that a lot of the C&A are very irrelevant. Por example, we put that Yosi Tatsu is teh Pre WrestleMania 2010 Battle Royal winner, but it's only a normal Battle Royal before WM, Tatsu never won a championship or similar. Also, in his WWE profile, I don't see the battle royal as a C&A. WWE.com sais that tatsu don't win any C&A. Also, the runner-up. I think that the runner up is an accomplishments. We say that X Pac is the Runner up of the HOTR, but be a Runner up isn't a accomplishments, win the KOTR is a accomplishments. In that case, we can say that Randy Orton is the Runner-Up of the 2006 Royal Rumble because he was eliminated by Mysterio. -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 18:49, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

I was wondering what people thought would be necessary to make this into a Good Topic. Obviously, the main article would need to get up to GA standards. The Mega Bucks and Money Inc. are already GAs. I suppose Million Dollar Championship would need to be a GA (it's too short to be a Featured List). He was also in the Million Dollar Corporation and New World Order (professional wrestling), so I assume those would be necessary as well. Would those six be sufficient, or can anyone think of something else that would be required? GaryColemanFan ( talk) 05:44, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

Alert to members involved in protecting the WWE article from Screwball23. He's canvassing again and I've told one of the receivers (who I think may be an admin) to watch out. His latest "line by line rebuttal" section is the last straw as far as I'm concerned and this disruption has gone on for long enough and is showing no signs of stopping in my opinion. I'd like to put to a vote that we - as a group - take some action against him through ArbCom or something close to it. He just isn't listening as most of us know and I really believe that a long term block is the only way to send the message that he is doing the wrong thing. What say we all? !! Justa Punk !! 06:59, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
Again, I wanted a fair discussion of the topic, and I feel that this was never given reasonable consideration. I have seen refusals to even consider my side before I even started. I would like to remind this group that my edits were mercilessly reverted as soon as they were put forward, each time for a different reason, and the defenses I've encountered have often been personally and emotionally directed.
I presented the material line-by-line to make it very clear that this is verifiable and to encourage a fair evaluation of the additions I have proposed. My main goal was to have it available for reading, because I am a firm supporter of putting the truth and using open minded discussion. I still would like to bring this to mediation so that a fair discussion can happen. -- Screwball23 talk 04:52, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Just a query (and an advance warning for any potential movement) about the World Heavyweight Championship (WWE) article. With Rey Mysterio now champion, WWE are now referring it to simply as the World Championship again just like Rey's last reign in 2006. Clearly, it's a temporary name change for as long as Mysterio is champion so there's no need for an article move. However, I'm just wondering considering it's now the second time this has happened if it's notable enough for a mention and if so which section in the article should this be included? -- Θaks ter 23:04, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

I need help. A reference from You Tube that proves that Eve Torres is billed from Denver, Colorado, and not Los Angeles is being thrown out for reasons that I severely question, given that previously You Tube videos have been used in similar ways in the past to prove that written sources are not correct. Another video reference is needed, because Eve is definitely billed as being from Denver on Raw and on pay per views. The copyright rule is holding up true and verifiable information, and I'm tempted to apply WP:IAR except that I've been threatened with a ban for using this reference.

Hello! I wanted to make a discussion about the German wrestling site Genickbruch.com ( http://www.genickbruch.com ). In my opinion it is a very good wrestling site with lots of information and data about professional wrestlers. They do have many biographys and they always have the correct real names of the wrestlers.
Here is the reason why I want Genickbruch.com as a reliable source. The articles Melina Perez and Taryn Terrell don't have the correct real names. Melina's correct name is "Melina Nava Pérez" => http://www.genickbruch.com/index.php?befehl=bios&wrestler=865 and Tiffany's real name is Taryn Nicole Terrell-Galloway => http://www.genickbruch.com/index.php?befehl=bios&wrestler=8359 . That are just 2 examples. Unfortunately, at the moment my changes are not accepted cause they don't think Genickbruch.com is a reliable source.
But the German wrestling site always has the correct names. if you are searching the correct names it's better than http://www.gerweck.net and http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com that are already accepted as reliable sources. But these 2 sites don't have always the correct names. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 18:40, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
They check back all names. They have very good authors who know what they do. I have checked many names and they are always right. It is really the No. 1 source for real names of wrestlers. In the article Taryn Terrell there is Onlineworldofwretling.com as the reliable source for her name. But that's not her correct name. Her correct name is Taryn Nicole Terrell-Galloway. Genickbruch.com is one of the few sites on the internet that has her correct real name. And Melina Nava Pérez is Melina's real name (even the current source says it). So I say: yes, they have a real good fact checking system. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 21:25, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
Hix, The whole thing is written in German how would you know how it checks it's facts?-- Curtis23's Us al ions 01:40, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
I am German. I don't know what you mean with "proven fact checking system", I just know that they have always the correct names not like other "reliable sources". They have a team that is very into wrestling and many assistants from Germany and other countries. Check out different wrestlers on http://www.genickbruch.com and you'll see that they have the right real names of them. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 02:27, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
I have send an e-mail to the Genickbruch.com team with the question where they get the correct names from and I got this answer:
"I think I can help you if you write me what especially you are interested in. Depending on whether Mexican, English German wrestlers, Indy workers or American wrestlers that competed 70 years ago the answer differs / is always different. I will agitate this extensively but to talk about this would last too long. :-D"
So I gotta write another email and ask how they do research in detail. They have many experts (for Mexican wrestlers, WWE, UFC and so on). I bet they sure use Wikipedia, too. I mean 99% of the real names of wrestlers are correct in wiki. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 19:41, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
I just checked the internet. I used Google, Wikipedia and many American wrestling sites that have the real names. Genickbruch.com always had the right names. The last days I had no time for internet / wikipedia cause I gotta work. I will send an email to the Genickbruch team and ask them how they do research. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 01:02, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
Hello, I just got an answer from the Genickbruch.com-Team
The guy writes that he is responsible for the older wrestlers and he uses the "Social Security Death Index", he uses obits => Obituary, Books, Newspaper Biographys, Forums and other sources. He writes he hat a good review over the sources what makes him know which sources are reliable and which not. He writes their primary sources are family members. The team also knows how to deal with wrong information they get.
Other employees of Genickbruch.com also use the Social Media, Homepages of the Wrestling promotions and many other sources. So they check many sources and they not always but in the most cases have the right names.
I wanna ask you what are the demands / claims for wikipedia to Genickbruch.com as a reliable source. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 21:09, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Again - it's not original research because you' say it is. Adding numbers together is not research. And If you would please stop with this "Oh the WWE this, the WWE that". They do not set the standard for wrestling articles on Wikipedia. If the lenth of a title reign is not "notable" then why do they list the dates they changed hands?

Hi. My quuestion is about the Triple Crownand the Grand Slam. My question is, when WWE completely ignored a period with the company. For example, Nik Nemeth. Imagine that he wins the WWE Championshop and the IC. Will he be a Triple Crown? I said this because WWE doesn't say that the won the WOrld Tag Team championship as part of Spirit Squad.

This is what came out of the Elimination Chamber being nominated for Good Article status: Failed, #1 reason, NO LEAD Section. This is the lead section on the Elimination Chamber: The Elimination Chamber is a match type in professional wrestling, specifically seen in World Wrestling Entertainment. This is probably why it failed its Featured Article Candidate nomination. The most detailed sections were the tables listing the Elimination Chamber matches and their participants. I can do some work on some of the article but I don't think I can change the whole thing without totally going overboard.-- Nascarking ( talk) 22:44, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Just like to know what you guys think about this. Orlando Colón was give the ring name "Tito Colón" a few months ago, but due to someone's lousy Spanish grammar the name has been misspelled as "Tito Colon". An anon has been removing the accent mark for a few weeks. I reverted the issue as vandalism, so did Majorclanger before me, eventually protecting the page from anon edits since the anon kept showing signs of ownership over the page despite being undone by multiple users. However, now MPJ-DK is also removing them citing that "they billed him as Colon". I don't mind misspelling "Epico", but Colón is his last name, it is prononced "co-LON" not "colon". The only precedent here is The Colóns, which WWE never spelled poperly either, but Wikipedia does based on the actual spelling of the last name. In any case, we should have some consistency on the issue. - Caribbean~H.Q. 09:40, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Some well meaning fans may not know about this and might try to revert such edits in good faith, so if anyone's got it on their watch list it might be worth keeping an eye on. !!

File:Kaneafterbeingunmasked.jpg So as I was editing Kane's article to reword his recent weeks, I noticed this image in his 2003 section. Aside from a poorly written Fair-Use template, this looks a lot like a screenshot or a WWE.com photo. This is just my view as I know that even cameras back then couldn't blur out the audience like that, the only time I see that happen is when WWE touches them up. Any thoughts?

I don't know if this has really been discussed here, but do we really need to describe moves in the overly complicated way we see them in PPV pages? The Survivor Series 2007 page is particularly bad. For example, "Jeff Hardy pinned and eliminated him after pulling his head over his shoulders down to the mat to perform a 'Twist of Fate'." Why can't we just say "Jeff Hardy gave him a Twist of Fate and pinned him, eliminating him." We can simply link to the page for Twist of Fate/cutter/etc. We don't see other sports/tv shows/movies/etc. overly describing things like this. You can go to the page for ice skater Kristi Yamaguchi, and it won't say "She performed a triple axle, a maneuver that consists of skating forward, using momentum to turn around and jump in the air, spinning three times before landing."
These overly complicated descriptions just clutter up the pages and cause these things to be more difficult to read than normal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.164.248.206 ( talk) 23:57, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

Ive tried to edit the Bryan Danielson/Daniel Byran section on his release from WWE, with a link to the elite side of the site, to be told that they aren't consider as a reliable source. And that I would need to start a new section here, on why I believe they are.
They work with many contemporary's such as Les Thatcher and Mike 'Simon Dean' Bucchi. They have broken numerous storys, including I believe, talking to Dixie Carter about Slamiversary's surprise.

Hello, my name is Hixteilchen.
I wanted to make a discussion about the Florida Championship Wrestling article. The majority of FCW fans and wiki users wants to take all wrestlers and Divas who are listed on the FCW talent page ( http://www.fcwwrestling.info/talent.html ). But there is one user 187.15.90.220 who doesn't use a wiki account and always excludes the wrestlers and Divas who appear on SmackDown, Raw and NXT. He calls it "Visual polution". I wanna make sure that all FCW wrestlers and Divas are listed on the page cause they also compete in FCW and have a developmental contract with FCW (even Serena, the Usos and the NXT season 1 Rookies). -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 15:39, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
"I doubt anyone is going to agree that it is vandalism. The IP has a clear reason why they think it doesn't belong,(...)it is clearly not vandalism but good faith attempts". Thank you a lot, Syrthiss. I help to improve this article since January 2009. Unfortunately, at my work the "login/registrate" link is blocked, and because of this I cannot use a nickname here. About the discussion, I had the very same one with another user (Yugiohmike) and we agreed and came to consensus to use the version without the wrestlers that do not have a developmental contract with FCW anymore (the wrestlers now on Raw, Smackdown and NXT rosters). To Hixteilchen: the "visual pollution" is about the excessive notes and references that are extremelly unnecessary since all of then are on the link posted by Nikki. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.15.90.220 ( talk) 16:39, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
"All FCW wrestlers and Divas belong to the list. Don't exclude any wrestlers.!". But the FCW wrestlers were not excluded. The ones excluded are Raw, Smackdown and NXT wrestlers. They do not belong to the FCW Roster anymore.
I honestly do not see the fuss here, they clearly are members of the FCW roster, if they were like Christian and The Miz who go down for special appearances I would agree for the removal from the roster page although I doubt they'd be placed there in the first place, but since they regularly actively compete in the shows I see no reason for removal. Afro ( DontTazeMeBro) - Afkatk 23:36, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
Yes they are contracted, but no more a developmental contract. And we are not talking about NXT wrestlers, but Raw and Smackdown too.
The funny fact is that since January 2009 I was helping to improve that article and none of you went there to say something about the section in discussion here. And now this user (Hixteilchen) just went there few days ago to call the way I manage the article vandalism. Sorry, but I never met a vandal that helps for one year and a half. I earned a Half-Barnstar for this very same section. Where were you all this time? And now I am just a vandal and the section that gives me more pleasure to work in is just a copy-and-paste of List of World Wrestling Entertainment employees with a lot of visual pollution. IMHO, to do a copy-and-paste of another article it is not the same thing of improve the article. It is preferable to put a link to the FCW section of the other article than to just copy-and-paste all the information from there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.15.53.71 ( talk) 02:08, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
Sorry for the grammar, I was sleepy. And I am not acting like you said. I was talking just about the scope of the section. "Hix" is doing just a copy-and-paste of another article. If C&P is the right thing to do, just put a link in the article. And it is not polite to say that the opinion of someone that just want to help is irrelevant.
I am not acting like the article is mine. And if I am the only one who wants to remove wrestlers no more in development, why the section was the same for one year and a half? Clearly, I am not the only one who have edited the article all this time. The Half-Barnstar that I earned for this very same section proves it.
It legitimizes nothing, but proves that a consensus was previuosly reached. And if I am not wrong, we are talking about consensus here.
"The Half Barnstar is awarded for excellence in Cooperation, especially for productive editing together with someone who holds diametrically opposed viewpoints.". Sorry, but to cooperate with someone who holds diametrically opposed viewpoints, a consensus needs to be reached. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.15.53.71 ( talk) 13:41, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
Dude, You act like every article you discuss you must get your way or you will die, also, as I see it people who compete on Raw, Smackdown, or NXT don't need to be repeated on another list of people in the same company. Hypothetically, say that John Cena made a guest appearance on FCW and fought a match would he have to be on FCW Roster since he fought?-- Curtis23's Us al ions 03:49, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
Can people not infer anymore? If you want to hear me I'd say that if you fight in the main roster and also fight in FCW you should not be stated on the FCW page just because they fight in the main roster which means they fight a more important role or you could say they are also technically a main roster person just developing more skills in FCW regularly so no I don't think they should be on the FCW page just on the WWE Employees page. Are you happy with that Feedback?-- Curtis23's Us al ions 02:39, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Consensus is clear. 5 editors agree on something while only 1 disagrees. Curtis had a misunderstanding, but that has already been addressed and Curtis agrees with the consensus made clear by everyone else. The IP who started the problem in the first place is the only one who disagrees. There is a consensus, and 1 person disagreeing won't damage it. As for your questions, (1) this isn't a WP:RS problem, (2) This isn't a WP:IMPROVE problem and (3) this isn't a WP:FORK problem. This is just 2 disagreeing good faith views on a situation where WP:CONSENSUS needs to take place. Considering the agreeing statements by MPJ-DK, Afro, Hix, Curtis and I, consensus is clear. Feed back (talk) 17:17, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Just because I agree with this after Feedback persuaded me to his side you rant to me saying "And thank again, Curtis". I have a right to have my own views, tough if you think differently,187.15.111.179. PS Sign your comments.-- Curtis23's Us al ions 21:52, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
Hey, Curtis, are you crazy? Easy there, boy. I did not rant. I really thanked you for understanding my point of view. And to Feedback: "they are talent". Of course they are. No one here are saying that they are not. But the "talents" are the actual roster and the alumni. If you watch the TV show you will notice the commentators saying that they are from Raw, SmackDown or NXT. And you did not comment about the year Curt Hawkins competed regularly just there and were not on the "talent page" (the same with Shad now).
I have unprotected the article, Feedback addressed my concerns. I ask that 187.X please abide by the consensus and not revert the article to their preferred version. Thanks everyone for the discussion. Syrthiss ( talk) 11:30, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi. I have seen that we have incremented the number of C&A. It's good, but I thini that a lot of the C&A are very irrelevant. Por example, we put that Yosi Tatsu is teh Pre WrestleMania 2010 Battle Royal winner, but it's only a normal Battle Royal before WM, Tatsu never won a championship or similar. Also, in his WWE profile, I don't see the battle royal as a C&A. WWE.com sais that tatsu don't win any C&A. Also, the runner-up. I think that the runner up is an accomplishments. We say that X Pac is the Runner up of the HOTR, but be a Runner up isn't a accomplishments, win the KOTR is a accomplishments. In that case, we can say that Randy Orton is the Runner-Up of the 2006 Royal Rumble because he was eliminated by Mysterio. -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 18:49, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Alert to members involved in protecting the WWE article from Screwball23. He's canvassing again and I've told one of the receivers (who I think may be an admin) to watch out. His latest "line by line rebuttal" section is the last straw as far as I'm concerned and this disruption has gone on for long enough and is showing no signs of stopping in my opinion. I'd like to put to a vote that we - as a group - take some action against him through ArbCom or something close to it.

I presented the material line-by-line to make it very clear that this is verifiable and to encourage a fair evaluation of the additions I have proposed.

Just a query (and an advance warning for any potential movement) about the World Heavyweight Championship (WWE) article. With Rey Mysterio now champion, WWE are now referring it to simply as the World Championship again just like Rey's last reign in 2006. Clearly, it's a temporary name change for as long as Mysterio is champion so there's no need for an article move. However, I'm just wondering considering it's now the second time this has happened if it's notable enough for a mention and if so which section in the article should this be included? -- Θaks ter 23:04, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Hello! I wanted to make a discussion about the German wrestling site Genickbruch.com ( http://www.genickbruch.com ). In my opinion it is a very good wrestling site with lots of information and data about professional wrestlers. They do have many biographys and they always have the correct real names of the wrestlers.
Here is the reason why I want Genickbruch.com as a reliable source. The articles Melina Perez and Taryn Terrell don't have the correct real names. Melina's correct name is "Melina Nava Pérez" => http://www.genickbruch.com/index.php?befehl=bios&wrestler=865 and Tiffany's real name is Taryn Nicole Terrell-Galloway => http://www.genickbruch.com/index.php?befehl=bios&wrestler=8359 . That are just 2 examples. Unfortunately, at the moment my changes are not accepted cause they don't think Genickbruch.com is a reliable source.
But the German wrestling site always has the correct names. if you are searching the correct names it's better than http://www.gerweck.net and http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com that are already accepted as reliable sources. But these 2 sites don't have always the correct names. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 18:40, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
They check back all names. They have very good authors who know what they do. I have checked many names and they are always right. It is really the No. 1 source for real names of wrestlers. In the article Taryn Terrell there is Onlineworldofwretling.com as the reliable source for her name. But that's not her correct name. Her correct name is Taryn Nicole Terrell-Galloway. Genickbruch.com is one of the few sites on the internet that has her correct real name. And Melina Nava Pérez is Melina's real name (even the current source says it). So I say: yes, they have a real good fact checking system. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 21:25, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
Hix, The whole thing is written in German how would you know how it checks it's facts?-- Curtis23's Us al ions 01:40, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
I am German. I don't know what you mean with "proven fact checking system", I just know that they have always the correct names not like other "reliable sources". They have a team that is very into wrestling and many assistants from Germany and other countries. Check out different wrestlers on http://www.genickbruch.com and you'll see that they have the right real names of them. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 02:27, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
I have send an e-mail to the Genickbruch.com team with the question where they get the correct names from and I got this answer:
"I think I can help you if you write me what especially you are interested in. Depending on whether Mexican, English German wrestlers, Indy workers or American wrestlers that competed 70 years ago the answer differs / is always different. I will agitate this extensively but to talk about this would last too long. :-D"
So I gotta write another email and ask how they do research in detail. They have many experts (for Mexican wrestlers, WWE, UFC and so on). I bet they sure use Wikipedia, too. I mean 99% of the real names of wrestlers are correct in wiki. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 19:41, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
I just checked the internet. I used Google, Wikipedia and many American wrestling sites that have the real names. Genickbruch.com always had the right names. The last days I had no time for internet / wikipedia cause I gotta work. I will send an email to the Genickbruch team and ask them how they do research. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 01:02, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
Hello, I just got an answer from the Genickbruch.com-Team
The guy writes that he is responsible for the older wrestlers and he uses the "Social Security Death Index", he uses obits => Obituary, Books, Newspaper Biographys, Forums and other sources. He writes he hat a good review over the sources what makes him know which sources are reliable and which not. He writes their primary sources are family members. The team also knows how to deal with wrong information they get.
Other employees of Genickbruch.com also use the Social Media, Homepages of the Wrestling promotions and many other sources. So they check many sources and they not always but in the most cases have the right names.
I wanna ask you what are the demands / claims for wikipedia to Genickbruch.com as a reliable source. -- Hixteilchen ( talk) 21:09, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Imagine that he wins the WWE Championshop and the IC. Will he be a Triple Crown? I said this because WWE doesn't say that the won the WOrld Tag Team championship as part of Spirit Squad. Another wrestler is Ron Killings. If he wins the WWE Championship, WWE Tag Team Championship and the IC championship, will he be a grand slam champion? because WWE doesn't say that he won the hardcore championship as K-Kwiki-- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 23:27, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
As a side note, I think the "No future reigns possible" should be reworded. It implies that it is impossible for the guy to rejoin with WWE or come out of retirement. Kris ( talk) 09:40, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
I think that it should be. I've tried to move it but it wouldn't let me move it. -- Dragon slayer 619 02:51, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
Just wanted to point out, to any ambitious editors out there. Manny Fernandez (wrestler)'s article is in terrible shape. It has numerous typos, discussions and questions IN the article and very few sources. Kris ( talk) 09:38, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
I see that the Cliff Compton's In wrestling section hasn't references in the moves. OWOW says that Cliff has two techniques, the Domino Effect / Cliffhanger and the Domino Driver. But this page doesn't say what move is the Domino Effect, or what move is the Domino Driver. How do you know that the Domino Effect is a springboard tornado DDT? The fisherman buster hasn't references neither. Please, this section should be improved. -- 84.79.153.47 ( talk) 14:59, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
Just a quick reminder that this backlog elimination drive lasts all month. Anyone with good proofreading skills is welcome to help. If you don't want to get involved in the drive but have some time to copyedit wrestling articles, it would be great if anyone has a chance to look at Rebecca Hickenbottom, Dustin Lee, and/or Tennessee Xtreme Wrestling.

This is what came out of the Elimination Chamber being nominated for Good Article status: Failed, #1 reason, NO LEAD Section. This is the lead section on the Elimination Chamber: The Elimination Chamber is a match type in professional wrestling, specifically seen in World Wrestling Entertainment. This is probably why it failed its Featured Article Candidate nomination. The most detailed sections were the tables listing the Elimination Chamber matches and their participants. I can do some work on some of the article but I don't think I can change the whole thing without totally going overboard.-- Nascarking ( talk) 22:44, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
One more thing...you should probably withdraw the nomination of WrestleMania from WP:GAN. There are citation needed tags all of the place and most of the text is unsourced. I suggest slowly becoming involved with writing and nominating articles so you can learn the process. Nikki♥ 311 00:42, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
Just like to know what you guys think about this. Orlando Colón was give the ring name "Tito Colón" a few months ago, but due to someone's lousy Spanish grammar the name has been misspelled as "Tito Colon". An anon has been removing the accent mark for a few weeks. I reverted the issue as vandalism, so did Majorclanger before me, eventually protecting the page from anon edits since the anon kept showing signs of ownership over the page despite being undone by multiple users. However, now MPJ-DK is also removing them citing that "they billed him as Colon". I don't mind misspelling "Epico", but Colón is his last name, it is prononced "co-LON" not "colon". The only precedent here is The Colóns, which WWE never spelled poperly either, but Wikipedia does based on the actual spelling of the last name. In any case, we should have some consistency on the issue. - Caribbean~H.Q. 09:40, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
Not sure who has noticed, but I've been missing for the pasted few weeks. Well I plan to return to editing, hopefully finishing off the TNA articles I was working on. Now the reason I've posted this is I thought to ask if in the last month or so if any major changes have occurred? Also, if anyone needs any help on an article: a review, copyedit, etc?-- Will C 20:53, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
On the above page it says that Los Aviadores are the current fcw florida tag team champion and that they are the former champions. Can someone who now how to change it so it says that Los Aviadores are the former champions and that Kaval and Michael McGillicutty are the current champions and that they won it on july 15,2010.

Hello. Hi. Excuse me, I don't really know which user is running this Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional Wrestling or is the administrator of this project. But anyway, if someone can help me then reply me on my talk page. I have come up with a better idea to contribute to the professional wrestling articles on Wikipedia. I think that I should create articles, containing results of television shows of World Wrestling Entertainment, World Championship Wrestling, Extreme Championship Wrestling and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling.-- Richard "Wrestler" Lopez ( talk) 18:58, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
I don't know if anyone has noticed, but WWE appear to have reversed their decision and the Survivor Series IS taking place in 2010 in November. It's listed on the official website. Some well meaning fans may not know about this and might try to revert such edits in good faith, so if anyone's got it on their watch list it might be worth keeping an eye on. !!

An article that you have been involved in editing, Jack Swagger has been nominated for a good article reassessment. If you are interested in the discussion, please participate by adding your comments here . If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status will be removed from the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nascarking ( talk • contribs)
I think it's time to move the page since Hell in a Cell (2010) is coming up soon and then change the page to the list of events like usually.-- Curtis23's Us al ions 02:04, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
It should create an article called " Road to WrestleMania", giving information about this story mode that has been watching from WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009, bringing who the "Road to WrestleMania", which game has been and what has been the argument of each story. I think so.
Thanks for your time. -- Ponce ( talk) 00:09, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
File:Kaneafterbeingunmasked.jpg So as I was editing Kane's article to reword his recent weeks, I noticed this image in his 2003 section. Aside from a poorly written Fair-Use template, this looks a lot like a screenshot or a WWE.com photo. This is just my view as I know that even cameras back then couldn't blur out the audience like that, the only time I see that happen is when WWE touches them up. Any thoughts? (plus the website where its from isn't as reliable as one could ever think)-- Truco 503 18:06, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Okay. I've been in sort of a reverting war with user 71.176.59.101 about adding one sentence in the early life section about his prison time.I think it's not needed and that the prison section could be added to the early life section instead of having its own section down the page.What does everyone else think?( MgTurtle ( talk) 21:39, 24 July 2010 (UTC))
Hard Justice has recently been moved to Hardcore Justice twice due to the fact the 2010 event has been renamed this for one night only. I just want to get an opinion from the members on what should happen. Move or not to move, that is the question. 5 Hard Justice events to 1 special Hardcore Justice event.-- Will C 19:54, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
Today, My question is about the nicknames in the infobox. Have we to put them in the infobox or not? I say this because I have seen that you h¡removed the Dashing of Cody's infobox, but it stills in the infoboxes of Ted DiBiase (The Million Dollar Man) and Steve Austin (Stone Cold/Stunning/Superstar) -- HHH Pedrigree ( talk) 20:22, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
Well someone create this article today, is it notable to warrant its article? In its current state, I say redirect.-- Truco 503 17:59, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
The article has now been fully sourced and restored. Hopefully Straight Edge Society will be unsalted and redirected in due time. -- Θak5 ter 12:30, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
I don't know if this has really been discussed here, but do we really need to describe moves in the overly complicated way we see them in PPV pages? The Survivor Series 2007 page is particularly bad. For example, "Jeff Hardy pinned and eliminated him after pulling his head over his shoulders down to the mat to perform a 'Twist of Fate'." Why can't we just say "Jeff Hardy gave him a Twist of Fate and pinned him, eliminating him." We can simply link to the page for Twist of Fate/cutter/etc. We don't see other sports/tv shows/movies/etc. overly describing things like this. You can go to the page for ice skater Kristi Yamaguchi, and it won't say "She performed a triple axle, a maneuver that consists of skating forward, using momentum to turn around and jump in the air, spinning three times before landing."
These overly complicated descriptions just clutter up the pages and cause these things to be more difficult to read than normal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.164.248.206 ( talk) 23:57, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
This has been discussed before. No we do not have to use long explanations. We just have to state the main point. That article was expanded a long time ago. See Turning Point (2008) for an updated look. It is the most recent PPV to pass GA.-- Will C 06:59, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
