Ever since In wrestling section was removed, the significance of the persona section suddenly elevated. Not all wrestlers rely on their gimmicks. For example, the character of The Undertaker and it's interpretations is worth mentioning where as AJ Styles is not, regardless of how notable they are. I consider this a burden to have this section, considering so many of the high quality articles like Shelton Benjamin, Fin Balor and Becky Lynch are missing section. Even articles like The Undertaker and Bobby Eaton does not have enough information regarding this. Sometimes it's hard to find reliable sources and it is enough to add in the Professional wrestling career section (eg, Becky Lynch "The Man"). Though I am not considering a complex change in policy, I would like more clarification regarding this section on the wrestling BLP style guide. Thanks!

The "In wrestling" section was removed last year in June but I think that the section was useful in terms of professional wrestling fans and readers who used to search Wikipedia. It was a very useful information for readers as we could get to know about the finishing moves and signature moves of professional wrestlers and we were able to know the real name of that move used. It was a very useful information regarding professional wrestlers but I have found very difficulty in getting that information. Kindly revive the "In wrestling" section.-- Mark Linton ( talk) 14:32, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
This rule has produced some ridicuous results on some pages, for example light comic releif match Steiner & Missy vs Arn and Paul E as "main event" of the 1991 Great American Bash instead of the Luger/Windham world title match and various borderline TV enhancement matches as "main events" of SNME, which was deliberately structured (a la Saturday Night Live) to have the big Hulk Hogan world title defence at the start so that viewers could doze off in front of the support bouts afterwards. Some of these pages have had the main event relabelled "final match" but I think something should be done about this with this here style guide which seems to be at the root of the problem.

Currently, the way we address an individual who has multiple reigns with a championship but different partners for those reigns, we list them in the reigns table as:
Raquel Rodriguez (2) and Liv Morgan
And in the "Reigns" column itself, we just put the number for the team only, so with the above example, it's just 1.
I've always found this to be odd. An issue with this is that we don't have any kind of key that actually says what that small number means. We just assume the reader is going to understand.
Something we've been doing over at List of current champions in WWE is that under that reigns column for a tag team, we put the reign number for the team and then in small text under that in parentheses, we have the individual numbers for each person if different.
I propose we start doing this for all tag team championship articles. JDC808 ♫ 01:40, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
|team=yes
already exists, so we could add something like:Wrestler (NUM) | NUM refers to the reign number for the specific wrestler |

If there aren't any objections, I'd say let's go ahead and implement this. -- JDC808 ♫ 02:31, 23 June 2023 (UTC)

what if we made a separate key for tag team championship articles in which the description for Reigns for the second option, it would cover what the parenthetical numbers mean and those numbers are in order based on the order of the individuals. Or just update the current key to reflect that.
