Thank you for wanting to help, but don't worry because I can handle the title lengths. TJ Spyke 04:04, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
I know that. Nevermind, I don't feel like arguing on this. TJ Spyke 04:11, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
This is getting a little ridiculous. It's only 10:09 PM. TJ Spyke 02:09, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
What the hell, why do you keep doing this earlier and earlier? How about this, you update on odd days(like today) and I can update on even days? That way we won't have to keep doing this earlier and earlier. TJ Spyke 01:41, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
It's not a big issue, but I have to agree with TJ Spyke, it's only 9:30 now and its already showing lengths for the 31st, which is a couple hours away. It doesn't really matter who edits them as long as they're up to date and comprehensive. Cheers, Dubbya9 01:30, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

I was just looking at your edit count and I realized you had over 550 edits to your user page alone. I realized that you keep updating your edit count like every few minutes, but I just wanted to give you a suggestion. Just edit it like once or twice a day, like in the middle and at the end of the day, so you don't have to constantly keep editing the count.
And if you didn't know already, you can use [1] to see what your edit count is.

[edit] Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of TNA X Division Champions by age
The result of this AfD discussion was Delete. (aeropagitica) (talk) 11:03, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] AFD comment
- I marked several of the age lists for champions, because it's simply listcruft and not needed. If this was a wrestling wiki, it would be fine. But it's not, so they don't hold that much importance. There doesn't need to be list after list about how old wrestlers are when they held titles. There isn't list after list of ages for other sports (that I know of.. at least). Wrestling isn't a sport (I realize that), but I'm just saying. Age lists aren't that important. Especially ones for lesser promotions: wikipedia doesn't need lists for lesser promotions that no one has heard about. List of UWA Canadian Championships reigns by length is what I'm in reference to. The promotion isn't that known: so it simply doesn't belong on Wikipedia. If everyone listed each and every promotion in the world, Wikipedia would be overrun of useless small promotions.

[edit] List of top WWE World Heavyweight Champions by combined length
Just want say I really DO appreciate that your updating Booker T's run on this list. But the Big Show's 'ECW World Title' is not meant to be a part of this list; so we should really reset his number to 118 days. This list is meant to represent the often disputed lineage of the NWA World(1948-1990), WCW World(1991-2001), WWF World(2001), Undisputed Championship (2001-2002) and the current WWE World Heavyweight Championship only.
The ECW World Title, WWWF/WWF/WWE Championship, Post-1991 NWA World Title (TNA), AWA World Title, among any others are not represented in the tallies on this page, otherwise the total combined days for Hogan, Flair, HHH, Terry Funk and The Rock would be higher. I will perhaps make an all encompassing world title list soon, but this is not it. Cheers, Pretzolio@yahoo.com 15:14, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] License tagging for Image:Gaudin.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Gaudin.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

[edit] Edit Summary
Hi I've noticed that you've often edited without leaving an edit summary.. so as a gentle reminder..
When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:
The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.
Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you. --ImmortalGoddezz 19:45, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Title reigns
- As I've already said on TJ Spyke's talk page, neither of you own the title reign articles, so I see no reason why I or anyone else should be barred from editing them. In fact, after a bit of investigation, it seems you've used that fact to your advantage before. That's just a bit hypocritical. MarcK 01:27, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- As I also pointed out to TJ Spyke, I'm editing according to Wikipedia time, ie the time at the end of your signature. The main page is also updated at midnight UTC, which was precisely one hour and 34 minutes ago. MarcK 01:34, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
- What does it matter who does it as long as it's done? MarcK 04:23, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
- As I said before (in fact, right up there ^^), I edit the title length pages after midnight UTC. I don't see any problem with that, especially since the main page is handled the same way. MarcK 03:13, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:2650946.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:2650946.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Please note that the image has other problems as well. It has no license and fails WP:FUC. Yamla 22:05, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
You said: "I marked it as coming from WWE.com."
- Well, you did now, but not when I left the warning. In any case, we can't use that image as it violates the first criteria on WP:FUC. It's a copyrighted image of a living person and we are only permitted to use free images in that case. --Yamla 22:08, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
- Oh, sorry, I thought you were saying you had fixed the license. The source is wwe.com but the image does not appear on that url. It may appear on a subpage in that domain but you are required to give a specific URL, not just a general site. --Yamla 22:08, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image:D-ardoin.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:D-ardoin.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
- On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- – Quadell (talk) (random) 17:19, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] WWE Cyber Sunday problems
I'm getting fed up with TJ Spyke. The main event is called Champion of Champions. It's been said on WWE television many times, it's the official name of the match. So, for whatever reason.. TJ (among others) have been reverting my changes back. Money in the Bank is a ladder match, but it's called Money in the Bank ladder. In his recent change of my edit "(It IS mentioned, its gone in 2 days anyways. RR and MITB are unique, this is just a triple threat match)" is his edit summary. Champion of Champions is just as unique, even if its a one time match. There is absolutely no reason to ignore the official name and just call it a triple threat. The event is in 2 days, and I can imagine others will be renaming the match to it's official title, and TJ/others will revert it back. I've posted on TJ's talk page, and gotten no response, so I tried that route. Any suggestions? RobJ1981 04:26, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- TJ continues to revert the page to his liking. I've reported him to an admin. His reverts are vandalism in my opinion. WWE calls it Champion of Champions, there is no reason it should just be a note below the match itself. RobJ1981 03:37, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
