Since the last newsletter, the number of stub articles has continued to drop, while the total number of wrestling articles continues to grow. A list has been placed on the stub article subpage of stub articles of well-known wrestlers that should be fairly easy to improve. Please check it out and see what you can help with (even if you can only add a few details or a couple of references).

[edit] GAN Reviewer of the Week
The Good Article Medal of Merit | ||
Congratulations! Based on the number and thoroughness of reviews, I have chosen you as the GAN Reviewer of the Week for the week ending 20 April 2008. Dr. Cash (talk) 19:04, 21 April 2008 (UTC) |
[edit] WWE Films
Hey there i noticed you have dealt with the blocking of those who vandal this page in the past and was wondering if you can help again. The user 98.221.112.11 (talk · contribs) has vandalised the page 14 times violating WP:Crystal Ball. Thanks in advance Bencey (talk) 16:55, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Cardiff Arms Park
Hi GaryColemanFan,
Thanks for your comments, I will change the article as you have suggested. The references certainly needed to be corrected...I had planned to do that in the coming few weeks before it was reviewed anyway, but I will now also make the other changes too. Thanks again. Seth Whales (talk) 10:05, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] GA Review for Anstey Hill Recreation Park
Hi GaryColemanFan, thank you very much for the quality review on this article, and for fixing up some of my writing. Please keep up the great work and happy editing - Peripitus (Talk) 22:45, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] An editor nominating articles for GA, articles that I mostly improved
If you look on TenPoundHammer's talk page and mine, you will see that I've addressed this. I would have never listed J.R. Chandler and Babe Carey for GA status yet, for instance, and have stated my feelings on that matter on its talk page. Something good that came out of that listing, though, are your statements on what improvements it needs. I do, however, point out that the tense for that article's plot summary is correct per Wikipedia's policy on writing for fiction.
Anyway, thanks for the tips on improving that article, and I'll see you around. Flyer22 (talk) 04:13, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Kingda Ka review
Hello, GaryColemanFan. I noticed that you quick-failed Kingda Ka (article) on April 13. I was wondering if you had any ideas on what to do to improve on making the article on Kingda Ka a good article (or even better, a featured article. Please give me your advice for the article on my talk page any time you can, and thanks for the help! –CPGACoast (talk) 16:20, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Ivybridge
Hi you recently added a refimprove banner to the top of this article. I would like to know what areas you feel need additional citations for verification. Maybe adding citation needed tags would be more appropriate or if there is only one section it may be moved to just that section. If it is refering to the 2nd sentence in the governence section "[not in citation given]" then I will remove the banner and try to deal with this problem. 86.29.139.70 (talk) 15:36, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Requesting Good Article review
Hi, you reviewed an article I nominated, Flag of Canada, and passed it a few weeks ago. If you have time, I'd appreciate it if you could also take a look at O Canada, a related article about Canada's national anthem, and review it if you have the time. Thanks in advance! Gary King (talk) 03:59, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Battle of Marion
Thanks for your constant GA review on this article. First of all, the Confederates of the would sentence was fixed, more references were added, and most of the references were improved. Take a look at it now. ṜέđṃάяķvюĨїήīṣŢ Drop me a line§ 21:37, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Money Inc. is now a Good Article
I am satisfied that the article meets or exceeds Good Article criteria, so I have listed it as a GA. Congratulations! I really like how you thoroughly cite the articles (this one plus Jos LeDuc) and how you are able to talk about the subjects outside of their universe. Royalbroil 02:43, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bloodstained Memoirs
Hello, where did you move my questions to? Commoncase (talk) 15:41, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] New Project
Useight and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.
If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help. iMatthew 2008 18:44, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] How Dare You
How could you call dmurawski such a thing as non-notable, when he has fans like me supporting you? I don't see you getting all kinds of laughs, subscriptions, and views. Jealous? I think so. 71.193.87.216 (talk) 14:48, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Could you check out the loose talk page please, cheers. Realist2 ('Come Speak To Me') 23:35, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, ive seen him a lot at the nomination page and i just read all of his talk page, i cant even describe his edits, i never realised he was that prolific. Realist2 ('Come Speak To Me') 15:20, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks very much for your assistance in listing the improvements that need to be made to the TCI article. I'll get to your recommendations straight away.

Thank You Gary, that will help so much. Please assist, as I have placed the article in reassessment for GA, as it was not given time to readdress the problems.--~SRX~ 00:21, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Some good eating!
King iMatthew 2008 has given you Brownies! Brownies promote WikiLove and hopefully this plate has made your day better, and made you less hungry! Spread the WikiLove to others, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Cheers, and Happy editing! Have a nice, delicious plate of chocolate brownies. I though you deserved a treat. Enjoy! King iMatthew 2008 21:25, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hey, I practically reworded the whole Over the Edge (1999) article, since it really was bad. Do you think it has a chance now? Also, would you like me to archive your talk page?--SRX 01:34, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
- Would you like to do it, if not I can ask someone else. ;)
[edit] Dark Angel
Good work on the Dark Angel article. It looks 100% better. Also, were you done with commenting on SummerSlam (1988)? I don't want to nominate it if you weren't done with your suggestions. Nikki311 20:59, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

I turned the article into paragraphs. --LAAFan 21:18, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Survivor Series (1994)
Hi GCF. I wil try and get a look at it sometime in the next week. I have a little on my plate, on and off wiki, at present so I won't mark it at GAN as under review until I have the time to do the job properly. Cheers, Mattinbgn\talk 09:13, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Orienteering
Thanks for your review. I am working to address the concerns raised. Anonymous101 (talk) 09:27, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
I withraw my nom for orienteering. My reasons for this are explained on the orienteering talk page. Anonymous101 (talk) 09:17, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Sutil Channel
Thanks for the page move -- I didn't mean to name it with quotes and was surprised to see it that way... then equally surprised to find it apparently moved... and only just now found out the reason. Pfly (talk) 07:03, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Mushroom dancer
I think you were being far too kind on Mushroom dancer, saying it "Borders on patent nonsense": "Mushroom dancer is a an indie film written and directed by David Sexton. Little production on the film has been made yet, but it is set to be released in mid-2009.
Plot Set in the early 21st century, a boy named D. Sausage, who is the ridicule of his class, has his dreams come true. At school kids call him insulting names like sausage boy and suckbag, and his parents beat him when he comes home from school. One night while crying himself to sleep, the dandruff fairy, AKA the man of the hour, visits him and grants him 74 wishes. Due to his lack of greed, he chooses 1 wish, and his one wish is to ride unicorns and dance on mushrooms in a magic rainforest, and dances the night away. The rest of the plot is yet to be announced."
After all, everyone knows the dandruff fairy never offers fewer than 75 wishes. - Mdsummermsw (talk) 18:29, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] GOP
You have to give an importance and quality as I did to GOP and it should work. Thanks --Megapen (talk) 21:03, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Thanks for the barnstar
It's my second! I thought that the three accounts were sock-puppets, but they all seemed to have stopped being active, so I didn't follow it up any further at AIV myself; although I have been keeping an eye on the article in question. Glad to have been of help. Cheers. -- MightyWarrior (talk) 22:13, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for all your help on Over the Edge (1999)'s Reassessment page. It finally passed as a GA!
You deserve to present this
This user helped promote the article Over the Edge (1999) to good article status. |
Now time to work on it for FA, you think it might have a chance in the future?
[edit] San Francisco
I left some comments. I agree that it is not up to FA standard. Hopefully someone who's interested in fixing it can get it in shape. The sourcing is the hardest part because we can't tell what sources they used for various sections. --Laser brain (talk) 04:18, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
