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] Abyss
Even though he has a management role he should still be in Inactive talent because he is a wrestler. He did stuff backstage while being on the active roster but when he becomes inactive he isn't allowed to be on inactie while it said he was on active and where he is at right now. I know I should of put this on the talk page for TNA's roster but hardly anyone ever goes on there and you were the one to revert my edit so I thought to say this to you.--WillC (talk) 03:21, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Goldberg -Worth mentioning
It should be worth mentioning on the article in his WCW chapter that he was able to lift the 500 pound Giant (now known as Paul "The Big Show" Wight) in a vertical suplex position with one hand and Jackhammer him, cuz I've noticed that many people don't believe he could do it... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.53.208.218 (talk) 05:25, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
- That would need a source. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 12:13, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
- This is the Youtube video of that great moment in WCW history: http://youtube.com/watch?v=HIf_4x9tTq0
[edit] Barnstar
The Minor Barnstar | ||
I've seen you all over my watchlist making minor fixes, so have a minor barnstar!! ;) ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 00:16, 2 May 2008 (UTC) |
- You're welcome. And it seems to be a lot of broken links! Well, at least it's keeping you busy! ;) ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 00:19, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] John Morrison
As you seem to be at least working on the article in some way could you find a way to integrate into the article at least a note that his character is a pretty overt reference to Jim Morrison? I've brought this up before but it still annoys me that something so obvious and overt is still excluded from the article. –– Lid(Talk) 14:09, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Oleg?
Where would you expect him to be born? 71.116.23.185 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 03:33, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Thank you so much!
I couldn't have reverted one more time, or I would have broken 3RR, so thanks for this. King iMatthew 2008 23:06, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Re:WrestleMania 23
It's no problem. I offered to do it before, and I'm still willing to do it now. ;) –LAX 18:00, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Question
You too? -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 01:57, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, I'm talking about the message on the edit summary. I guess my phrase is popular here. ;) -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 00:47, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Watch out.
Watch out for the crap The FU08 is putting in the WWE roster page.
I thought I got it out and I missed some. It's all gone now, but watch for this clown.

[edit] Try them
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 21:30, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Would you happen to know?
- Would you happen to know why all of WWE's articles for this year are one article instead of looking like TNA's Victory Road, Hard Justice, No Surrender, etc? I think if WWE's articles are only one page per pay-per-view then TNA's should to. Would you happen to know beause I don't go looking around and you seem to know more than I do.--WillC (talk) 05:14, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Re
Use a ref name. The first time you use the reference, add a ref name parameter, e.g. <ref name="title">{{cite web=...|title=...}}</ref>, and the second time you use <ref name="title"/>. You can use it as often as you want. It's that simple! ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 19:09, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- It's no problem! I noticed! You've been popping up all over my watchlist. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 19:15, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- LOL. Yea, I've got most of them, and a bunch of other random wrestlers. Old ECW, WCW, some developmentals, indy workers.... It's quite a long list. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 19:18, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Night of Champions
See for the World tag team championship match do you not need to wait till its added to the night of champions page on wwe.com because at the moment it hasn't been added on wwe.com http://www.wwe.com/shows/nightofchampions/ Adster95 (talk) 19:56, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] New RAW General Manager?
Since Regal was fired from RAW, no one have'nt been assume the postion as RAW GM, quite yet but the McMahon's Million Dollar Mania will take place on WWE RAW. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.230.169.195 (talk) 23:47, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Protection
Thanks. Never have looked into protection. I need to read more of the articles around here. But thanks. I'll remember that.--WillC 01:09, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Okay. Thanks for telling me. I usually don't need to know stuff like that but it is good to know. Usually I'm just making links or adding matches to ppvs. But I guess it helps to know more.--WillC 01:12, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
- Same here. Just recently started expanding. Making Background articles for TNA ppvs and making TNA ppvs articles. Trying to learn more on here. Just problem is I have a short attention span. So I never can read a long article. And I also can't write reports that well either.--WillC 01:17, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Me neither but when I do get time I try. So far I've got Lockdown (2008) done. And I'm working on Sacrifice (2008). I'm not sure if there any good. I don't even know what I'm doing but I'm sure someone will fix my mistakes.--WillC 01:20, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Okay. I keep forgetting that there is a message board. I don't know why.--WillC 01:24, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
- Same here. I joined around February. My first edit was on Against All Odds 2008 then TJ told me a few things about editing. I just recently found out about that page. Also just figured out how to e-mail a user and make a page so it has been a big month for me.--WillC 01:35, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Springboard Cutter
I have seen it performed by using the ring ropes and not going near the corner. Colin Delany did. --Oxico (talk) 01:10, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Re:Ready
It's ok (in response to the List of WCW World Tag Team Champions), next time be careful not to remove part of the table. =D
- Things to do (me and you)
- Create a reception section, this should have like the amount of units sold, game ratings by IGN/Game Spot, etc. (You dont need to do it for every game, just like the original SmackDown game, the first SmackDown! vs Raw, and the most recent.
- If you can think of anything else to add, tell me, if not refer to the reception section of Crazy Taxi (series)
- Create a "Games" Section, write a brief paragraph about the different games released. Then provide a see also template that redirects to List of WWE SmackDown video game titles ( I will create that later)
- Under season mode, can you write a paragraph about the General Manager mode?
- We also need a development section like in Crazy Taxi (series). We need to write about the soundtrack, the storylines, and the extensive voice over that goes into the games. And any other development info. Also, try to find something about legalities.
- After we are done with that, we can have it peer reviewed and then nominated for good article. But after we are done, I will move this into the main space into the WWE SmackDown (video game series), and then I will move what is currently in the series article to List of WWE video game titles, and that can go to FLC.--SRX--LatinoHeat 18:11, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
