The MITB thing...

Look, every superstar has the right to cut promos on each brand, but not wrestle on it. CM Punk can do it because he has the right to.SimonKSK (talk) 21:25, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

I'm cool.SimonKSK (talk) 21:40, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Re:Thank you so Much!

Sure. I would have reverted his earlier edits, but you got them to first, :lol: Gavyn Sykes (talk) 23:08, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your regards to Over the Edge (1999), but I dont think he will put it on hold. Which is why I reassessed it.--~SRX~ 00:29, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Paul London, huh? Awesome idea!! Count me in! ;) ♥NiciVampireHeart♥ 12:16, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

RE: SummerSlam

Cool. I'll probably officially ask the project in a couple of days, so we can get more volunteers to do reviews, help expand, etc. Nikki311 21:04, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Okay. We can try it that way. Nikki311 22:54, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Ummm...I'm going to try and make SummerSlam a FL first, and then I want to work on SummerSlam (1989). I like doing the older stuff. Nikki311 23:06, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Steve Eden (wrestler)

Matt, kudos on the SA AfDs. Keep up the good work. But on the above article you forgot the first step (AfD notice on the page). I have now added it. Darrenhusted (talk) 11:50, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

WBOSITG's RfA

Re:SRS

I'm still interested to hear his take on it. The human brain develops so differently from person to person, it is a wonder humans can even communicate. Everyone sees things a little differently, and everyone should have their opinions entertained. I do appreciate your input, however. Since my role will be as a mentor, it is best that I don't take a side ;) Cheers, -The Hybrid- 22:16, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Look, man, I know I'm a chatterbox here on Wikipedia. I know I acted as if my user page was a MySpace. I was just caught up in the moment! But, I've changed my ways. I'll do my best to edit articles, not just user pages and talk pages. P.S. I've only created one signature, it was for Bam123456789. Plus, it was after I came back! And, I retired because you brought me to my senses. I didn't think I would be of any use on Wikipedia.
Peace Out, Matt! :-) THE $R$ 00:05, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Hey Matt what does it mean when on the wp:pw main article it has the ga's, and the fa's and what not but at the end it has unaseced article's what does that mean and how do you do it that might be something i could do FINALLY! LOL. and hey I got WP:PW a new user! #1 Metallica Fan Your Hancock 23:11, 14 May 2008 (UTC)


How do you rank them?

RE:Vandalism

The user removed Montel Vontavious Porter from the list, which falls under the first type of vandalism (removal of significant content)--~SRX~ 00:33, 15 May 2008 (UTC)--~SRX~ 00:33, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

No worries Matt, happens to all of us =) Man, removing redirects because of the page moves, is a long task.--~SRX~ 00:40, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Like it?

You can use it if you want.

This user will make you famous.

Name Changing

Good job with the name changing on the WP:PW talk page. Very diplomatic. I haven't actively searched for other wrestlers with similar naming convention issues, but I assume there are many others. --Endless Dan 14:40, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

RE: archive

I got it. Thanks, though. Nikki311 00:46, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

WP:HAU

Hello again. The Highly Active Users project has gone through a complete revamping per popular demand. We believe this new format will make it easier for new editors to find assistance. However, with the new format, I must again ask you to verify your information on this page. I attempted to translate the data from the old version to the new, but with the extensive changes, I may have made some errors. Thanks again. Useight (talk) 04:25, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Africa Wrestling Alliance

I am going to bundle in the titles for this fed. Have a look at User:Darrenhusted/sandbox and let me know if you are planning on AfD-ing anything listed (that has not already been gone or is up). Darrenhusted (talk) 11:13, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

The bundles were a mess last time because they combined feds with titles and wrestlers. Fed and titles are easier to bundle. There are no wrestlers so there should be no problem, I offer you this Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Professional Championship Wrestling as an example of mass bundling. Darrenhusted (talk) 11:24, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Hey Matt, to be honest I was thinking that perhaps instead of deleting all of these articles we could combine them into a List of professional wrestling promoions in Africa, the existence of some of these promotions can be certified by the few online sources available. I feel that we need to expand the project's scope, right now most of our articles cover wrestling promotions in the Americas or Asia (WWE, WWC, IWA, TNA, AAA, CMLL, NJPW, AJPW, etc.), if some are able to get mention in newspapers (or their relevant websites) they may be notable, however we can't really expect to find many online sources due to the limited resources found on some African regions and countries. - Caribbean~H.Q. 11:44, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Definitely agree with you there, Carribean H.Q. South Africa's presence on the Internet is only now starting to hit a boom. The lack of online sources at the moment is expected, but surely what I've included as references is notable enough (for example, IOL.co.za)? On another note, iMatthew, what other articles do you plan on nominating for deletion that I have created? Have you taken a look at World Wrestling Professionals yet? In my opinion, the sources listed in the External Links section are sufficient enough. But, of course, the decision depends on you. Ajstyles tna roh (talk) 12:19, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Do you think it would be possible to withdraw the AFD? evidently not all users are aware that some of this promotions even if locally notable will have minimal internet presence, some are already opposing based on Google hits, if they are delete prior to the merger it will be somewhat annoying putting a list together. - Caribbean~H.Q. 22:18, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Its apparently too late, snowballed based on Ghits. - Caribbean~H.Q. 22:25, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Though the use of the walled garden argument is intriging, I fail to see how this is targeted towards a exclusive group of users. - Caribbean~H.Q. 22:27, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Re: Paul London

I have about half an hour. So what needs to be done on London? ♥NiciVampireHeart♥ 20:11, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Sure thing. ;) ♥NiciVampireHeart♥ 20:14, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Haha. I can't for some reason, but SRX will be my permanent name from now on. Mayby a few sig changes here and then, but thats it. No more name changes..lol--SRX 22:07, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Check out my sandbox for the first set of questions, I however cant come up for one last question for the WP related questions.--SRX 22:48, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Hey Matt just tell me what you want me to do and I'll do it...O and incase your wondring i'm talking about the EOTW lol. Get back to me on what you want me to do. #1 Metallica Fan Your Hancock 23:11, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

RE: IP

That is definitely suspicious, but LAX is an admin so it could be any random person he's blocked before in the past. The couple of IPs I've blocked for being Hornet socks always started with 72. I'm not exactly sure how IPs work, but the number has something to do with location, I think. Keep an eye on him a bit longer. Nikki311 23:34, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Hornetman has better grammar than that IP. Also, that IP is registered to AOL. Hornetman doesn't have AOL. It is probably someone else, like Nikki suggested. Cheers, -The Hybrid- 23:40, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Ok, thanks guys! King iMatthew 2008 00:03, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
If it helps any that ip came from London England. #1 Metallica Fan Your Hancock 17:33, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

Yes

I did. :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tool-apc (talkcontribs) 02:01, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Tor Johnson

Hi Matthew. I came across a Wikipedia article a couple of days ago on Tor Johnson. I've never heard of him before but apparently he was a former wrestler in his day. Do you know anything about him or if it's even true that he was a former wrestling star? CadenS (talk) 08:48, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

upset

1. he deleted both of my images with no warning and in my opinion no good reason. 2. i don't call telling someone that they should be stripped of their admin powers a personal attack.

If (and by if I mean when) I am in WWE will i be able to use them on my page?Altenhofen (talk) 22:29, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Hope ya didn't cheat...

EOTW

do you think that nikki331 should be added on the eotw section of the newsletter MATTtalk 23:21, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah just noticed that thanks anyway MATTtalk 23:26, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, I didn't see the section about the Editor of the Week. I can answer the questions right away if you would like. GaryColemanFan (talk) 22:30, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
Done. GaryColemanFan (talk) 23:08, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
