I've responded to your message. Also, what project did you have in mind? Zenlax T C S 20:04, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
please stop deleting what other users are editing. This is a public online encyclopedia and it is not control by one user. Please be respectful of other users and don't delete information which is present unless its one hundred percent wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Evie317 (talk • contribs) 21:41, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
this information is important and helps guide people to understanding the entire story. It doesn't make sense to put information there without no background information to understand it. Biographies are made this way and are useful for comprehension. You can't just leave random garbage without understanding from where it came from —Preceding unsigned comment added by Evie317 (talk • contribs) 21:48, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
what are you talking about? ????has participated in 8 WrestleMania's?????? holds the record, which he does for match of the year. Don't you know he has like the worse wrestlemania record —Preceding unsigned comment added by Evie317 (talk • contribs) 21:53, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

your hardcore dude. come on isn't this a bit amusing. Your kind of the scary protector of wikipedia for wrestling. the jeff hardy thing was a joke, although it's true. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Evie317 (talk • contribs) 22:12, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
also before the beginning paragraphs when simple and to the point. However they have been reworked and are way too detail. plus it mentions most of that information later which makes no sense. I know it provides a quicky summary but all that info is not neccessary and should be simplified —Preceding unsigned comment added by Evie317 (talk • contribs) 22:16, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Blazers v. Lakers
The Lakers supposedly have a higher record than the Blazers. However, the team with the lower record beat the team with the higher record. I wonder... The Chronic 04:46, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
- Also, the UCLA Bruins couldn't make it to the championship game. I wonder... :) The Chronic 04:48, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
That's what I said: the weaker team beat the "better" team. The Chronic 02:41, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Blazers can't go to NCAA Playoffs because they're not in the NCAA. The Chronic 02:45, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- The Blazers don't have an NCAA team. The Chronic 02:48, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- The Blazers have an NBA team, but an NCAA team... just fooling around. You know, I've come to notice that some Lakers players resemble some pro wrestlers: Ronny Turiaf resembles MVP, Sasha Vujacic resembles Paul London (pic not up-to-date), Kobe Bryant resembles Mr. McMahon, and Phil Jackson resembles Hornswoggle. (Probably exaggerated last two, but...) :P The Chronic 02:56, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- The Blazers don't have an NCAA team. The Chronic 02:48, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
The Chronic has passed you the WikiJoint! WikiJoints promote... uh... promote... help with... do... wiki... something... yeah... uh, what was I saying? WikiJoints help promote, uh, wiki stuff... and help with... {{subst:User:Krimpet/WikiJoint}}... huh?
Well might as well start 10 days earlier. The Chronic 03:09, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

- Wikipedia:Userboxes/Games/Computer_and_video_games#Guitar_Hero. I'm planning to get Guitar Hero 3 too for the Xbox 360 once I get a job over the summer. Then I will finish "Through the Fire and Flames" on expert level. The Chronic 04:56, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
Reply
Well, it just got in my head, and I did the job ;) RkORToN 02:05, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- That was wrong with me, but the refs can be RAW, I just dont want to be pissed going back to the article and seeing RAW instead of Raw everywhere. RkORToN 02:13, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
Comment?
Did you comment on my other question yet, if you had any suggestion of my new design?--RyRy5 Talk to RyRy 03:30, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, I noticed that you redesigned your page too. Also, could you review me? Thanks again.--RyRy5 Talk to RyRy 03:39, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Whoa, I just looked over your page and noticed the "I despise the Boston Red Sox" userbox. Um, I'm a sox fan and I do like the yankees a little. Mostly Derek Jeter. Well, this is an encyclopedia so it doesn't matter what team someone likes.--RyRy5 Talk to RyRy 03:48, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Nice to hear...I think. Tell me when your done reviewing.--RyRy5 Talk to RyRy 03:51, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

On Wikipedia, I take my work professionally, so anything I need to talk to you about not relating to improving articles, we can talk about in IM another time. What article do you need reviewed? iMatthew 2008 23:18, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- I'll get to it as soon as I can, I'm sorry, but it will not be tonight, since I'm too busy. iMatthew 2008 23:24, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- Especially since I can tell you now, it's going to be a long review. Please look to see if you can find any more pictures, since it seems pretty picture-less right now. iMatthew 2008 23:27, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- I don't get it. iMatthew 2008 23:42, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
-
- Oh, ok. I think the pictures are fine, only can you either move one picture into the aftermath, or take one off of the event? Another things that is very obvious is the paragraphs in the background really need to be trimmed down. iMatthew 2008 23:52, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Bg done for JD. iMatthew 2008 23:22, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
This is what I am referring to:
Exception: Wherever possible, images of faces should be placed so that the face or eyes look toward the text, because the reader's eye will tend to follow their direction. Portraits with the face looking to the reader's right should therefore be left-aligned, looking into the text of the article. Where this is the lead image, it may be appropriate to move the Table of Contents to the right by using {{TOCright}}. Since faces are not perfectly symmetrical, it is generally inadvisable to use photo-editing software to reverse a right-facing portrait image; however, some editors employ this controversial technique when it does not alter obvious non-symmetrical features, such as Mikhail Gorbachev's birthmark, or make text in the image unreadable.
The to-do list is always open. I'll get to those comments from JD in a few minutes. iMatthew 2008 18:52, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
I'm Waiting
I have beem waiting for you to review me. Please don't hate me for being a Red Sox fan.--RyRy5 Talk to RyRy 01:55, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Guess Who's Back
For Fulltime--~SRS~ 00:26, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, I just won't be writing PPV's anymore. Check it out, I nominated our list for featured list in June, hopefully it passes.--~SRS~ 02:24, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Happy 18th Birthday
Just dropped by your page and since you reveal your birthday to everyone this is your reward. Blue is a great color, ive always liked it and its the color of the sky and the ocean top to bottom. Have a t color=green>08]] 20:32, 14 April 2008 (UTC)happy day, i dont know too many girls who are into wrestling i guess your an exception or maybe i dont know enough girls. Its probably the latter. All the best also for your Lakers in the playoffs, in the Wild Wild West anything can happen. Thank ya
Roadrunnerz45 (talk) has given you a WikiCake! WikiCakes promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day a little better. Spread the WikiLove by giving someone else a cake, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Bon appetit!
Spread the tastiness of cakes by adding {{subst:GiveCake}} to their talk page with a friendly message.
Hey happy birthday Blue!! Since RoadRunnerz has revealed that you're 18 now, have some champagne! Hope you don't live in one of the states where the drinking age is 21!! ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 16:41, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
LOL, well that's all right then. ;) ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 18:14, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Not really tbh. I'm not in a strenous editing type of mood. I'm just randomy adding the {{WWEPPV}} template to PPV articles that don't have it. It's something that doesn't require a lot of brain power right now. Plus I am supposed to be expanding In Your House 13: Final Four. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 18:20, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
Ok, any chance I can get you to review Yao Ming at WP:GAN? iMatthew 2008 20:24, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Nope. iMatthew 2008 20:30, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
If you'd like to work with me on List of WCW Hardcore Champions, then sure. I'll probably be ready to start working on it when I'm done with my current reviews on my to-do list. iMatthew 2008 22:47, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
I don't see the problem.... iMatthew 2008 23:22, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
Yup! iMatthew 2008 23:48, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Nope, who you thinking about adding. I think GCF vs. D.M.N. would be good. iMatthew 2008 23:52, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for nominating me, I really appreciate it. Although, you were off on the edit count (by about 1000). ;) –LAX 23:53, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
- Oh ok, remember when we tried sourcing wwe hardcore champs, took forever, I think that would work better if we made it a COTW.~SRS~ 00:15, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- I won't, but just feels weird..~SRS~ 00:29, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- If you wanted to work on a list, what would it be?~SRS~ 21:44, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
18th? You must have been waiting for that day for a long time.--Ryan (talk) 00:16, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, its hard to believe. Heck, I turned 18 last year and I'm enjoying life. ;) SexySeaShark 13:44, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
Whether I help or not with the actual GA review, IMO, is irrelevant; because, if, for some reason, you didn't help with the GA review, you would still get credit since you are the one who actually wrote the article. And, since I helped in the pre-GA review and made significant contributions, I feel I would deserve credit, even if I didn't help in the actual GA review. You get what I'm saying? –LAX 00:18, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- No offense, but I would have to say no. To me, you didn't significantly contribute, which is the reason why I took Unforgiven and NWO '04 off of my userpage (because I did not significantly contribute). Sorry! And, sorry for sounding really wonky. ;) –LAX 00:28, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Liam Miller
Just to let you know, I think I have completed all of the points on the GAC hold, User:Xavexgoem did the copyedit. I would just like to take this chance to thank you for an extremely quick review, and it was also a really good one. ;) Sunderland06 (talk) 12:38, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, I've been helping Sunderland06 with the improvements and it's ready for a second look. Thank you for volunteering with reviews. :) DurovaCharge! 22:12, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
Good-bye
Thanks Blue for the question, and I answered. By the way whats your favorite? Anyways, am gone for good, no more edits no nothing, have a great time!
P.S. If you have GH3 for the 360 let me know, so we can play together. RkOrToN 17:46, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
Justin Masterson
I created the article about a month ago. Do you have any suggestions to improve it?--RyRy5 (talk) 02:26, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Cool. I'll wait. I put Jackie Robinson for GAN but I haven't got a responce in a week. It happens. Nice to see your reviewing.--RyRy5 (talk) 02:32, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Hey! While your waiting, do you mind giving me your opinion on Jackie Robinson? I would just like to know if you reviewed it, would you put it for GA status? If not, any suggestions?--RyRy5 (talk) 03:12, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Almost done. I'm just making sure of something.--RyRy5 (talk) 03:31, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Well, I think I would pass it, but I'm not an expert at this, you should wait until someone else reviews it, sorry. Also, where does it say that you can't review Jackie Robinson because your part of WP:BASEBALL? I never read that anywhere.--RyRy5 (talk) 03:38, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Wait, I just remembered! You never gave me your opinions on Justin Masterson.--RyRy5 (talk) 03:46, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
thanks
Thanks for correcting Gojira LYKANTROP 16:33, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, I'll fix that all... Give me some time please...Maybe I'll have some questions later..-- LYKANTROP 07:50, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Gojira is fixed. Have a look over there and tell me if there something else to repair please. -- LYKANTROP 18:38, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
Favor
Can you please do me a favor? –LAX 21:47, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Can you reduce the event section of Survivor Series (2005)? Matt says it goes into too much detail, and I agree. If you cannot or do not want to, let me know and I'll just do it myself. –LAX 21:51, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you very much. –LAX 21:54, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you, I really appreciate it. –LAX 23:56, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- I'll see what Armageddon explains. Zenlax T C S 20:24, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- Absolutely; I will work on the Fatal Four-Way feud, Cena and Carlito, The Big Show versus Mark Jindrak, Kurt Angle, and Luther Reigns and that's about the feuds I will cover. Zenlax T C S 20:05, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
- Would you like to work with me on another PPV sometime? –LAX 21:32, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
- Absolutely; I will work on the Fatal Four-Way feud, Cena and Carlito, The Big Show versus Mark Jindrak, Kurt Angle, and Luther Reigns and that's about the feuds I will cover. Zenlax T C S 20:05, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

- Thank you very much. –LAX 21:54, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
The usual? I work the background, you work the event, and we both work on the aftermath. –LAX 23:57, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
- I'm pretty sure it's seven days. –LAX 00:12, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
Kyle Nix
Thanks for the very swift review. I think I've addressed all the points. Any questions, just get back to me on the Nix talk page, or on my own talk page. Peanut4 (talk) 22:04, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- You certainly didn't rush it. I only put it up for GA this evening, and was expecting a two week wait or so. I was pleasantly surprised to see the review today. I think I've addressed all your points now. Peanut4 (talk) 22:14, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Hey Blue, can you go on Yahoo please? iMatthew 2008 00:39, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
B'Day
Thanks for that very nice review. I started addressing your comments and objections. Im still working on the prose issues and citations. If yo have follow-up questions, please reflect it on the talk page. --Efe (talk) 03:24, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
- Hey. Thanks for the review. --Efe (talk) 09:43, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yah. That article is very lucky. Thank you again. FYI, Beyonce Knowles is on GAN right now but Im not sure if it will pass. It has this grammar issues. --Efe (talk) 03:26, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Pointers
Just a few pointers
- Wikilink publishers for all references
- Spelling uses British English instead of American English, so it's -ise and not -ize.

- IDK, which one would you like to get to GA status?. I wish Randy Orton would get reviewed, since we both worked on it. –LAX 20:22, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
IDK, maybe. You still want to work on it? I would like to work on a PPV, but Matt says that he'll only give pre-GA reviews for events that happened after 2003. –LAX 20:30, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
- Yup. And since pretty much all the PPVs past then are horribly written/not yet completed, not yet created, or already GAs, there really isn't one to work on. –LAX 01:51, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
I have been using JavaScript (JS) to fix the "RAW" - "Raw" problems, and now that you tell me, I realize it has been doing that with the refs. However, I do not believe it's that big of a deal to go back and "fix" all the ones I've changed. Anyway, I'll take Orton vs. Benoit, JBL vs. Taker, Guerrero vs. Angle, and Cena vs. Booker, if that's cool with you. –LAX 02:18, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Your Hard Work

As many of the existing feuds ended following the event, some did not. Notably, John Nitro continued to feud with Jeff Hardy, facing off against him for the WWE Intercontinental Championship throughout September. The feud between D-Generation X (DX) and Team McMahon ended after the event, as DX began an angle with Edge and Randy Orton, which would last throughout the year. Following his win against Edge, Cena began an angle with Kevin Federline, which started the proceeding month at Cyber Sunday and lasted throughout the year
Read Team McMahon. Apparently, Big Show was a member. –LAX 22:22, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
- Didn't stop to think about that. Anyway, I'm done, but it's not sourced. Could you please do that for me? –LAX 22:47, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Many of the existing feuds concluded following the event. The feud between The McMahons and Shawn Michaels, however, carried on, as Michaels teamed with Triple H to take on The Spirit Squad the following month. After losing the WWE Championship to Rob Van Dam at One Night Stand, Cena began an angle with the newly created ECW brand, which concluded in a match against Sabu at Vengeance. Following the conclusion of Backlash, Kane ended his feud with The Big Show and started feuding with an "Imposter Kane", which culminated the proceeding month at Vengeance.
That better? (Look at the article). –LAX 21:57, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- You mean Orton80? –LAX 22:04, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- I think the article might have a chance for Good article criteria. Also, I've removed somewhat not important information from the Raw feud; but, I did re-write somewhat of it. Feel free to revert, if necessary. And, I will put up Survivor Series up for a peer review, I hope that's alright with you. Zenlax T C S 19:36, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

I don't really mind, but theres not much left, and I can't think of anything left to do except fixing spelling errors when you see them, if you can come up with something else feel free to tell me.

- Blue, the source PWWEW.net, seems to be down. Would it be best to replace the dead links with other sources or do you want to wait until the website is backed up and running? Also, yes I'm really glad that Vengeance passed the Good article criteria and maybe expanding it to Feature article would be the good way to go, what do you think?

- Alright, that sits fine by me. But, when it comes for the article being considered as a Good article and the website is still down, we will have no other choice but to replace them with other sources. I agree, time and effort will make the best of Vengeance to be able to reach Feature article criteria. But as you said it, getting Survivor Series to Good article would be more impressive. Also, I've sent you an e-mail. :) Zenlax T C S 20:15, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

The main feud heading into Armageddon was between Randy Orton and The Undertaker. The feud began at WrestleMania 21, where The Undertaker defeated Orton–a Raw superstar at the time–in an Interpromotional match. On the June 16 edition SmackDown!, Orton was drafted to the SmackDown! brand. Two months later, at SummerSlam, Orton defeated The Undertaker, pinning him after executing an RKO following interference from his father, "Cowboy" Bob Orton. This led to a Handicap Casket match between Undertaker and Orton & his father at No Mercy. At the event, Orton & his father defeated Undertaker, and set the casket, which Orton locked Undertaker in, on fire. The proceeding month, at Survivor Series, Undertaker returned and attacked several SmackDown! superstars following a 5-on-5 Survivor Series match between Raw and SmackDown!. Orton, who won the match for SmackDown!, was able to escape the attack.
Thanks. ;) Have you been working on the aftermath? –LAX 00:06, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Congratulations! Based on the number and thoroughness of reviews, I have chosen you as the GAN Reviewer of the Week for the week ending 27 April 2008. Dr. Cash (talk) 19:04, 21 April 2008 (UTC) |

- Congratulations on being GAN Reviewer of the Week! One thing that I'd like to mention is, when you edit articles that I nominated for GAN, there is no need to say 'bold' in your edit summaries because I do appreciate when you edit those articles since I wouldn't mind if someone else helped out editing articles that I worked a lot on, especially if it's from a username that I recognize :) So, please either leave the summary blank or use it to actually say what you are changing in your edit ;) Thanks!

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 18:45, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

And I'm didn't mean to sound negative. All I've been doing on Wikipedia these days are checking new messages, replying to new messages and make minor edits here and there. Can't wait for school to end so I can get back on Wikipedia full time. Also, I just got GTA IV (so yay!). Other than that, I've got nothing else to say. Cheers, The Chronic 00:33, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Nightwing-McDaniel.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Nightwing-McDaniel.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:19, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Hey
Hey, Blue. Listen, I wanted to give you a proposition on what next article we can get to Good article status; would you be interested in helping out? Also, I've sent you an e-mail. Zenlax T C S 19:03, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
- Excellent, we should work on Chris Jericho's article and see if it can be elevated to Good article criteria. What do you think? Zenlax T C S 19:06, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
- That is fine, but remember that I won't be editing some days next week, as to you-know-what. The reason I picked Jericho's article is because I can see the article passing the Good article criteria and due to the fact he's one of my favorites to watch on Raw. :) Zenlax T C S 20:15, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
